Just a heads up the higher your fielding is the slower the circle will pulse making it easier.

If you go into settings, put pitching on beginner and move all the pitching sliders to the right your godhood should happen. You’ll still only throw at whatever limit your growth allows but they won’t be able to touch the baseball. You won’t reach 107 mph until you get your 4seam to 99 but with the 50-60 tokens you get per pitching appearance it’ll help you get there pretty fast.

I played my 1st all-star game since the update and I just wanted to thank SDS for putting players in team uniforms in the all-star game. I wish MLB still did that. It felt amazing to be repping in actual team uniforms and seeing all the different team uniforms on the field while playing! I don’t know if it’ll last but thank you for that bit of nostalgia from when I was little and first fell in love with the all-star festivities!

@xsdert34_PSN Thanks, I guess we all kinda favor the mode we enjoy the most and hope that the developers feel the same way. We tend to forget at times that it’s fun for us but business for them (not a knock on SDS). You put the money and time where the profitability is highest. I don’t have to like it but I do have to understand it. I can’t fathom spending that kind of money, but I can see why that’s where the focus is because of it. Thanks for helping me to think a little differently.

The torpedo bats are available, they’re just hard as hell to get. I actually pulled one, tried it and sold it for 30,000 stubs.

It is crazy though that you can’t do anything with excess Nike equipment. I actually have 12 pair of both Jordan and Nike shin guards. Multiple Nike and Jordan cleats (none diamond of course) and misc other Nike products that I can’t get any value for.

@yankblan_PSN The $99 I spent at release should, but obviously doesn’t.

@Dolenz_PSN LOL, true!

@Jpytel23_PSN The equipment is usually Evoshield protectors, Franklin batting gloves with misc bats and a pair of all star socks. I did get the Nike cleats, batting gloves and protectors either in 23 or 24 I believe, but I can’t remember which one

I’m just curious as to why Diamond Dynasty gets all the love and RTTS gets leftovers? I’ve been diehard RTTS for years and I truly love playing but it’s irritating that all this content pops up on this app and the vast majority is never RTTS. They get all the XP bonuses, most things (equipment ex. Sliding mitts) get put in DD first and eventually funnel down to RTTS. I’m not hating on DD players but I do take issue with SDS treating RTTS like a stepchild.

@Precisionist99_XBL I agree but unfortunately you don’t get anything for winning any of the seasonal individual awards, not even MVP. Someone suggested a possible playable Rawlings mitt with gold accents for winning the gold glove, but that probably won’t happen either. You would never know you won anything unless you check the main awards tab, your personal awards tab, or as you found out an announcer saying it.

It happened to me in MLB 24 but not in 25 yet. Some other players have said if you disable auto save and save manually it will stop it. I haven’t done that so I can’t speak on if it works or not. You can try, but that’s all I’ve heard will help to avoid it happening.

Just wondering why they decided to not award tokens for winning the World Series? I got tokens for state championship, I got tokens for the college World Series, but nothing for he actual World Series.

Thanks, I’ll check the catcher stats from here on out

Congrats, hopefully you’ll get the next call quicker. For some reason for me moving AA to AAA was always longer than AAA to MLB.

Just and observation but why is it that almost every player (between 65-75 speed and 50-60 steals) that steals a base against my team is Rickey Henderson? I play SS and I did a small sample size study and over 85% of attempts against my catchers are successful.

On the other side though I have over 90 speed and 81 steal and my % is 83, which is great, but it’s not over 85. Maybe it’s just me but I was wondering if anyone else is having the same experience?

Every time I’ve gotten called up it’s been at the beginning of a month.

Yes, I got the call at the end of my first year (after I accepted my offer from my team) and I requested a trade. The shocking part was for the first time since I started playing the series it happened. My agent even verified before the trade if I’d be willing to play for the team.

Not available in 24, only 25

Don’t under any circumstances start simming, you’ll never get called up. I don’t know the Angels roster and it’s not currently available. First thing you need to do is go into the full roster of the Angels (MLB & Minors) and see where you rank among all the 3rd baseman in the Angels system. I think Yoan Moncada is the MLB starter, I don’t know who is AAA starter.

If your OVR is less than at least 2 3rd baseman then you won’t get called up until your OVR is higher than theirs. If you’re OVR is higher then you need to start putting every token you have into contact & power. It seems strange but contact impacts your power significantly. Better contact, the better your bat to ball skill will be which will help with hitting those home runs . This will in turn also increase your OVR fast.

Now the part that people may judge you for, but who cares. Lower to amateur or beginner. Amateur to me was the best way for me to learn and earn when I first started in the minors. Amateur will help you getting an eye for pitches while not just seeing fastballs down the middle like in beginner. Put a few tokens in arm and fielding but focus on hitting. Don’t waste any on speed right now. You want to be a thumper not a runner.
