    RE: Padres Topps Now Moment

    Even on rookie, I didn't think I would be able to pull off a five-run inning. Tried it once last night and scored a couple runs and gave up. Today, I was getting frustrated with a couple of the Torii moments and took a break and did all the Topps Now moments besides this one. Finished those and figured what the heck and gave this moment another try.

    Hit a homer with Grisham to lead off and the next couple guys got hits. The scariest moment was I had second and third and none out and Cronenworth was intentionally walked. I was certain the next batter was going to hit into a double play. Did hit a grounder with Profar, but they only got one out. Pinch-hit Mejia for Hedges and got another hit and then pinch-hit Naylor for the pitcher and he hit a walk-off homer. I'm not a great hitter, so this is doable. Just keep trying.

    RE: Strikeout Issues on All-Star, Advice?

    Unless it's right over the middle, I tend to lay off the breaking balls on All-Star because most of the time they end up outside the strike zone. And by working the count and getting ahead, you then get fewer breaking balls. If you can get them 2-0 or 3-1, that's when you can usually count on a fastball and tee off if it's in the zone.

    RE: Do you have to do the collection to get 99 Ramirez?

    Between the cards and the Topps Now packs you get in the program, you end up with more than enough cards for the collection if you completed the moments each week and kept the cards from those packs.

    RE: I cashed out on JRam

    @wingo18 said in I cashed out on JRam:

    What are the differences between this one and the prestige xp choice pack J-ram?

    Haven't gone too deep into all the ratings, but here are the big ones:

    Prestige XP J-Ram:
    91 contact, 118 power vs. RHP
    83 contact, 88 power vs. LHP

    POTM J-Ram:
    95 contact, 103 power vs. RHP
    125 contact, 125 power vs. LHP

    RE: Who’s your Top 3 endgame outfielders?

    For me it is Soto in LF, Trout in CF and Griffey in RF. I stink at robbing homers but I’ve robbed two with Griffey in the short time I’ve had him, including a potential walk-off homer.

    Also sometimes for fun in conquest, against lefties I run an all 125-125 lineup. It’s a horrific defense but crazy offense: C Piazza, 1B Thomas, 2B Brosseau, SS Mondesi, 3B Tim Anderson, LF J-Ram, CF Soto, RF Cruz.

    RE: Choice Pack Trio Worth $40K?

    Also, there are free Home Run Derby and Ducks on the Pond packs in the new conquest map. Which will further drive down the price of the cards that aren’t already in quick sell territory.

    RE: Torii 3H/2XBH

    I spent over an hour banging my head against the wall on this one. Then I switched to directional hitting and pressed up with power swing and got it on my second try. That method is also what got me through those Phillips moments and I should have tried it sooner.

    RE: Okay, Live series Mike Trout, how many times have you got him?

    Twice from Baller packs and once from the prestige XP pack.

    RE: Pirates Anthony Rendon moment

    I had an oddly weird time with the hit a HR off Verlander moment. Including a perfect-perfect to center field that went like 360 feet. Couldn’t square anything up. I spent close to half an hour on what should have been the easiest moment. The rest I finished fairly quickly.

    RE: 8th Inning Slump

    It took me nearly a week of trying it once or twice a day before I beat it. I kept getting to 15-14 and 15-15 too. It was very frustrating.

    The Ian Anderson showdown tripped me up a couple times too. A quick double play and you are in trouble. I had one double play in which Cobb hit a soft liner to third and the runner at third stood still while the third baseman doubled him off.

    Eventually I had a showdown in which I got up to 15-13 and skipped the Anderson showdown to be safe. I finally beat Kershaw, and the next day I played it again for some stubs and packs and beat it on the next try. Figures.

    RE: Do you think we will get a third wave of Run It Back cards?

    I would settle for them switching up the teams in the conquest map.

    RE: 11th inning progress

    I’m at 580. This was the easiest showdown for me. I went into the final showdown down 15-13 and won it on my first attempt. And I get frustrated a lot with showdowns. It often takes me a dozen or more tries to finish them, and only one other time had I finished in the first few tries.

    RE: Best Finest Cards

    I've been using Freddie Freeman at third base and he's actually made some really good plays over there, including a diving stop and throwing to first while sitting down. Mookie also rakes for me. I'm off to a really slow start with Soto, but sticking with him for now. deGrom is obviously amazing, and I've been using Williams, Anderson and Hendriks in my bullpen and all have been great.

    RE: Conquest map heaven

    @Hikes83 said in Conquest map heaven:

    What hidden rewards were in them, if any?

    Some regular packs, two or three Ballin' packs (can't remember the exact numbers) and one prospect pack. I've done two of the maps and it was the same except it was a different series of prospect pack each time.

    RE: Joe Morgan can’t hit

    I hit a bunch of HRs with him in the moments against righties, but the 3 hits including 1 XBH against a lefty starter took me forever. After trying for nearly an hour, I somehow ended up with 3 XBH in one game to finally finish it.

    All but the Pham one were easy last time. So far, these don't seem difficult yet. Correa was easy despite so many flyouts. I've started using zone on most hitting moments, especially on veteran.

    So zone instead of directional is the way to go in the postseason moments? I haven't done the WC or DS moments yet and actually I'm just starting on Sept POTM on Thursday.

    I do directional and power swing for moments that require HRs or XBH for non-power hitters (Brandon Phillips being the best example). With these postseason cards with 118 or 125 power, I don't think it matters. Square up a pitch over the plate and it's going a long way.

    Impossible to square up 10000 balls out of the strike zone

    Yeah, that drove me crazy with the Gleyber moment. Just need to be patient. I'll get frustrated and start swinging at anything close and get in bad counts. But if you get into enough 2-0 and 3-1 counts, eventually they groove one.

    RE: TDA moment

    4 extra-base hits in 3 games. I kept restarting until I had 2 extra-base hits in the first game. He has 125 contact and 125 power, so he's a beast and you can dashboard if necessary.
