@Blind_Bleeder_PSN, pretty good start for Morris on opening night... happy for him that he's starting games now (and doing well, it seems), but sure would have liked to see him in the pen for the big club these last couple of days.

It was a good outing. It’s a shame they held him to 80 pitches. I don’t know how’d he’d do out of the pen, but I’m hoping to see him in Sac with the A’s.

He should pitch next week when the Aviators are in town. I’ll let you know which date he’s scheduled for (when I find out) if you’d like.

@The_Joneser_PSN I think Morris is the opening day pitcher against the Bees...

@Blind_Bleeder_PSN, just curious... why so high on Morris? Not bagging; I'm a life-long A's fan and while I've heard of him, I'm much more excited about seeing Jump and Nett.

What am I missing? I'd love to hear that there's a pleasant surprise (for me) ready to cross that yellow bridge to the park.

He's my nephew (in a round-about way - the half-brother of my nieces and nephews), and I've been watching his progression for a while now. He isn't one of those "headline" players, but he is a typical pitcher - "never give up, and if they get me, I'll get them next time." We expect him to hit the majors this year. I'm hoping he pitches against the River Cats at least once before they pull him up, so I can see him play in Sacramento without the high ticket prices. When he does get pulled up, I'm hoping it's a home game in Sac so I can go see him in his debut.

Soderstrom and Morris are from the same area, and Soderstrom's father was one of his coaches as a young player.

@PAinPA_PSN

I was looking at the A's Spring Breakout roster, and Morris is on it. I wonder if they'll release a card for him in the game.

I don't have 26, so I can't see what cards have come out, but did Kade Morris (A's - Aviators) come out with the other spring breakout or AAA cards?

3/26/25…

I know I haven’t been around, but I’ll chime in.

I’ve bought the game every year since 2016, and before that, I’d usually skip a year because I (actually, we…my kids and I) played Franchise (until 2020). When cross-play came out, I bought an XBX and Switch and played it on all three platforms (when I travelled because one boy has an XBox and the other a PS).

I’ve been preordering for the last 5 years.

I won’t be buying 26, even with the 10% loyalty discount. I gave up on 25 very early and let my son play it (he plays RTTS mostly).

I know this isn’t an airport, so I won’t say what others have said. I do check in here every now and then just to read what everyone is doing with game. Have fun guys!

@sbchamps17_NSW said in Dog Map on 24 - Strategy?:

I ran into the same problem when I was doing that map, I just suffered through the Redsox taking my stronghold multiple times but finally finished it.

Ugh. Ok. I thought about forgetting the strongholds and fighting my way to a corner and building a wall as I worked outward, but this map only gives something like 1 fan for every 5 spaces or so.

I was hoping someone figured out a way to complete this map without all the repetiveness of having to keep taking the same spaces over and over.

This map has been unbelievably aggressive with me. I have had to fight for a stronghold that I've already taken, and I have to keep simulating the same spots over and over just to move to the next stronghold. On the second move of the game, almost all of the spots were taken by the strongholds - I couldn't believe my eyes. Some of the spaces already have 20-25 fans in them, and they keep building, while I am getting around 10 fans per turn.

If I have to start over, I will, but is there a good strategy for this map, or do I keep taking two steps backward to get one step forward?

TYIA

@MAGADonROb_XBL I played 24 on gamepass, but I have my account linked to my PS and Nintendo accounts, with the PS account as primary. I didn’t lose anything when I purchased 24 on XBox because it fell off gamepass. I’m assuming it’s because everything was saved to my PS account.

Since you weren’t playing 24 on gamepass, are you sure you’re using the same account you played on before? Did you have your accounts linked before and now they aren’t?

I’m not saying this is the case, but I’m just throwing out some ideas.

Luckily it's at Fenway to so pretty easy to just put one over the monster.

Is bad AI now making posts here? The AS Schwaber moment is in Atlanta.

I was just about to post that I'd been walked 4 times, all on 3-2 counts and the 4th ball was so bad, there was no way I was swinging...but, then, I hit the HR to save the day. Whew. This moment and the Rooker moment gave me fits.

@Blind_Bleeder_PSN
It’ll be worth it to get a monitor or get a better C series or newer TV ?

Compare the viewing devices you’re considering at rtings.com along with the one you are using. Take into consideration the price range you’re willing to go for, with the specs that will give you the best results.

OLED TVs and monitors have better specs than non-OLED. There may be some devices with even newer tech, but the price point may not optimal.

My C2 is better across the board than my 4K monitor. The game is smoother, and I hit better using the C2 (this isn’t saying much since, comparably, I’m a lousy hitter).

I’d let you see the difference between the screens in my “office” but I’m sure you’re nowhere close to the NorCal Sierra.

You haven't lost anything. When you linked accounts, you made your new account your primary one instead of the account you've been playing on.

Unlink your accounts and then relink, ensuring the account with all your progression is set as the primary account.

I'm not sure if I've ever done this before, but I tried it this morning on my Xbox (I assume it's the same for PS5) and was pleasantly surprised. That's a lot of good information at my fingertips.

Did it tell you who designed the All-Star jerseys, the last 2 seasons?
Eek!

LOL

How about a 65’ LG oled c9. Every
Ones always says it’s as good as a monitor but I wonder how my game would change if I were playing on a monitor over a TV

Compare it to any monitor - you'll see it would be worth it.

I have the 42" C2 and like it very much...more than any of my other monitors (and I have six monitors).

I'm in a quandary on whether to sell this card or not. The only thing I would use it for is the S2 collection, but to be honest, I'm not interested in completing the collection. The only rewards I have left to get are an icon and a Millionaire pack. I don't care about either of those things.

I don't need the stubs, but it would push my balance to over 2 million.

If there were someone who wanted this card in 24 for any reason, I'd dump it onto the market - I mean, there are 181 Sell Nows for $500k. However, if that person weren't next in line to receive the card, it would only help them by putting them one more slot up in line for it.

I'm not sure if I've ever done this before, but I tried it this morning on my Xbox (I assume it's the same for PS5) and was pleasantly surprised. That's a lot of good information at my fingertips.

4K is better than 1080p. 120Hz is better than 60Hz. 120fps is better than 60fps.

If your monitor is able to display 4K @ 120Hz, and play @ 120fps then there is no need to buy a new monitor.

The game does look and play better at these settings rather than 1080p @ 60fps.

If you do get a new monitor, make sure your video cable can deliver the optimal signal.

@LIONED-33_XBL Thanks, I'd rather not spend the money but I want to make sure I can be more competitive than what I am with a $400 TV.

This is what I have and love it. Mine is a 42”.

They’ve come a long way since I bought this, so you could probably find something along these lines in the price range you’re looking for.
