    RE: Thumb Callus

    I used to get it but then I started loading up my thumb with spider tack before games and between innings. Haven't had any trouble since.

    RE: Poll: Pick your ONE lock to go from Gold to Diamond 5/14

    Kris Bryant is a sneaky buy. His position could get swapped to a primary OF with a secondary 3B, which would give him a rating of 86 with his current stats. Given a slight increase to his arm (far stronger than a 67 or whatever he has, and he shows it in the outfield) and hitting stats vs. righties, I think he's a virtual lock to go up anyway. The dude is 3rd in WAR in the league, was a diamond in 19, and is playing like the best third baseman in the league right now.

    This or just go grab the rosin bag sitting behind your chair, mix it with a little sunscreen and you should be good.

    Crisco. Bardol. Vagisil. Any one of them will give you another two to three inches drop on your curveball. Of course, if the umps are watching me close, I just put a little jalapeño inside my nose and get it running, and if I need to load the ball up a little, just wipe my nose.

    RE: Coach/Ramone DD Q&A

    @joeythebigboss said in Coach/Ramone DD Q&A:

    MOMENTs is a core feature yay said no one ever . They gotta be trolling they know we hate moments

    I personally love the idea of moments, and I'd like to parrot another post I saw awhile ago on here in saying that it would be perhaps the coolest thing they could add (outside of stadium creator, which I can't wait for) if when you completed a moment, the game cut to audio/video of the actual moment or something similar. Something to make it seem more important and stress the historical relevancy and pertinence of the moment, which I feel is lacking in the current way moments are presented.

    RE: Help from the nerds/pros

    @hoboadam_psn said in Help from the nerds/pros:

    Yes. Turn on your hotspot. Name your hotspot WiFi and create your own password, not the suggested one.

    Boot up your PS5 and go to the network name you created. Enter the password, 💥.

    Best I can offer you with the information you provided.

    Quick addition to this:

    Make sure your phone is plugged in when you start your hotspot. Most phones will throttle connection speed based on battery connection and enter a pseudo "low-power mode" when they're drawing a lot, as is the case with running a hotspot.

    RE: Three newly created stadiums

    @worterror_psn said in Three newly created stadiums:

    I have played online against two people who chose created stadiums. They looked like they were made by three year olds. They played horribly...laggy, ugly looking. I would call them garbage. No thank you I’m sure yours are no better.

    Note: I haven't seen OP's stadiums yet.

    It's totally unreasonable to lump every create-a-stadium in with the idiots that take a template stadium and put a few crappy props around until they hit 98% memory and save it.

    My newest (and favorite!) one so far is a red-rock cove themed park with lots of beach-y features and seating for 30-something-thousand fans. I put a ton of work into making it look good, but I put even more work into keeping the memory down. It only uses 82% memory and plays about 200% better than my old go-to custom that was at 93%.

    Don't speak on this dude's hard work because you met some fools playing online.

    RE: DIAMOND Predictions

    Kris Bryant for sure. He's been really really good against Righties, one of the top hitters in the league against Lefties and his defense has remained world-class at third.

    RE: Sell Bay and buy valenzuela?

    I don't think it's worth it. We'll get plenty of great soft tossers as the year goes on for a lot less than 95k.

    RE: I believe we are getting a new Legend on Friday. Rick Sutcliffe

    They did say that it's an award card. That rules out Billy Williams, Maddux & Sutcliffe.

    I'm going with a '71 Cy Young Fergie Jenkins. I don't know how useable he'll be but per 9's will be great as well as velocity & control. One of his old catchers said on his command: "I could catch him with a pair of pliers"

    RE: Garbage player made ballparks

    I played in one last week where the dude had about 60 cows and 20 or so T Rexes behind the visitor's bullpen so I'd freeze for a good 2-3 seconds every time I opened the bullpen menu. As annoying as it can be, I had to commend the creativity.

    RE: Real Life Baseball Card Collectors

    Sorta off-topic but I've been thinking recently about how cool it'd be for Topps and SDS to collaborate and release personalized cards of DD guys.

    For example:

    I have 99 Ortiz in game, and his stats are stored for CPU and Online matches separately. Let's say I wanted to have a physical copy of his Sig Series card with the Online stats I'd compiled in game. I could go in through the game or through the marketplace website and order the card to be made and delivered to me with those stats on it and maybe my username or some other personal identifier.

    Obviously not a ton of "collectibility" for anyone outside whoever is buying cards of their own players, but maybe streamers could do cool stuff with them by attaching their own name to it? This would probably have to be limited to owned cards (driving up the price of some?) and would probably be limited to the game's exclusive series, so no topps now or live series for the most part I'd think. Could be something fun, what do you all think?

    RE: Players who get no love from SDS

    His 99 was pretty solid last year. A lot of pitchers never "get the love" that they should because of how good certain pitches are (sinkers, sliders, etc.) and their lack of that pitch making them borderline unuseable regardless of anything else SDS does to the card.

    RE: Liam Hendricks Is TRASH

    I have around 100 innings with Hendricks online (maybe a hair less) and he posted a 2.20 ERA. The biggest threat to him is, of course, the longball. To mitigate the danger, you need to get your opponent off the fastball EARLY into an appearance. I'm talking within the first 3 pitches you need to get a strike on a fastball that isn't a foul ball. I always liked to go 4sm hand side first pitch, because his 4 seamer will dance a little bit with full stamina. Don't bother throwing the 2 seamer if you're having trouble getting that first fastball by a guy, because that 2 seamer will get crushed since it's a little slower and drops right into where you're expecting a 4 seamer to land. As for offspeed usage, once you get that first fastball by a guy, you can throw whatever you want to as far as breaking stuff out of the zone. The curve looks like the 2 seamer, the slider looks like the 4 seamer. If you don't know how to tunnel and you're planning on using Hendricks. you'd better learn.

    Favorite Sequences!

    Against a Righty:
    4sm low and in
    slider low middle/away
    2sm middle in
    slider middle/away

    Against a Lefty:
    4sm low/away
    4sm middle/in
    2sm high/away

    RE: Luis Castillo

    Ah. I only ask because I heard that his 4sm can touch 102 (similarly to Tanana) when you get him to 4/5.

    RE: Perfect Platoons...

    My only real platoon is the occasional third baseman swap if I'm desperate late in the game. I start Groshans there but if it gets late I'll yank him and let Duvall or Babe hit (depending on pitcher handedness) and then throw Minnie in to play D.

    RE: Luis Castillo

    @schaqq_xbl said in Luis Castillo:

    I’m now 8-0 with him and is the only pitcher I’ve hit a home run with. Pretty slept on IMO.

    The circle change overall is a super underrated pitch. It helps Castillo greatly that he's got it as a primary.

    Semi-related question, what parallel do you have him at?

    RE: Circle change up velocity drastically drops between RTTS and DD

    Double check your equipment and perks in DD. They don't always update automatically when you swap and it's easy to accidentally create a different loadout and have stuff like this happen.
