Ranked is awful

That's why I always let my opponents win.

You’re right. They should disable to PS button and handcuff people to a chair while they’re playing so they can’t turn off their systems.

Well, there's the plot if there is ever a Saw reboot.
"I want to play a game... of Ranked Seasons."

It happens, but I am able to get through 9 innings most of the time . Take the dub and restart. ️

Should definitely put the point per win back in place in the reward path as opposed to innings.

I’m not sure what they can do. The penalty for quitting has been a huge loss for SDS. As their servers are poo and if you get frozen and quit you take a time out period. There are far more dashboarding episodes this year than I can ever remember their being.

You just keep lowering the XP and stubs they earn from every game until they finish one. It’s been an extremely easy solution for years. Don’t give them as much stubs, and make them take longer to get to the rewards. If people finish 10 games in a row they should almost get a bonus at this rate.

So what happens when I quit because of something that is important to tend to in real life and then the next 100 opponents quit prematurely, so I have now 101 uncompleted games.

Since all I care about is winning in Ranked I will take as many quitters as I can

The stubs they give you for gameplay is essentially pennies compared to the cost of decent cards, so absolutely no one would care about that. The loss of XP would probably annoy people, but you're also giving SDS WAY too much credit as far as being able to even implement something like this. Let's focus on that "extremely easy" part.
Completely ignoring gameplay, this has been the most unpolished MLB The Show game I can recall. It doesn't seem like they actually test any of the changes they make before pushing them out, and are way too slow when trying to fix it. Do you remember when commons were quickselling for 1000 stubs? It was active for half the day before they could do anything about it. Remember people getting halfway through a mini season before encountering constant lineup errors which halted progression? Right now people still can't sell certain left handed batters because of the mini season which is no longer even available.
If they tried this "extremely easy" plan to cut stubs and XP for people that quit out early, people on Switch would never get stubs or XP, people on Xbox would get double XP but no stubs, people on Playstation would get double stubs and no XP, and no one would be able to sell right handed pitchers on the market on weekdays after 5pm. Why? Because their whole tangled mess is held together with paperclips, duct tape, and a prayer, and they can't seem to make any changes without breaking at least 2 other things in the process.
They need to drop Xbox One and PS4, start over with the game and build 24 (or likely 25 at this point) from the ground up for PS5 and Series S and X, and continue to make a Switch port that is somewhat on par with the other 2 until Nintendo releases a new console since they don't have a choice.
The band aid approach they have used to fix things for the past 10+ years is no longer working, and the cracks in the dam have been showing for quite some time.
