    Unless it's fat in the zone don't swing early in the count,and be very selective of what pitches to swing at, don't swing for gappers or homers but go with the approach that you need base runners, always steal 2nd with fast guys to stay out of double plays, but don't sacrifice a good hitter that will get another AB for a lesser hitter but fast guy.dont get anxious try to stay relaxed and take one AB at a time.

    I just swing at high fastballs. I'm not really patient against the cpu. Just swing high fastballs and avoid the low stuff when in double play situations. I would also try and steal of you have 85+ speed at first to try to avoid double plays

    I agree, but practice against nasty lefties as well, from both sides of the plate. Also remember that no one is watching you, in Showdown, or if its a flailfest in BP on
    higher levels, so pause any time you have to to relax.
    In other words, take a '7th inning stretch' after every dang pitch if you have to!
    Believe in yourself.
    Try 'Challenge Of The Week,' to get ready for Showdowns as well.

    Also remember when drafting that you aren't playing the field so positions don't matter at all. Just get the best hitters. WHen you manage your squad you can put your fastest commons on your bench for the early rounds for pinch runners, greg jones is the best when you roll him.

    I always pick the same perks. Anything to do with exit velocity when losing. I will also always pick the players with most power against the final boss.

    Make sure you have at least one speed guy on the bench. Look at the commons/bronze to sub one in for trash on your bench. Sometimes you get lucky with an over 80 speed who is 64 overall. Then when you need one run sub him in, steal to third and drive him home in anything to the outfield

    @theBlindRhino_PSN

    • exit velo in the 7th;
    • exit velo with 2 strikes;
    • exit velo when losing;
    • exit velo with no one on base;
    • exit velo after 3rd straight out.

    First 2 mandatory, the other 3 mix and match depending on the scenario to start Showdown. I’ll double the 7th inning one (diamond + gold) from time to time if I pull both.

    Sidenote, question: do you really need to play the spring breakout showdown four times to complete the spring breakout collection? Sorry if this was already in another thread.

    Twice to get the 4 cards, but more storylines release on Friday, you need everything for the NL collection now, but after Friday you will be able to choose what to skip.

    I also make sure my bench has the highest speed it can, and put them in to run. Stolen bases are easy, plus, there is nothing worse than a double play. I also try to draft high vision, high speed.

    If anyone else is struggling with this I see these tips being most helpful

    DO NOT SWING AT LOW PITCHES
    DO NOT SWING AT 1ST PITCH
    VISION BOOST IS BEST
    SPEED TO STEAL IS KEY
    PATIENCE AT BAT PREVAILS
    BASERUNNERS > BOMBS

    let the st pitch pass you unless it’s a meatball if it’s a strike let the next ball pass too if it’s a ball next pitch is the one you want any guy over 60/40 speed/steal can reach 2nd any guy over 70/50 can get to 3rd always swing normal at only high pitches 90% of low pitches will be popped out vision boost is legit and key.

    I’m almost done thx fellas
