@macdaddy-o_PSN said in 15 HRs from Seattle Players???:
This one feels like the toughest thing to achieve in the Griffey program. By my count you've got Jay Buhner Milestone and Dan Vogelbach Finest. There's, of course, the All-Star Julio Rodgriguez card if you got lucky or enough stubs to buy it (I haven't). And then, I guess Topp's Now Ty France, regular Julio Rodriguez, and maaaaybe J.P. Crawford?
I don't know. I've already done all the conquest maps. I suppose I could do a mini-season or the Mystery Map again on Rookie, but I don't trust most of those guys to hit 15 HRs against online opponents (at least not with my limited skill).
What are other people doing?
Mariners hitter cards
Julio Rodriguez - AS/HRD
Ken Griffey Jr - second half/Cover athlete
Jay Buhner - Signature
Daniel Vogelbach - Finest
Kyle Lewis - MA
Dylan Moore - Tops now
Mitch Hanigar - FOTF
Ty France - MA
J.P Crawford - MA
Nolevi Marte - Prospect
Edgar Martinez - BreakoutFor catcher use Cal Raleigh (i hit 5 home runs with him)
-
This was my lineup. It wasn’t too difficult. Just go against a team with bad pitching and have your SP be the lowest OVR of your starters.
RF 90 Dylan Moore
SS 87 Noelvi Marte
1B 93 Daniel Vogelbach
CF 97 Julio Rodriguez
3B 85 Edgar Martinez
LF 92 Kyle Lewis
C 76 Cal Raleigh
2B 88 J.P. Crawford -

2B 88 J.P. CrawfordOrioles, Pirates, Reds, Tigers, Royals, Nationals and my favorite to beat up on the Diamondbacks. There 4th or 5th starter (forget which at this point) is so much fun to hit against. Only problem is he's gone after 6 runs in the 1st inning lol.

Just stacked my lineup with Seattle players doing the reds conquest map. Outfield was Buhner, AS program Julio (he’s cheap), cover griffey. Infield had MA Moore, France and Crawford with Finest Volgelbach. Cal Raleigh at Catcher who hit 3 on his own with his awful attributes
-
Do a mini season game in a custom stadium. I think it took me 3 games. FoTF Haniger rakes. Vogelbach, Buhner and buy just the AS version of Julio. There are two teams that are just terrible, play them, don't even move the PCI and swing away. Good luck.

Yeah, but the Pirates relievers aren’t much better

This is very true.

I played this on rookie and got 25 in 3 games. BTW, silver Cal Raleigh hits major bombs

Ya'll really saying to use 58 power Edgar Martinez to try and hit homeruns?

Play vs cpu or mini seasons at home. Use the blank canvas stadium from Gomesdalegend (max elevation, shortest and closest walls) and set game to rookie. Mash. Doesn't take a lot to hit a HR there.
Or just do the ALW exchange (or the Other two instead) for the 3 points and ignore the HR mission altogether.
-
No one said it, but I wouldn't sleep on Surarez, especially with Inside Edge boost. But more importantly I have always found his swing a bit glitchy.
-
Play on Rookie at Dreamville Stadium against either the Rockies or Pirates and finish it in the first game.
-
Just stack your lineup with mariners, not sure if custom stadiums are onext gen only or are on old gens.. but download hangar and O’s on rookie.. should only take one game
-
Exchanges don't give you program experience though. I'd rather play the CPU and get the runs while advancing the Field of Dreams program.
-
I am envious of those of you who can use custom stadiums. The PS4 doesn't have it.

Yeah if you gotta resort to using little league dimensions, why does it matter who you use?

You don't have to, you can easily play at Colorado and still hit HRs on rookie. Or you can just play events and hope the one or two Mariner cards you're using connect for a HR.
If you're just trying to get it out of the way ASAP, its the easiest way. If you want the xp for collecting Griffey for the program, you have limited time to finish.
Why would I want to waste time playing a number of conquest/vs cpu games and hope these silver cards can hit HRs when I can knock it out in maybe 2 games? I still got FS, Sig, and award cards pxp to grind.
-
I actually had fun doing these. I did most in the Shark map as I didn't start that yet.
I stunk with Haniger's FOTF card, but ironically, he hit the 15th one!
I didn't do any exchanges, btw. -

Luckily Conquest at Rookie plays a lot easier than Mini Seasons does at Rookie! A few 3+ homer games in the latest Conquest map got me to 15 home runs. I stuffed my lineup with the best Mariners I had. I didn't think I would do it and was thinking ahead to maybe a Play vs CPU game to finish. (I was not going to attempt Mini Seasons for getting home runs. I find it is a bit too hard for me to get a lot of offense.)
Yes its crazy I struggle offensively more so on Mini Seasons
Your facing common pitchers on conquest. Be careful though, everyone plays with diamond defense. Not sure about the D on rookie though.
