Why change it

This is how it was:

two fingers = sinker, fastball, changeup
No fingers = Slider

SDS patched on July 10th and you can no longer see his grip anymore

Too late 😏.. next season

@SaveFarris said in why don't they do the giants (and other teams) mascot:

Because they're ALL dumb, except for the Phanatic and the San Diego Chicken.

As a Tigers fan, I agree. Paws is pretty stupid lol

Franco Park looks a lot like Sahlen Field to me

I don't know the stats on my old TV, but I bought a monitor in August and my OPS since then is about 200-300 points better each season than it was before. I immediately noticed a huge difference in that when I pressed "swing" my batter actually swang right away. Pitches I could never in my life catch up to on my old tv I'm early on nowadays on my monitor. It made a huge difference for me.

Last night I found myself with 39 wins and only a few 1M buy orders left for Arrieta. Playing my 40 win game it was super sweaty. Found myself down 2-0 in the 3rd, had a clutch 3 run bomb in the 5th along with another run scoring to make it 4-2, then the guy bunts (fine whatever I had auto shift on) and hits a 2 run bomb with Tatis. I REALLY don't wanna go to extras so I can get Arrieta as quick as possible. In the top of the 6th, game tied I hit a HR with mookie (vs a lefty btw) that BARELY sneaks out. Bottom of the 6th guy gets a leadoff triple cause Griffey makes a ****ing error but somehow I get out of it and win. Get my Arrieta and head to the market... and see there are no more 1M orders. I put him up for 900k and check the show nation to see when the last 1M order went through and it was MINUTES ago😢. I end up getting in a bidding war with someone and am finally able to sell him for 550k. I'll still buy him back later and I'll still make stubs of off it, but man, that was heartbreaking.

Is the title of this post supposed to be witty?

It's kind of a meme

Well it's kinda stupid...poor attempt at being clever.

I thought it was clever. I had to do a double-take, as I thought that @Guavacado12 was saying that he played the game while in Spain. 😆

Ehhh doesn't do it for me.

@boomy_91 said in A few questions about BR:

Honestly, the way the game plays on All Star this year, getting to 12-0 is more about luck than skill. A ranked season goon can lose to a lesser-skilled opponent just because of how easy it is to hit on All Star.

I understand what you're trying to say, but I don't fully agree with this. Yes, you need to be lucky at some occasion for sure and luck plays a bigger part per game than it does in RS. However you can not get lucky 12 times in a row, that's statistically extremely unlikely. Skill definitely still plays a major part, especially after 9-0 when you mostly match up with players who are also in deep runs and when pressure starts to factor in. Of course you still need to be "lucky" to get rewarded on your good input but like I said, you cant get lucky 12 games in a row.

Cabrera will be in Cooperstown in the Old English D.

Not even debatable. He will also have a statue outside Comerica Park someday.

Cobb Greenberg Heilmann Cabrera Kaline Gehringer

7-10 could be very debatable for all time Tigers hitters. But these are my top 6 all time, and Cabrera is the 4th best hitter that’s ever wore the Tigers uniform in my opinion.

That’s a big feat considering we’ve been around since 1901.

Nope Still a Marlin
Won his only title in Miami

Just because you stole him for a bucket of baseballs and a player to be born later does not mean he is yours.

He’s ours.

Well we had him when he was skinny...so there !!

Lol that’s awesome!

If your TV is that old, chances are it’ll make a big enough difference that you’ll notice

Ok that's good to hear

@Hubijerk said in Why am I playing so many goons in the event!!:

I'm playing the event to prestige some of my guys, that's the only real reason I could see someone playing this. What I'm finding though are some of the sweatiest games imaginable. guys swapping pitchers every 3 hitters, starting relievers, up 8 runs and they're still throwing balls and trying to dot corners... Don't get me wrong, I'm playing to win games, BUT, im not treating this like RS or when I was grinding to get Goose.

The top 4 of my lineup are prestigable. Is basically hit and quit for me

Anyone else think its stupid its the finest event and u can't even field all finest team? I have a bench full of commons, 1 common in my pen and still at a 98 overall. How to get to 95 lol

Update for those waiting on willie.

Mine just went through at 317 pm mst.

I believe I was 152 on the waiting list.

Good luck to those still chasing him

@Guavacado12 said in Currently in my biggest slump of the year:

Last season I got to 837 as my peak and have a huge aspiration to make WS for the first time ever. To start the season I won my first few games but since then, have lost like 6 out of my last 7 games and am currently at 533. I just feel lost at the plate. I'm switching camera angels, pci, players in my lineup, everything. And I'm not losing cause my opponents are better than me. I'm scoring like 2 runs a game on Allstar. What do I do😭

Try strike zone high with your pci being wedge and altitude in the middle. If you’re having trouble catching up on fastballs try going to practice with the fastball slider all the way up on legend difficult against Cole/Chapman. That be my two cents, or just grind the event out a bit and get used to playing like that on hall of fame for a bit.

Why strike zone HIGH sir ?

Just because if you were to switch back to strike zone it’s much easier to see the ball. Or alternate between the two, strike zone high against people who throw more offspeed and strike zone for fastball or sinker dominant people.

I’m taking your advice seriously at the moment.

I mostly see kluber over 65% for sure sometimes i forget therers other sp in the game

Now that we finally got Mays, what other legends are we missing? I didn't play last year so I can't think off the top of my head who was in the game last year that we haven't gotten this year. Is mays the final legend?

@WDK19 has got you covered. 🙂
