@yankblan_PSN Can’t get runs as a team without an individual getting the RBI

I think it is kind of a useless stat… as its critics point out (not an o thought in my part), it doesn’t even measure what it sets out to measure particularly well.
An example that was given: one out, runner on first. A batter singles down the right field line, advancing the runner to third. Next batter flies out, and the runner tags and scores… who played a bigger part in creating that run? The guy who got the RBI did nothing exceptional or noteworthy, and his fly ball out, which would have been just one of 27 other outs, now credits him with an RBI… not exactly a “clutch” move, and far less important than the batter who moved the eventual run to third.

@The_Joneser_PSN I truly don't think you understand how hard baseball is. And how difficult it is to actually score runs.

I earned the Weaver spotlight card but it won’t appear when I try to put him in the rotation. I see the card everywhere else. Ideas?
-
@SalmanHOF_NSW You either are looking in the wrong place (SPs instead of RP/CP) or you have another one of his cards (LS version) as a RP/CP in the 'pen already.
-
Thx. I wanted him to be a SP.

The complete disrespect you show to Wilmer Flores and the SF Giants is disgusting. He literally led the league in RBIs for a large portion of the month and is still in 4th place and he didn’t even get a Tops Now card. You guys never seem to show the Giants respect when they have earned it. Very disappointing.
I completely agree with you. I was completely shocked he never got 1 card. The disrespect the Giants had all month with “spotlight” cards is inexcusable. All we got was a Yaz card for a walk off HR? Seriously?
All SDS cares about is HRs. But no, give one to guys with HALF the amount of RBIs Flores did… cough HOSKINS, SANTANA, GRISHAM, CRUZ, EYC. cough Give me a [censored] break. SDS is so clueless and out of touch it’s absurd.

Flores batted .223 and 4 homers for the month of April. Not really Worth a card in my opinion for the month of April only for RBIs
Hoskins had 4 HRs and he got a card… Flores had twice as much RBIs as some of the guys who got cards. SDS just pulls names out of their [censored] asses every time someone hits a HR and gives them a card apparently.

@trfatboy22_PSN, maybe when you’re a little older you’ll understand that confidence is a poor substitute for knowledge.
Some advice: read up on the Dunning-Kruger effect, and sit with the concept a while… ruminate on it.

Imagine being clueless in the first place and then blaming others not accounting for useless stats like RBI … sorry, had to say this … not liking something is different from calling someone clueless

… You guys are funny. Somebody in this thread had some useful links, go and try to educate yourself. I do not think you wanna be educated by a guy living 5000 miles away from the US
