Also. They put out a lightning Didi Gregorious along with a Tim Anderson in that set, and do the exact same thing here with a Brandon Crawford and a lightning Correa. What’s with all the shortstops? I only have so many infield positions

I'm just glad that I'm not the only one experiencing stuff like this because I swear anytime they "patch" something it seems like the thing they fixed becomes an issue for me in my game example all of a sudden Klubers sinker to me looks faster than a chapman fastball.

@Harryhukari33 said in Graterol will be the best TA2 card:

As much as I thought Gorman was going to be the best after seeing his attributes, that graterol card looks like a GLITCH for HOF/Legend difficulty. Goodness gracious.

Yea, this card is going to be very popular. I will need to do like 5 showdowns to get it though.

@MaxHarvest said in Oh my God Hanley Ramirez:

His bat is great but he’s a ball boot master so really only a bench bat option for me (I love D) and at even 30k, I have options almost as good like fof turner

Woahhhhhhh pause there sir, what did you say?????

Ive opened a lot best card pulled was ronald acuna jr.

If this were 19 I would %100 agree that br needs to be on HOF, but not this year. Playing the event I have gotten so bored of it being just wait for the first person to hit a homerun and win 1-0.

I’m not having that issue on the event at all. I’ve played 100 event games, and I keep playing them to grab rewards and because the gameplay is so much more enjoyable. You can keep people off balance pitching wise, and good input is rewarded so much more from a hitting standpoint,

Because you're in the top 5 to 10% of players in the game. For the rest of us this event is basically sell out on high fastballs and pray we guessed right and can get around on it in time.

But what percentage of the time to people throw fastballs up? I don’t always swing at fastball up if I’m confident he’s going to throw a different pitch. That’s how you get into trouble. Nash ( @frizbgirl22 ) who’s a better player than me talked about how he has a hard time reacting to fastballs inside. How is he still elite? Because he adjusted his approach to crush every other pitch. You may get 10-20% of pitches that are fastball up, so what about the other 80-90%? If you can hit those, then having a hole like that is easy to overcome. It’s when you get outside your approach is when you run into trouble.

Hopefully this perspective helps in finding the best approach for you to be

I’m a big advocate of not swinging at pitches you struggle with. Unless there are two strikes, there’s no reason

Yep, no reason to swing at a pitch you struggle with. If someone can dot three pitches in a row you struggle with then kudos to them. From what I’ve seen that just doesn’t happen.

All my opponents know by the 2nd inning that I struggle with an inside FB but they aren’t going to hit the black every time. When they miss their spot is when you can do some damage.

A big part of hitting is knowing your strengths and weaknesses. Stick to your strengths and you’ll see results

People worry too much about pci size or other things that are visual, but it's always the timing windows that they screw around with that kill this game. They do it every year.

This makes me happy I’m doing the Rays MTO.
