It’s not like they exactly gave us speedsters to get stolen bases with either
Steals are a gimme in 2023.
Any suggestions for stealing against cpu on rookie?
I just press L2 before the pitch. There are so many catchers like Austin Nola that anyone can steal bases off of. Find those catchers and play those teams.

And then theres the moments...... Ken Griffey Jr for instance. Hit 1 home run, ok easy enough.... o you only get 1 at bat and the pitcher won't throw strikes? Going to be here awhile
Dude, all 10 moments took less than 20 minutes. Of all the horrible program moments we've endured and complained about... these are not them lol

Plus the topps now Aranado captain today boost contact and power vs left which he’s already maxed out on.
But isn't that how all captain cards work? They boost the rest of the team in attributes that they are already good at.

Hold down R2 so the pitcher can't do anything. Click L2 to initiate the steal once you release. Take an extra step with L1. Make sure the pitcher has come completely set. Release R2 and enjoy the great jump. I got all 10 steals in two and a half conquest games. I had 4 steals with Craig Biggio in a single inning with him in the leadoff spot by stealing both 2nd and 3rd each time.

I just pre-command my runner(s) to steal and if I only have one runner on base after I pre-command I hit L1 (not sure what button that is on XBox but I imagine it's equivalent L-Trigger)... more often then not I do this to "hit & run" unless I am actually working on an SB mission then I'll do a straight steal the same way... I tend to only steal and/or hit & run my runner on second if I have a righty batting and my general rule is 70+ speed and/or steal for me to send the runner... if both numbers are under that then I don't even attempt although I'm sure some lower rated guys could get you some bags on rookie... I think the only player I ever attempted to straight steal with that doesn't meet those requirements is Daniel Vogelbach and that's just because of the commercial the Mets ran right before the season started... him and Buck Showalter are hilarious in it... lol

At this point who uses 97 or below? Maybe good for theme teams
The big question for those who don't use 97 or below anymore is how much of their squad is expiring in three weeks?
Has SDS clarified if Set 1 cards can still be used for offline play after they expire? I don’t know why, but I was under the impression that Set 1 cards would only expire for online play.

That's what I use, the good old Ransom method. I haven't seen him on here in ages. Haven't seen his youtube videos show up on my recommended either. Gonna have to check and see if he is still making videos. He always had some good tips.

Pretty sure just ranked seasons you wont be able to use set 1. And there will be requirements for conquest and some other “single” player mode

Guess would be mini seasons?

Thanks to everyone on here who helped me with. The stolen bases now I downloaded two stadiums who should help me with the other missions

No, they have not clarified.
My guess is that any offline content specifically tied to Season 3 programs will be limited to sets 2 and 3. You could still use set 1 in
Nation of Baseball conquest
Default Mini Season
Any Season 1 or 2 conquests or mini seasons that have not expired.
and of course Play vs CPU -

5000 pxp is gonna suck, as all the players are hitters.
Try going against the SF Giants at the Sandlot. I have a team that is laughable…my only 99 is April Matt Chapman, I have 3 95s (Marsh, Estrada, Suwinski), 3 97s (Gurriel jr, Heim, Mateo), and 2 98s (Freeman and Wander Franco)…all of which are from the April and May monthly program. I alternate the order so it’s L,R,L,R etc…with a few S scattered in when I have them.
I hung 32 runs on the SF Giants today while grinding at the Sandlot with clear skies, rookie, and 1pm and I’m terrible…I really really am! I don’t know if I uncovered a secret combination that results in a glitch or not but the last 3x I did this and played the SF Giants it’s like the pitchers just were grooving it in there and I was basically just hitting the x button and watching it sail out of that teeny tiny field.
Check my profile if you need to make sure…and look at my other scores and you’ll see that I suck. I only scored 6 against the Nats on same settings with same team!
Every inning it was 4 digit xp. Try it with y’all’s teams and see if this doesn’t do the trick quickly!
What stadium is THE SANDLOT?? Is that a created stadium or something??? I’m only on a ps4 so no created stadiums for me

The cards are only good for collections anyway. I’ll do the stats towards Aaron or Wright cuz I already have Randy. At this point who uses 97 or below? Maybe good for theme teams
I will use all these guys in some kind of team building for the next RS program.
Good on you. These cards will go in my binder to lock them in for someone better. I play my best cards for League play. Done doing RS or BR.
These cards and the new Tops now will get me 10 away from David Wright and my last pick of season 2.
Hey Sam….Wright or Aaron?
I love David Wright fwiw. Rarely does a new legend I wanted in the game also come with immediate success but that’s the case thus far with Wright.

Does anyone know if the PXP from Holiday father / son cards goes towards the missions and 5000 pxp?
