Who has been your Ruth program MVP so far?
-
Bellinger. I hit at least 3 walk off home runs with him, one of them was the one vs the AL on hof.
-
Nolan Ryan mowed down every single team for me. On the hitting side it was probably Jimmy Rollins, dude hit a game tying homer for me in the 9th of the last HOF game in a 2 strike count... never been more hyped in my life
-
Mike Schmidt and Trevor Hoffman
-
Easily Maddux. I'm pretty bad at hitting, but he makes me look like a master in comparison to his victims.
-
Any card with 100+ power since anything below that is just a weak out

Mine's gotta be Lofton at lead off, timely hits, elite CF D and game changing speed on the bases. Reggie is runner up
Edit: I was going to revise mine with Maddux and Rollins split. I shut out all of the HOF NL divisions 18 innings straight. I ran an all diamond infield along with his diamond fielding and NOTHING got through
Maddux has got to be the first pitcher where I feel like I have had complete control of the game and made THIS AI feel absolutely clueless
JIM THOME
-
Started players league Blake Snell every game. Probably only gave up 1 or 2 runs the entire program.
Also Kike’s Topps card hit a couple solo shots that kept me from having to go into a 4th inning
-
For the 9-inning game, it was Biggio who hit two of the four solo shots in a 4-2 victory and he led off the game with one.
-
There were two guys on my team that would consistently get hits/home runs when I really needed them.
David Ortiz and Ernie Banks. I swear every game winning RBI came from one of those two. -
Trout and Kendall
Trout cause I just mash with him and Kendall has been an onbase machine at the bottom of the line up. Kendall has extended inning 3 times for a late pinch hit that have lead to runs. Really love that Kendal card.
Have I mention how much I love the Kendal card before?
Kendal!!!!
-
I’ve set two lineups, one for vs. RHP and one for vs. LHP. Hornsby has crushed either way. But against RHP, I’ve used POTM Grandal and he’s come up big.
-
- Didi 2) Cano 3) Orel

I’ve just been doing the Hall of fame ones so far. I’m 7-0 riding the Ryan Express.
Pretty much this for me. I did all the MLB 6 and 9 inn HOF games with either Hal or Nolan as the pitcher and just trying new cards as hitters. CPU cannot score to save their lives. I gave up 2 runs in one game 1 in another, shutouts in all the rest, and won them all. Not looking forward to the 30 All Star games at all though.
-
Wanna know what makes this game so dang great? Look at the different names that have been listed. It’s not just the same 3-5 same guys. It’s a laundry list of different types.
Thank you SDS for not becoming EA or 2K......yet
-
Just finished all 30 AS games...Nolan Ryan allowed 3 runs total in 80+ innings, his FB blew everyone away.
For hitting its a tie, both Larry Walker and Rogers Hornsby killed it.
Also Bellinger def did not save for 1 HR, but really gonna make me consider frank thomas if hes a 7th inning boss, or hopefully gehrig at one point (no chance i get ruth, I BARELY scraped through AS, and honestly I dont see the fun in subjecting myself to that)
-
Award Trout and Prime Mickey killed the ball, and Kluber was very reliable.
Jackie Robinson (his D at 3rd and gap hits) and Eric Davis (his D in Center along with clutch batting) are worth mentioning too.My various Bronze fielders at 3rd, were my biggest disappointments. Hard hit grounders went right through them....which is why I put Jackie there.
Also, while HR Cano was excellent at hitting homeruns, his defense at 2nd was terrible. He got like 3-4 errors. -
