With it being somewhat of a slow week in the game, we are bringing back listener questions to The GoodOkay Podcast.
Ask us anything below, MLB the Show related, baseball related, or just completely off-topic and we will get to as many as we can in this week’s episode.
With this being said we do have a surprise this week that I really think a lot of you will like so keep your eyes peeled for that.
Thanks and have a great day!
If you’re familiar with madden and them using a point cap system in competitive play. Do you think this could be viable mode in the show? Maybe have a cap ranked season
To clarify to anyone that’s doesn’t know. In madden they have a salary cap mode. Every player is assigned a number value. You can’t exceed the number value with your team. This means you’ll have to make tough choices to fill out you’re roster. Do you field a bunch of gold players, do you use a ton of cap salary on you’re favorite diamond card. It’s similar to BR but instead of drafting you’d be able to pick through cards you own. Also instead of playing one round you can play an entire season plugging and playing

Should Alternate Jerseys be required for Home Teams after Labor Day?
If you’re not trolling, you’re gonna need to be more specific.

Gotcha, I do have some MUT experience and I recall this feature. It’s like an overall cap basically right, but in terms of “salary”? IIRC, not all players with the same overall had the same salary, right? How did that work?

Pretty sure that was a white after labor day joke.

Ah. Had to look that one up, had never heard of that particular fashion rule before.
I'm still annoyed that we can't use locked cards (specifically old diamonds) in TA exchanges. In FIFA's FUT (the ultimate cash grab of all cash grabs) they still allow you to use "no sell" cards in Squad Battle Challenges (exchanges) to put towards a specific card.
Any thoughts on some creative ways something like this could be implemented next year? I feel like this discussion should continue for the benefit of the community. Especially the deeper we go into this year's game where our no sell cards continue to add up... to basically nothing.
Do you think they will make TA stage 4 no sell rewards and none of those cards show up on the market? I mean that's pretty likely right? So keep grinding?
How would you feel if SDS implemented a DH setting when picking your stadium in Ranked? Home stadium decision depicts DH or none.
What’s the best starting lineup (not including bench, bullpen, rotation) that you can build for 100k stubs right now?

Or if that’s too much, what’s the best 5 man rotation you can build for 100k
I listened to this for the first time today because I am all caught up on chiclets. I was pleasantly surprised. Subscribed via spotify and look forward to adding more versatility to my rotation.

Somewhat correct. In madden certain abilities or quirks can raise over the cap number on a player. Also value of position, such as a 90 overall QB might have A higher cap number than a 90 over all DT or O-lineman.

Does Pineapple belong on pizza? Should you be able to have pre-set lineups against RHP and LHP? Should DH be in RS?
@SchnauzerFace said in Answering DD Questions this week:
Go through each LS diamond and guess which guys you think are circumcised.
Everyone except those from Europe or a third world dump.
When I sit on the toilet too long I get Hemorrhoids!
Can we find a way to match players of similar skill in RS?
Is there any way for older people (30+) to be able to hit? Following pitches and picking up spin is just not possible at our old age!
And... Pizza makes me poooop!

You mean people born in the late nineteen hundreds? Actually heard someone say this recently.
Is it possible in RS, online play in general, to come up with a way that would pit zone users against one another and the rest of us, who seems to be considered as trash to this community in general, against one another. Zone vs Zone,,,, Directional/Pure Analog vs Directional/Pure Analog. There is no denying that folks who are good at zone hitting have a huge advantage at the plate. And saying "get good" is just plain dismissive. The reality is no matter how much some people try they just don't have the hand eye to compete and just end up as cannon fodder that end up rage quitting and that's not fair to either player involved. IMO it just turns people,away that could be putting more money into SDS pocket.
