Polo ground Pete Crow and weekend classic
-
I just played my first weekend classic and the guy chose polo grounds with the fastest defense possible including PCA in the outfield. How is this ok ?
Why would SDS allow this on ranked ? It was impossible to hit anything centerfield perfect perfect because Pete crow is just too fast. On top of that I felt he was strategically hitting dink after dink. Anytime I would catch the lead the game would call my pitches I dotted balls. Load up the count and then he would absolutely smash it everytime with Vlady from the chase pack. Someone’s already giving themself an edge in a weekend tourney and the game just seems to reward them with BS regardless. But back to my main reason on the post … why is polo grounds allowed on ranked and if it is why can’t I change my team to cater to it.I’ll add the first thing I did was ask for a friendly quit. Of course denied it once he saw my lineup.

What is wrong with picking the right OF for the right stadium?
-
I use a fast OF if I play there because there is nothing wrong with having a fast outfield

I wouldn’t play dumb Yoshi I think you know blind siding someone with polo grounds while manning your lineup with the fastest outfielders is giving yourself the upper hand by quite the margin. Especially if matched up with someone that wasn’t expecting it.
It shouldn’t be allowed on ranked -

Thanks for thinking outside the box great reply I’ll considerate it

How is it blindsiding someone when it's not illegal to have a fast OF in Ranked? But please if you think that it is show me exactly where it says that it's illegal

You are missing the principal. Polo grounds should not be allowed on ranked. The person choosing it is going to do the obvious with their squad. The visitor is clueless and has no option to man their squad with the appropriate players for it to be fair. Both you guys are playing dumb.

You can’t be serious. You literally go in to every game not knowing what players your opponent is going to have and what stadium you’re going to play in.

YOU can’t be serious … there’s only one stadium to my knowledge where perfect perfects anywhere center left center or right center are immediate outs if opponent has fast enough defense.
on the contrary if you don’t have the defense for it they are rounding the bases. The dude for two or three inside the park homers off me in the beginning. Give me a break. If nobody supports me on this so be it. -

In before ban for posting a player's gamer tag.

Do what I do. Swing way late and hit 275 foot bombs all day at Polo Grounds. Even PCA can't get those...
-
@MarioMendoza935_XBL not a bad idea
-
Or…if having PCA in CF is such an advantage, you could also put him in your lineup? Every player has pluses and minuses and people have to make choices. I roll with PCA in CF because the defense is worth having a guy who can’t hit as well as most. But that’s a trade off people make.
I get that Polo Grounds is weird, but that’s why baseball is cool and I think it’s fun to play there. I don’t choose it every time, but I definitely work it into the mix and when I do, my OF is PCA/Carroll/Beltran. -
You got owned homie. Chalk up the loss and move on. Whining about it isn’t going to get your 40 minutes back.

Thanks daddy will keep in mind -
Strategy. There’s an old park I like where the LF is 400 feet. I put the fastest team possible in LF and CF. I pitch the opponent to LF. Load on LH because the RF is 320.
Strategy.

Don't we play to win the game? I need to call Herm Edwards and have his [censored] get on these boards!

Just keep PCA on your bench. Problem solved.
