I do this because if someone has less stubs than me, they can’t outbid me and it saves me the trouble of having to always make sure I’m the lowest bid. If the card cost 10,500 and some dude has 10,000 but I have 11,000 I can make sure he can’t outbid me by doing something like 10,750 instead of 10,001
You don't know if the person doesn't have extra stubs.
You conveniently ignored my answer to your question.
I saw it. I just disagree with it. There have been plenty of examples of people cutting a sell price by, say, 1,000 stubs and then they themselves get underbid by a single stub.
I'm not new around here. I know how things work. I disagree with you. People that do it aren't necessarily selling their card any faster and they are still getting outbid sometimes.
You can disagree but this is what literally happens. No matter how much you disagree with it. If you have a 50K card and you list it for 48K and then I come along and list it for 42,5K you'll most likely refresh a few times because you know that card will be gone soon and then you can relist your card for what you had in mind. Hence the evidence that undercutting by a significant amount does make you sell your card quicker, some people are actually lurking on this. They pick up those major undercuts and relist them to make a 1K or so profit. That's a solid flip. So yeah disagree all you like, you're wrong about it though.
Again, this is something that makes perfect sense for player cards, in my opinion.
You rarely find a glut of any Diamond player that will lead to downward supply pressure.
In that case, what you’re describing is usually what plays out.
In my experience, flipping items happens wherever the margins are worth it. Whether those are player cards, equipment or stadiums. I agree that it's not worth undercutting 10K on an equipment item, but the whole idea is to undercut juuuuuust enough to scare off everyone else who wants to sell the same item while still making a reasonable profit. So for a 40K equipment item, that could be like 5 or 6K, which again will most likely halt everyone with their listings until the item is sold.
10000% agree.

I've been hitting BOMBS that aren't carrying, and my runners are constantly getting picked off 1st.
What the hell did they do?
Bro i haven’t posted anything but have been reading a lot of ppl on different threads about this. I played some BR, Event and Conquest yesterday. My son was watching and in all three game modes there was a hit I smoked, one P/P that he got up and was like “yea dad that’s gone”.
But was a fly out. Like not even warning track fly out. I shut it off after that and haven’t touched it since. I want no part of this right now
Yeah, it’s not normal swing has been nerfed hard and runners hesitate A LOT more.
All I use is normal swing. Even in 2 strike counts
If I NEED to get a runner over/in, with 2 strikes, I might go to contact. That really depends upon how much I’m struggling to hit.
I honestly think they should get rid of contact and power swing, because batters always swing hard lol.

@thinkbluedgr said in Is there a way to block a player from having to play them again:
Every single player I've blocked on my ps4 I've never been matched up with again. People say it don't work but it has for me.
This can't be true, because then you could just block every good player and farm wins.

@casedogg310 said in Chris Sale:
He’s obviously not worth that amount, unless you’re just sitting on stubs without anything else to really buy. Can’t take the stubs to 2020 so might as well sell them.
But he is pretty great. Unless you get an opponent who can pick up the slider well. If they can just sit fastball you might get knocked around a little bit
Well, my buy order went through, so too late now lol.

@MrGamebred said in Proposed Improvements for MLB 2020:
I like some of those suggestions. The amount of time I've spent lining out in moments stole a little piece of my soul that I'll never get back.
That's a big thing for me: I keep yelling at fielders, "Don't catch it! No one gets hurt! You're not gonna get benched!"
If I was playing a human, I understand them wanting those diving catches made, etc., but Moments are only vs. the CPU.

