Sorry if this is obvious, but why is Trout so expensive. He’s not a top rated player and I only see him required for one set.
Am I missing something?
I get that I'm an Angels fan, but not a top rated player? Personally, I don't like using him. His swing is atrocious and there are faster players like Acuna and Tatis that have a better swing. IRL he is the top rated player. He had a 28 at bat slump. Most players worst slump is more like a 28 games or a season long slump. You need to look at his production from year to year. There is no one today that comes close.
If you're speaking of his Ovr, that's the first time I've seen it go down in four years. His play since could easily make it go back up again. Besides that, there's what three players higher than him? Live cards are almost always more expensive because of their sets. Usually his card is the highest Ovr. I do find it funny that the price actually went up after his ovr went down two points.
Yes Judge, Acuna, Tatis, and Guerrero have all recently had exceptional seasons, but not as consistently as Trout. He's our Mickey Mantle, our Babe Ruth, our Ken Griffey Jr. Six or seven bad games in a row does not make his rating lower. How about the last five games? Five home runs, four of which put the Angels ahead for the win. That's the fist time that's been done in one series. As good or better than what Trevor Story did a few weeks ago. He's not perfect, but he is the best in baseball.
With that pinstripe number 3 I'm going to guess you're a Yankees fan. Fair enough, they have had a plurality of the greatest player to ever to play the game. Babe Ruth is still considered the greatest of all time a hundred years after he played. Judge is great, but will you still think that when he's a Dodger, Giant, Astro, or, God willing, an Angel next year?
Yes, I was only referring to his gaming rating. Not real life

DD noobs always get a chubby for Trout.
Saddest people are the ones on message boards calling others noobs. Risible and pathetic at the same time.

No, the saddest ones are the actual casuals and noobs that come on here to cry and vent because they can't blame their own inadequacies on themselves so it has to be the game's fault. The Show 22 is amazing, once you've put in the work and work on your Sliders its a very good simulation of baseball, online and DD people can't realize that cause they are stuck on default sliders and pitch speeds. Last Spring Training game I played I got 18 hits, scored 10 runs..playing Phillies, Aaron Nola great fastball but very little movement and left too many meatballs over the plate, so I figured him out quick. The game before that I got 4 hits and no runs cause the opposite happened, dude had me on my toes, couldn't do S*^#. That's baseball, that's what you casuals don't realize, if you guys want arcade noobness go play RBI baseball or Super Smash Baseball. So yes, if some casual is gonna come on here and start talking [censored] you rest assure I'm gonna call them out.

You all are talking past each other. On Operation Sports, people have the courtesy to identify offline or online so that the games within the game don't get conflated.
That being said, you flaming DD people as noobs is hilariously pathetic. Offline franchise people are the gold standard, right? Riiiiiiight.
And I say this as a guy who would much rather play franchise than DD, but the mode has actually regressed the past few years. It was bad before, now it's just sad. And I'm talking about the mode, not the gameplay.

I've had LS done since about 2 weeks after release, but I've pulled Trout twice in the past several days. Weird to see purple lights with him. Thought I had pulled FotF Trout the first time...
Anyways, with his price remaining high, I've basically been able to buy almost everything I didn't have.
That's 3 Trouts and 5 Acunas this year. Apologies to everyone whose atrocious luck is offsetting mine in order to maintain balance in the MLBTS cosmos.
For me, it's my endless supply of Freddie Freeman

You did see that I started that whole thing with "Angels fan," right? I know you're the community troll, but please tell us why you insist on belittling anyone that's not you. I might disagree with someone but any time it sounds like I'm talking down to someone it's unintentional. I don't consider four years a noob, or did you miss that too.

Just ignore him, he's really not worth your time. He's not worth anyones time.

That's a good Trout right there, and that's the only kind I would pay for.
