<p dir="auto">True. I tried one time for kicks, got to 43 runs. I was happy just to score. I think I could get there... Just not sure how much effort I want to spend.</p>

Even if you have 90 plus percent chance you only get the card like half the time, how does that make sense?  The Showdown is pretty easy, and you always get the card.</p>

They'll just let you steal on defensive indifference.   Gotta do that - avoid the dp.</p>
<p dir="auto">This showdown is made way easier because degrom throws SO many fastballs too. This would be murder if it were like Halladay throwing a bunch of different pitches.</p>

<p dir="auto">Well first off, in your case: you need to start playing.  You don’t play much if at all</p>
</blockquote>
<p dir="auto">Well, you have me there.</p>
<p dir="auto">It has been a combination of other games (Crimson Desert, Forza Horizon 6, 007 First Light, and a few others) and the focus of this years game.</p>
<p dir="auto">Honestly, and this is just a me thing, I hate when earning stubs is the main motivation for playing the game.  I prefer it when earning stubs is a secondary benefit of doing programs to earn cards. I don't want to focus on programs where all the rewards are for cards I don't want or need and are all no sell. For example if playing to earn a free Tyler O'Neill would earn me some stubs to buy Terry Pendleton then that would be fine.</p>
<p dir="auto">But as a Cardinals fan you know how it has gone</p>
<p dir="auto">Simmons - Pack<br />
Pendleton - Pack<br />
O'Neill - Pack<br />
Torres - pack<br />
Walker - pack<br />
Church - pack</p>
<p dir="auto">That's just in like the last month.</p>
<p dir="auto">And I am the type of game player where if I am not feeling it or I sit down and start playing and am not enjoying myself thrn I simply close the game. Not just this one but any of them. Its one of the reasons I avoid online modes.</p>
