Would love to see these 1976 throwbacks! Didn't know how to embed a pic.

With Alonso, DeGrom, Baez and Lindor all having 99's already, who gets the Met's Finest? Maybe Nimmo?

Conforto?

Aaron Loup - or I am hoping!!!!

I've also seen so many gold's being sold for under the sell now price. Why? Just sell the card and be done. Why put it up for 1050 when you lose 10% and get less than the sell now price of the card. Someone needs a match class I guess.

EA hasn't released a quality sports game in years - I'll stick with The Show; love the game!

58 and still playing, although 99.5% is strictly offline

If they do Jeter, with the amount of people asking, my guess is he will be a cover athlete and not simply a card in the game; just my opinion though.

So, for those of us who can't play daily, and try and "catch up" on another day, does this mean once we hit a certain XP one day we are locked or does the daily limit carry over? Doesn't seem quite right for those who don't abuse a system.

@lazy_toast_psn said in Golden Ticket?:

99 Hideki Nomo por favor

Would that be Hideki Irabu or Hideo Nomo? Did they have a child?

Just thinking what could be added to the game to make it fun and I started thinking about the Golden Ticket idea that Madden used. Maybe have 5 to 10 golden tickets. Winnrers choose a player (that SDS has the rights to) and creates their stats to a 99. (GT winners obviously get 1/X of that player) Then, those players are released in packs with a max of each card until they are gone.

If they did this, who would you choose to 99? Choose a player. For me, I'd GT Brandon Nimmo!

Thought this might make for a fun conversation.

Level 1 and Level 2 on Juan Lagares diamond

@hikes83_psn said in things youd want to see no wrong answers:

I’d be ok with the lineups vs RH and LH as long as they’re the same players from your 26 man roster.

Example would be if you have Sizemore vs a RHP, you can’t just take him out of your roster vs lefties. Worst case scenario he’s on your bench.

Nobody should ever have 9 lefties or 9 righties in their lineup. That’s far from reasonable

Completely agree and exactly what I meant. You have your starters and 5 bench players. If one or two of those guys you want as bench players/pinch hitters you should have that option. Definately not a larger roster size.

*Night games in created stadiums

*A better version of "directional hitting" using "simulation" that could be played against the CPU or play vs friends. With directional, the PCI is always in
the center of the zone. Would love to see it be purely statistical to get a game that truly represents an MLB game.

• A few more classic stadiums if they could get the rights to them.

*The ability to use current stadiums in the game as a base start to create a stadium so they could be edited.

*For SDS to find a way to make live series cards have more meaning. Unless you want Chipper or one of the collection items, there really is no need as so many good cards are released.

*Finally, the ability to have lineups vs LH and RH pitchers to make platoon players have greater value.

I watched the video and by walking batters you can earn 30,000 xp in 45 min. To get to 690K that's still 23 hours of grinding to get it done. I personally play games on rookie to get about 7K per 45 minutes and boost the parallel's of my players in the process when there is nothing left to play; I'm an offline player. To each their own. Can't imagine walking batters for 23 hours to get a player LOL

His swing simply makes his numbers higher; kind of like Sandoval. I absolutely love him.

Opened 150 packs - Corey Seager, Max Scherzer and Jacob deGrom, Half way now to getting Trout, the final card I need!

Prime Johan Santana

My son has actually pulled him 3 times!!! Makes me sick LOL

@jaytal6_psn said in eroding margins in the Market:

When it comes to the market, people are going to do what they're going to do. Only thing you can do is try to find a way to work around it. There's plenty of stubs to be had by anyone who plays the market.

I agree and im not trying to regulate how people play the market. I Just dont know why people would do that or maybe I was missing some type of tactic

It's no tactic; people are simply impatient. It's the same reason MLB is destroying the game of baseball; because of impatience. Everyone has to get immediate satisfaction now. I used to love buying tickets for doubleheaders booked BEFORE the season started; it was a DAY at the ballpark. People can't even watch a game at a stadium now without looking at their phone. They don't understand the intricacies of the batter/pitcher matchup. You can still get value on cards, just put it out there and be patient. It may take a few hours, may take a few days, but it WILL sell.

You get my vote - been saying this all along! Just like the uniform cards from Madden,

I remember years back, on the Commordore 64, playing my dad in Micro League Baseball. I squeezed in the winning run with Darryl Strawberry and he swore he'd never play me again; and didn't LOL
