Bump til sds responds or fixes this.

First game of new season I won 1-0 in the 10th. Glavine had 20 Ks for me. But I probably wouldve done better had I practiced first, got used to all star again from the event

One of those things. Im batting .200 with chipper but every other player in my lineup is between .350-.400 including Soriano. I personally like his swing though

I sucked with chipper for my first 100 or so at bats but i am now hitting .230 with him which is good enough

Im sure it will balance out, Ive probably only had 30 ABs with him so far

Justice makes the most sense I think Furcal also fits the clues but man a 1997 Awards Silver Slugger Justice would be nasty

Very nice call sir

Good post. One thing I’ll add: Make sure you are taking mental notes of the pitches being thrown to you. You should be taking lots of pitches at the beginning of the game. Often times you'll be able to find distinct patterns in terms of sequencing and/or specific counts.

Yeah I agree with this. I have faced people on HOF even who literally followed the same 3 pitch pattern, FB, CH, SL every AB. And I would add pick what you struggle with and go into custom practice for it i.e. I go into custom practice and try to time 100mph sinkers on legend vs Chapman or Sixto. Helped me to 22-4 this season

Im with you, at 3-0 even if someone I could likely beat, not worth it. At 9 wins or higher im not quitting just because he got a 1st inning run

@washednd_psn said in HOF enjoyable?:

I guess I’m just getting old and sucking but it seems like 90% of players, if not more, can’t hit sinkers inside. The elite few, good for you guys. You have great vision and can see sinkers out of the hand.

To the normie like myself, we are screwed.

I think the elite few just are good at guessing and timing. There isnt time to read and react on HOF or Legend. I have played 2 games on legend, won both because I timed a few pitches right. Really becomes a guessing game

I had many, many Bryants and Missed, but bought dozens more for a tad over 1500 after he missed, so hopefully he stays hot. I hit very nice on Glasnow.

As the guy above mentioned, it will be very hard for him to go diamond. He is hitting very well against lefties and his stats already reflect that. He is just average against righties. He would need to start hitting righties better to get the upgrade to those stats and go diamond. But if he stays hot, it will likely force SDS hands and they will find a way to make him diamond

Has he really been that bad defensively? That is whats holding him back. Plus his OPS against righties is in line with guys like Juan Soto, Mookie Betts, and Trea Turners total OPS.

Im not sure about his defense, havent looked. And he will likely go diamond soon but just saying why it may be more difficult or take longer

Who tf cares??? Why is everyone so concerned about everyone else.... Insecure much?

You seem to since all your posts are whining about someone else LOL

Says the guy who keeps following me everywhere.....

Listen kid. I am not your father.That's right I am not your father! Chet Steadman is not your father! In fact.... your mother probably doesn't even know who your father is! Your father is just, some guy, who left town....

All I can think of his that South Park episode when Cartman was trying to find his dad. Lmao

Lol classic episode... but it's a movie quote. All the old heads here that grew up in the 90s will know what it is right away. If they actually liked baseball growing up, that is.

Such a classic. "We heat the ice cubes....it's the best of both worlds!"

based on my math 14:1

If you are talking about the POTM Burnes yes. I still like him best and my rotation is Lee, Oswalt, Burnes, Cabrera, Glavine. Burnes with the high velo sinker AND cutter makes him easier to keep hitter off balance. Lee has same type pitches but lower velo. But Oswalt/Cabrera are both nasty, especially on HOF

Id much rather spend money than hours flipping cards and grinding conquest. Everyone has a preference, different amount of time to commit to playing, doesnt matter to me either way. Used to I was NMS cause I had all time and no money, now it is the other way around. Thats how it works for a lot of people

Trout/Papi

Yeah as much as I would love to use Hank Aaron, cant hit with him for anything so I don't use him.

I got Oswalt and Lee as I just finished collections so I dont really need any of the position players. The Marlins pitcher is lights out too with the high velo sinker

@pennstatefencer said in FQ in RS:

Unfortunately the friendly quit thing is similar to spam calls / emails. They don't have to succeed with every person. If it works 1/100 times and there is no penalty for trying, they will throw it out there once they start losing. 99% of the people on this forum know not to accept it, but there are plenty of new players this year that don't read carefully and may think it means their opponent concedes.

I think I've received more friendly quit requests in ranked after I've gone up this year than in all of 20 and 19 combined. I haven't played a lot of ranked, but I think I'm 17-1 and I'm pretty sure I received at least 12 friendly quit requests.

Yeah I get them regularly because my record, I accept some if the other team has a similar record or whatever but I won't accept 2 in a row no matter the other team. Dont have that much time to play so cant be spending it all loading in and out of games

Been a little more lucky this year than last, pulled probably 5 or so diamonds but all low diamonds
