@Shaftdagod4hunna something must have just happened to the servers. same exact thing just happened to me. I was in MTO. When I exited the game I was in, I got a ton of network errors. When I tried to enter DD to reconnect, it made me re-initialize my team. Starting over from uniforms, tutorials, everything. My account was wiped totally clean it seems. I closed and reopened the app and it made me agree to the code of conduct again and gave me the rewards you get the first time ever booting up the game.

JRam isn't a bench bat, he has one of, if not the glitchiest swing in the games; and you shouldn't have to spend anywhere close to 250k to get him if you do the moments and use the free cards from the program.

The new Carlos Carrasco Lightning collection reward is the ONLY pitcher in the game with a HR/9 stat over 99.

That's great, too bad it's a completely useless attribute.

Card in general is just really bad all around imo. Fastball at 94, change at 88. H/9 under 100. JRam has a glitchy swing, he's worth it, but the Carrasco collection is only good for the 5k stubs and XP.

WHAT THE [censored]. Why didn't I know. I could've saved so much time

I bought 200 Nick Anderson's before he went diamond. 1 million quicksell, 800k profit.

YOU CANNOT COMPLETE THE PROGRAM WITHOUT THE POSTSEASON COLLECTION

Do not bother doing ever mission and moment. If you are going to complete the program, DO THE COLLECTION FIRST so that you don't have to do more missions/moments than needed.

If you do every single mission, every single, moment, and you do the "exchange dodgers and rays" mission, you will only get to 99/100.

I was 11-1 in BR. The 12 game was Trout. I lost in the 6th inning on an error on a routine groundball hit to 99 Jackie Robinson. I'm sick to my stomach. This game makes me sick to my stomach.

Live series cards are based purely on IRL performance. Whether or not a player has a good flashback card has no impact on how their LS card is upgraded or downgraded. Regardless, I don't see him going diamond anytime this year. I'd invest the 150k elsewhere. If you're willing to put in the time, you could even make a pretty good profit putting in sell orders as long as they are above 1,111 stubs.

I think you can buy cap space with stubs. I know that was a thing in previous games, not sure if it is this year. As for morale, there's no way to just edit their morale to be higher. The factors that go into morale are: team role, contract, coaching, region, team performance, individual performance, and injury. You can view their Expectations and current status for each of those categories under the morale tab when viewing their player card (when you press triangle on the player). Each of those categories are pretty self-explanatory except for team role. You can assign a player's team role when negotiating a contract. Team roles have no effect other than player morale.

If a player expects to be in a star role, but you assign them a platoon role, they won't actually be locked into a platoon role in your lineup, but it will tank their morale.

It will only update players on teams in the playoffs though.

If stage 3 is 97-99 legends, what could stage 4 possibly be? Immortals part 2? lol

Also, they couldn't have come up with a unique card art?

Hi all,

I know most of you are hard core players but I’m not. I only play the game for the franchise feature (thus I usually by the game 1 year behind) and only a few hours a week. I have a couple of questions.

Player Morale. I have players with multi-year contracts that aren’t happy with their contract or player role. Is there a way to adjust their status to make them happy?

Stubs. Are stubs of any value to gameplay in Franchise mode? I’ve been playing since the 2017 version and I don’t see a way to redeem them for anything that will help my ball club. I’ve also noticed that they don’t transfer when I pick up the game with the next version.

Thank you.

Like @icdavis882 said, you can use stubs for Cap Space and bank, but you need to do some DD or buy them to get them.
My question for @icdavis882: If I want to start somebody, but not be a star, can I still put them as a star to help their morale?

I don't think assigning a player the "star" role has any negative affect on their morale in any situation. Their morale is only affected when their assigned role is less than what they expect it to be. So, I guess you could give every single player the "star" role and their team role will never have a negative effect on their morale. Unless I misunderstood something.

I am so confused. What is this in reference to?

Ah, I didn't think about finest cards. That's very possible. Would be an interesting way to do the program.

Ohtani's FOTF card has a RF secondary in DD. I feel like it really shouldn't be that hard to make it so he shows up in the lineup builder when you are looking at players with a RF secondary, yet it hasn't happened.

Yep, it happened in todays roster update. Chapman learned a splitter this year, although he only threw it 3 times this season according to baseball savant.

Seems like it would be tough to implement, but a fantastic idea nonetheless. I've noticed the same thing. It'd be nice to have.

@SIRMANBOY the issue is that you waste options on players you send back down after spring. if there's a player that's out of options that I don't want to be placed on waivers, I should be able to just not call them up for spring in the first place.

deGrom was definitely the best NL pitcher this year, but I'm glad Bauer won anyway.

I have 860k with an absolute god squad. I already have Mantle, Ruth, Trout, etc. (no money spent btw, I have no idea how I have so many stubs this year even after grinding collections), I might blow it all on packs and see what I can do for the community too.

I bought enough packs to bring my stubs down to 500k. Will go through my whole binder and do sell nows for every dupe.

I went fast through the packs and never looked at who I pulled. Evidently I pulled deGrom at some point. I might make profit on these lmao
