Nothing is getting deleted or moved by Mods anymore and F it, I don't care if they decide this is the one. Im done working for the holidays now and in Christmas mode. This place isn't half bad. You're all mostly not bad. Cheers, and enjoy yourselves.
And if you don't celebrate Christmas, I apologize. I hope you enjoy your holiday as well.
Tell someone you love them. Happy everything. Let's hope we enjoy the next installment of this game as we seem to enjoy this one.

@BattleBones86 said in That pitcher from LA:
yeah the new 93 rated pitching prospect. has filthy stats, but it doesnt translate for me.
i appreciate you giving me that intel - Gatorade looks great on paper, just like the TA Matt Olsen - who is a complete joke at the plate no pop nothing i hit better with bronzes and silvers than his supposed 89 card
I'm sorry what? Olson is incredible. Quite possibly the best TA card in the game.
@Thierry007007 said in [censored] fastball spammers !!!:
I just played a guy online spamming 102 mph fastballs with Nate Pearson during the whole game !!!🤬 I was like HOLY [censored] [censored] !!!🤬 I just cannot catch a breath with this game.🤬 Bunt cheese, bunt dancing, perfect perfect dying in the middle of the field, check swing demons, early homeruns, very late hits, sinkers reaching the middle of the strike zone, and now 102 mph fastball spammers !!!🤬 This game never fail to mentally defeat me !!!🤬
Wait, so you knew a fastball was coming and couldn't hit it? If you can't hit what you know is coming, that's 100% on you man. No different than if you can't lay off change ups in the dirt. If you're going to miss, I'm going to throw it until you prove to me you can hit it.
I don't blame your opponent or SDS for one second. This is entirely you.
In my opinion pickoffs are broken in this game. Yes, you can pick someone off, but I feel you're more likely to either throw it away, or deplete your energy before you succeed.
If someone takes an extra step I simply step off. Every time. If they continue to take the step, I will wait 5 seconds then select my pitch, let my pitcher come to a complete set and wait 5 seconds again before stepping off. It usually only takes a couple times before my opponent gets the hint.
On occasion, I've had them pause and msg me to "throw the ****ing ball" which usually prompts a back and forth of me telling them as soon as they stop taking the step I'll pitch.
Am I the only one who flat out refuses to let these entitled people have the extra step advantage? I'm undefeated in these little battles (sometimes ashamedly)
@the_dragon1912 said in TA4 reveal thread:
As I did with TA2 and TA3, I feel like I’m obligated to make this post again for stage 4. As I did the other times I will have proof of the card as they are revealed and will add the attributes as they are revealed as well
Not all hero's wear capes.

I get the A's (Green)
I get the Dbacks, Cards, and Red Sox (Red)
I get the Astros (Star at the top of the tree)What in the world are the Brewers doing on this map?!?
I dunno about you, but I definitely need a few brews to deal with my inlaws on Christmas. Seems like they belong on this map to me!
Yeah.... still not witty.
I'm just going to go ahead and mute you.
Here's a guy who just lost a game, and proceeded to have an entire conversation on the internet with himself.......
@The_DoctorsWife said in Miguel Cabrera is Disappointing:
As a Tigers fan I am outraged. I finally managed to get him through the player program, but he is a complete letdown so far. It's been several at-bats and he is nowhere near getting a hit.
This is bull [censored]. What am I doing wrong, or did they really screw things up with this card?
Honestly, this card would have been good a few months ago. They dropped it too late to have the stats that he does.
In my opinion they actually should have made him better. There was a stretch where he was arguably the best hitter of an entire generation, yet his card is just kind of adequate. Huge let down if you ask me.
@KILLERPRESENCE4 said in I don't like to think theres scripting, but sometimes this game makes it hard to think otherwise.:
I guess my 68-19 RS record is rng/scripted right? While I understand your frustration it just seems like the same tired rant that you here in these forums. Sorry bud it’s not scripted it’s called confidence. If you’re able to get your pitcher to a high level of confidence those so called scripted moments will be mitigated.
I think you're in the wrong spot. I'm pretty sure r/humblebrag is where you meant to post this.....
Did this guy just have an entire conversation all by himself?
@MrGamebred said in How many gold would it take to get FOF Gallo:
Do bronzes. Way cheaper.
Not way cheaper. I actually calculated it and watched over a few days. It saves you a few thousand. Silvers in the 77-79 range are almost the same cost, but it saves you literally hundreds of buy orders. That's worth it to me.
In case anyone was wondering, if you're starting at 0 affinity points and doing strictly 50,000 exchanges it takes.....
380 70 overall silvers
310 71
250 72
190 73
160 74
130 75
100 76
80 77
65 78
50 79 (this is what I did for Gallo and Gleyber)
40 80
30 81
25 82
20 83
15 84
You can save a bit in there by using lower overalls to get as close to 50k as possible, but if you're just throwing out bulk buy orders for sake of ease that's what you're looking at
Trout it the top outfield option at the moment.
I'm not even mad. (Not my first and likely not my last)
He struck out 18 times in 8 2/3. That's just the type of people you run into sometimes I guess. Quality people.
️ No trophy to be earned, nothing taken away. Still better than someone dashboarding on prestige stats lol.
@mitchhammond24 said in The 2 out rally:
I choke with 2 outs : (
Same. Also, I choke with 0 outs and 1 out.
This is a horrendous idea!!!!! All someone needs to do is send a friendly quit between innings now and if I'm pressing x to skip cut scenes I'll accept a friendly. I can't count the amount of times where I've had the "Lost Connection to opponent" notification pop up and be cleared so fast that I didn't even read it because I was trying to skip.
This is a horrendous idea. Please don't implement this in your update today as your patch notes indicate.
Relax there Satan.
@DUIaintEZ said in Change my opinion: This game is complete trash (w/ videos):
I largely stopped playing because this game isn't fun. With the end of the program approaching, I've been trying to make a push to collect stars before the end of the program. In the last 24 hours, the following plays happened:
A homerun I hit that didn't even go over the wall: https://youtu.be/VJEe-SXmw74
Granderson camped under the flyball for the final out, lets it fall in letting the tying run cross the plate: https://youtu.be/PgGfy0Gdf4k
Runner takes a big turn at second, should be thrown out. SS and 2B are playing tummy sticks and nobody is covering the base for the throw behind the runner: https://youtu.be/ki4ozU8uKNU
Ozzie Albies at second commits to trampling the ball into the ground. Can't touch it, cause it might have COVID: https://youtu.be/nqbnwRH9uSc
Adelberto Mondesi (POTM) is gunned down on a very deep flyball. Doesn't touch the plate because... COVID? https://youtu.be/yTmOjkjsP3E
This doesn't include the screen shot of TYLER F'ING O'NEIL hitting a bomb over the bullpen on a CONTACT SWING with the ball NOT IN THE PCI. Same with POTM Didi, but at least he has pop. But this isn't even uncommon.
This all happened in 24 hours. I came to the conclusion... is the game is this [censored] up, why am I bothering to grind out program stars? This is beyond bad...
I submit for your approval.....
The dreaded perfect perfect 1-6-5-4-3 quadruple play in showdown.
Nope. They'll cover themselves by saying you only need 5 prestige cards. You can get 5 in the prestige xp reward path.
