That’s the least of my issues with the game. I get what your saying but with the use of all cards now, it’s kinda irrelevant in the grand scheme of things. I’m more focused on how for 3 straight years they basically bail on us 5 months early.

I’m not saying I agree with being able to sub out the captain, but, with pitchers you may not even use the card supplying the boost so I understand why the boost is still there after the card is subbed.That was my thought. I could use, for example, a pitcher, or better yet a reliever as captain and literally never use them and get the boost.

@Dolenz_PSN I never use the pitcher captain for my Dodgers theme team in mini season. I just use 4 starting pitchers. I’m sure in H2H this isn’t possible but you can get by without using the starter in mini season.

Yes. But that pitcher is still in the lineup. Putting a batting Captain in your lineup, to get those players boosted, then subbing he out takes that card out of your lineup. But the boost still stays with the other players.
Yes, they lose a bench player. But when has someone used all 4 of their bench players in a 9 inning game.
And don't get me started on the ones who start Randy, for an ex, and then bring in Donaldson in the 6th, then close out the game with a relief pitcher.
The only way to sum it up is that people don't care about sportsmanship. All they care about is a win.

Not sure what the big deal is here. If Captain Ripken or Rollins were still insane in price then I would understand, but this exploit is available to everyone. Immediately subbing the player doesn't cost anything but one bench spot. I don't see the importance here.
-
I don’t either. Everyone on my team is already maxed out in every category. If anything to use Ripken for example to its max benefit I have to take out some players and use others who are lesser players even with the boost.

Agree … but that is no exploit (as everybods incl. SDS has said multiple times). It is a substitution which costs you a bench spot

They must not be enforcing the other one either. Just watched someone, in an Event game, show the Ripken boost and Ripken wasn't even on their team.
Kicker is their whole lineup, including the two bench players they used, were all P5.

Yes, but you should make one thing clear: You are mixing the captain glitch thing and put everything together. There is 2 kind of captains stuff:- Use Captain, sub him in game —> legal substitution —> no glitch (see cbrev abobe)
- USe captain boost, captain is not even on the team —> glitch, SDS is investigating (see cbrev above)
If you get this straight, maybe this will help

I just mentioned trying the Ripken boost 4 posted above and that it actually made my team worse. I had to remove better players with durability lower than 99 before their parallel and the players who came in didn’t get ratings as good as the removed players even with the Ripken boost. Whoever is using it must have some pretty weak players and isn’t a “top player” as described in all these posts. I’m far from a top player and don’t have an entire team of P5 players.

Yes. I now know the difference. This particular user didn't even have Ripken on his team.
