I maybe am doing them wrong, I've started with the AS moments, got the AL done, got 5 wins last night, so I have the NL East done. 5 more wins and Hoffman is mine. As odd as it sounds Hoffman and Seaver are the 2 cards I want the most, don't know where I'll play Babe.
And yes, out of the 15 teams so far, the Marlins gave me the most trouble by far. Why I don't know, but it is always that way with them.
I think it's Karma with me...I've always hated the Marlins!

The AL Central gave me trouble because I am completely incapable of hitting Hal. It is to the point of comedy now.

Just remember who took out Jeter and the boys in 03

Scott only throws like 1 strike every 5 pitches. I had him to 120 pitches in the fifth inning. It was a sloggggg

Yeah I had a hard time vs Scott.
For some reason the Nate Jones from the White Sox with his funky delivery gave me fits. I just couldn't pick up the ball out of his hand.
I got him eventually, but he had me flustered for a minute there.Same here. I made Nate Jones look like a Hall of Famer for two games before I won that one.
When does Nate Jones show up? NL Central since he's a Red now?
White Sox

It does give you a chance to load up on right handed bats, something I don't get to do much. But yes, Hal is a PITA to hit on HOF.

I'm just going from the start and working my way to the HOF missions. I have a hard time picking up fastballs and am a terrible hitter. My pitching has carried me for sure. Kluber is just nasty averaging around 7ks a game. I'm through the AL and hoping to finish the NL this weekend. Not sure with new content dropping though.

I started playing HOF consistently recently and decided to go thru the HOF Moments for the "All-Timers Moments" first while I'm in the "HOF mode" and then take care of the AS stuff later.
So far, I've beaten the AL 2-0 & NL 2-0, AL East 6-4, Al Central 6-0 and found it interesting that my best offensive output was against the MLB All-Times Squad...won 13-5 and knocked Kluber out in the 3rd Inning! Hardest SP so far was Greg Maddux and Mike Scott. With Maddux, couldn't get myself to consistently get underneath his Sinker/Changeup and Scott's Splitter I couldn't pick up on. Fortunately beat both games 2-0 thanks to my dominant pitching staff.
It's been exciting and I'm looking forward to grinding through the rest to get "The Babe!"
Stick with it. I finished this afternoon and while the grind can seem well a huge grind, at the end its definitely worth it. My first game tonight with him, 2-5 2R 1HR 2RBI. His HR is the longest HR I have ever hit in the game.
