Thanks for the advice. I have tendency to chase pitches, and this is helpful to work on.

It's inevitable that when ever I'm pitching a no-hitter against the CPU, they end up getting a base hit to break it up.

That's super cute and everything but the fact is, and with the exception of mistakes by the umpire, every pitch thrown that is out of the strike zone is a ball. Assuming you should just be able to get on base on every pitch thrown is both super unrealistic and untrue to the nature of baseball itself. Try again dummy.

The OP is a troll who's obviously salty about losing some game, he's not being serious.

Sarcasm is lost on some people. It just goes over there head and the they can't catch it

Thanks to the improvement of contact swings I can hit the ones that go over my head into the bleachers. Competitive!

I'm sure you can.

@cbpm72_psn said in There needs to be a separate forum category for pack pulls.:

There clearly needs to be a separate forum for your separate forum posts, clogging up the forum lately.

Couldn't agree more. Has to be a least one a day.

Listen, it's cool you pulled Trout or any of the big time cards in a pack; however, what is the point of coming on the forums just to get people to buy packs, or create a thread about "OMG! I pulled this card". I pulled Acuna the other night from a free pack and I thought about posting it, but then thought what would be the point. Just to get some congrats on a forum post. It's simple good for you for pulling a card you needed and congrats, but the world doesn't need to hear about it. Additionally, you don't need to run to the forum to tell people to buy packs because "there hot". They may be hot for you, but to the kid that is easily influenced might spend their last stubs on a pack only to pull commons or bronzes and now they have to grind even more. Just my opinion though.

@batbreath56_psn said in Packs are hot!:

I receievd Devin Williams and Mike Trout this morning about 5am from the same pack.

Get them while their hot!

Sorry, not buying packs because someone says they are "hot". I read this post all the time, and every time I purchase packs and get squat or a diamond equipment. This will be a hard pass.

While playing conquest, I just throw them in; however, during ranked/events/BR I usually warm them up. I'm not sure if it makes a difference other then allowing your opponent to know who you have warming up to put in.

@xxdeathreyxx_psn said in Bo Jackson?:

We really need that 40 contact, 85 power. Highlight player but not a great player. He’s fine where he is…..in Madden.

Dude had at least four seasons w/ over 20 homeruns and 50 RBI only playing half the season. His stats would be way higher if he had played an entire season. Additionally, even after his hip injury he had two seasons w/ 10+ homeruns and 40 RBI. I would love to see this card in the game along w/ Roy and Dion.

Don't worry. If I pull one I list it, as I'd rather have the stubs after completing the Reds earlier before the roster updates.

@jeezy-e_psn said in Glitch card:

Theres only one real glitch card in this game, Monthly awards Mondesi, he will probably be released in one of the programs as a “Show Classics” card, and when he does the nightmares will come back. That card has given me a mild form of PTSD.

I don't know about that, but that Baddoo card annoyed the [censored] out of yesterday. Even lost a game because dude hit a routine pop up for a triple.

Just wondering if the Akil Baddoo (silver 79 moments card) is a glitch. The reason I ask is because I've played against him twice in events yesterday, and both times a routine what should have been a routine pop up became a difficult red circle catch for a triple and an inside the park homerun.

Thanks for all the opinions. I'm going to keep him right now, and see how I do w/ him in ranked and events. Appreciate all the feedback, and it's nice to see a generally good debate w/o too much negativity on the forum.

@the_dragon1912 said in Keep or sell:

He's actually one of the better relievers in the game right now IMO

Thanks for the opinion. Not sure I want another reliever right now. Have Gallegos paralleled at two, and have Hoffman, Hendricks, and Street in my pen.

Just pulled Wainwright in ballin pack. Kind of need the stubs, but wondering if I should sell him.

So, I just logged on to the game to to the boss showdown for TA, and got a "unexpected sever" error and then the whole showdown restarted. Didn't even click on it to play either. I know in the past I've been booted during the game, but this has never happened before. I'll submit a ticket, but I sure I'll get some BS from SDS about I lost the showdown, but I didn't even get the chance to play it.

A top tier catcher or 3B would be nice; however, there seems to be a lot of secondary position players for 3B.

They've done Ichro before. I'd like to see some cards that have never been in The Show before. I'd still like to see a Bo Jackson or Deion Sanders card. Possibly a Roy Holiday for a pitcher.

I primarily play offline, as I am an average player, so there is enough content to play; however, as one of the other posters stated, mix it up now an than. Play some of the events, and try to complete the missions in order to get XP. Just my thoughts.
