replace him with Set 2 Harper in order to get Harper's Arm Accuracy to 95 at P3, so he can count towards the 9 Captain boost requirments
just a heads up I'm pretty sure parallels don't count. as in the players have to meet the captain requirements naturally on the base card.
at least 3 event wins today didnt count. I'm at 13 wins and my last 2 wins have brought me to 13 wins again. I saw other complaining about BR stuff not counting. beware.

I will preface this by saying I am a first year xbox player and "git gud" may be the actual answer to this but I just dont understand how hitting works. Generally I'll end up with the about the same number of hits as my opponent but lose because 2 of their hits were homeruns while all my perfect/good swings are are flyouts to the warning track or liners caught by the infielders etc. So what are the other factors involved? I know pitcher stamina and confidence play a role and I know that i swing too much for sure but is pitcher confidence keeping all my good swings in the yard? and why? if a pitcher throws a "prefect" pitch and I square it up do I not leave the yard or even get a hit because the pitch was "perfect" and jus make weak contact instead? If I hit the same ball the same way as my opponent in the same spot but one pitch is "perfect" and the other is "early" is there a dfifference in contact or power? Is there a penalty for making contact outside the strike zone? and if so why?
or is it all jus a [censored] shoot and I should "git gud"
sorry for the long post I jus cant seem to drive in runs anymore
Everyone comes to the conclusion you are coming to after fully learning the game. The only answer is to play perfect and dominate your opponent taking it out of the hands of the RNG. Sometimes you just aren’t going to win.
sadly as a madden guy I can completely comprehend this. I'm fairly good I think at limiting mistakes so I guess my question is what can I do to mitigate rng in this game? In madden there seems to be tangible things you can do such as go on conservative carrying so you are way less likely to fumble or kickoff to the fullback instead of letting deion sanders return the ball. Not that any of that translates but I guess it just seems as though every time I turn the game on I have vastly different experiences despite the feeling of me being fairly consistent (maybe I'm not)

What type of TV/monitor are you playing on? Sometimes its as easy a adjusting some settings. What you're seeing and the feedback you're getting aren't always true.
acer predator xb241h. its slightly old by todays standards but is 144hz through display port. it only does 60hz through hdmi but im under the impression this game only runs at 60 fps anyway.
I dont really have a problem making contact I just dont understand what makes some hits a home run and others just can of corn flyouts? what determines if something is a hit OTHER than the obvious such as contact numbers, k/9 numbers, and swing timing/pci placement
I know you're not a dev and this is a rhetorical question but why even give us our opponents feedback if its not correct?