Happy New Year, Everyone!
As an MLB The Show n00b, 19 was my first go-round with the series. After playing this version a great deal (very little Franchise Mode, though), I noticed some things that could use improvement. Hopefully, you have comments and the devs have answers:
GENERAL
1-Let us custom build a home stadium, for DD and franchise use, a la MVP Baseball.
2-Don’t change pitch speeds at different difficulty levels: change exit velocity instead; the variations on pitch speeds for moments, conquest, events, RS, etc. can be jarring.
3-Fix advance all runners mechanic: too many baserunners get stuck on the same base.
4-Add multiple paths to endgame rewards: this helps casual, younger, and older gamers access the same rewards through longer grinding.
5-Move the Manager button to the first column: no reason for Replay to be the first paused selection.
6-Add more commentary on players to cut down on play-by-play repetitiveness.
7-Allow us to assign another pitcher to warm up when we send a receiver in from the BP.Moments
1-Don’t make us play the side that doesn’t have an objective: need HRs or XBH in a 9-inning game? Don’t make us pitch.
2-Don’t make us rack up total bases with slow players.
3-Don’t make us hit HRs with contact hitters.
4-Make PC defenders react like humans; defenders don’t immediately start running to the spot.
5-On good/good or good/squared [censored], make them hits: moments don’t affect other players, and this would deprive them of nothing.
6-Always give us control of baserunning.
7-Always give us control of defense.
8-Reset ABs where a BB is meaningless.
9-Let us restart a game that’s in progress, during a multi-game challenge.
10-Grant experience for each plate appearance, not each inning.
11-Remove locked player hitting/defense moments: no reason to have offensive goals spoiled by not getting a ball hit to you.
12-Remove locker player pitching/offense moments: no reason to have pitching goals ruined by bad luck ABs.
13-Always have full game offensive moments on the road: one extra AB can be critical.
14-Make the CPU pitcher start with expected fatigue for late-inning moments with starters who have [itched dee[p into a game.
15-Allow for restarting at any time: a GB right to short will never count as XBH.RTTS
1-Create more opportunities to gain Baserunning Aggressiveness points.
2-Reduce caught stealing penalties.
3-Remove odd mini-games, in favor of actual hitting and pitching drills.
4-Let us use our RTTS players in DD modes.Diamond Dynasty
1-Improve IF catching and swiping on CS attempts.
2-Decrease passed ball/WP instances.
3-Remove or drastically decrease errors.
4-Let us prioritize stats in team optimization: power, contact, speed, defense, etc.
5-Change the even point system and always reward players for their efforts: extra-inning games and losses can take a lot of time to garner 0 points.
6-If the other player runs down their pause timer, let their opponent have unlimited time to force their forfeit.
7-Remove pitcher randomizer; force us to manage the full rotation and pen.Conquest
1-Let us auto-skip to the end of the sim games.
2-Let us auto-skip through all games, when skipping to the next turn.Thanks for reading!

...don't be mad when they slam that square button to force the auto-forfeit...

@skepple15 said in Proposed Improvements for MLB 2020:
Custom stadiums online would be an absolute disaster, no thanks
Hall of fame pitch speeds everything above 400 In DD, 900+ goes to legend
As much fun as it would be to have a moat in my OF, I was referring more to what they did in MVP Baseball lol.
That game gave you several (if I recall correctly) templates that you could upgrade with increasing team revenue (concessions, entertainment features, additional seating tiers, etc.).

Why don't you take a picture of your swing analysis after the game and post that instead of us just having to take your word for it
Where do I find this?
Pause menu -> Stats -> Batter analysis -> team (yours) -> Batter (all) -> Situation - label hit chance -> Result Out
Take Screen shot post here
Is this something I can see for my opponent, or is it only for me, in a current or completed game?
You can see it for both, during the game or after
Thanks, man.

I once watched a fly ball redirect downwards into the second baseman's glove, to rob me of a hit in a Moment.

@eatyum said in For RTTS...:
Well, riding the bus would be unrealistic because minor league players don't drive the buses, they sit in them. We can't have that.
So you have to sit at your computer for 1-5 hours reading a book/listening to music while your player travels to their destination.Whatever, Mr. No Fun...maybe, in 20, the "Field Commander" perk would let you commandeer the vehicle.
WOULD THAT MAKE YOU HAPPY!?

@halfbutt said in If you're gonna pause for 30, 60, and 90 seconds to annoy your opponent...:
My favourite is when your opponent pauses with a full count to try to get your timing off.
It’s satisfying to take ball four or drive one after that.
Indeed lol.

You can always use your Roided up Yankees players from the 90's and 2000's to hold you over. Even though a lot of them arent in the game.
This always cracks me up whenever I see this. Lets take a look at the main players of the dynasty
Derek Jeter- no roids
Bernie Williams- no roids
Jorge Posada- no roids
Chuck Knoblauch- no roids
Paul Oneill- no roids
Tino Martinez- no roids
Scott Brosius- no roids
David Cone- no roids
Andy Pettitte- no roids (at the time)
Mariano Rivera- no roids
David Wells- no roids
Orlando Hernandez- no roidsBesides Clemens (who was an astro as well), who was juicing hard core?
Clemens, Cabrera GIANTS, Cervelli, Montero MARINERS, Sheffield, Knoblauch (named in Mitchel report just like the others), Giambi, Pettitte, Canseco A's/RANGERS, Justice, A Roid RANGERS, to name a few. That is why. FYI, Pettitte "admitting" to using PED was in 2002 for an elbow, was a Yankee.
http://www.giantpeople.com/980.htmlOf that list, only Pettitte and A-Rod were Yankees who admitted to using it, and A-Rod said he started in Texas. People so conveniently forget that it was the "Steroid Era," the A's under LaRussa were infamous for being a steroid factory, the Rangers had Pudge, Canseco, Caminiti, Kevin Brown, Ruben Sierra, Juan Gonzalez, Rafael Palmiero on steroids, and Lou Merloni outed the Sox for coaching players how to take roads.
When you look into the Sox' bias in the Mitchell Report, it makes perfect sense that all of those things got curiously overlooked, in favor of naming sometime Yankees...
