I literally cannot play any online game mode. I go into matchmaking and then the rating range either drops to zeros and my game freezes or it kicks me from the matchmaking screen. I literally cannot play the game. I even reinstalled and the same issue is occurring.

Is there no reason to repeat showdowns now? Do you get xp for the first completion only now?

Let's be honest. It's the only difficulty that is actually fun. What good is a video game if it isn't fun. All the people who praise HOF and legend need to realize they're the minority and that they would have way more fun if they played on All-star.

If relief pitchers can be subbed in from the substitutions menu then there is no reason why starting pitchers aren't on the substitutions menu. Let us use 99 Ohtani in the field, every game we play.

This is your third different post about this. WE. GET. IT

I'm adamant

I think it's a coding issue

I bet they can find a way. The least they could do is make starting pitchers available in the substitutions menu just like relievers are now.

You just don't get it. They want you to buy the pitcher and hitter.

They aren't encapsulating the player he really is though

I find it ridiculous that they have locked certain Ohtanis to be pitchers and others to be position players. SDS is missing the mark on what makes Ohtani so special. He can play everyday. However, Ohtani in the show can't. This is ridiculous. You should be able to have him in your line up every game and then have his stamina still regenerate like a starting pitcher so you can't pitch him every game. Make this right SDS.

Definitely Santana. The dude has great hitting stats against both sides and is a switch hitter with a great stance and swing. Also isn’t the slowest with his speed in the 50s and has a very serviceable arm in the low to mid 80s

I did this and have not looked back. The Finley is a beast. Soriano is the next all around card in the game. The Glavine is absolutely filthy. I would do it and start building up those parallels.

People forget that MLB decides who wins this, not the Show. It's gonna be Trout and Acuna or Winker. Possibly even Degrom or Burnes. We are almost guaranteed to get the NL winner as the lightning card.

POTM in the show is selected by the dev team. They base it off of how a players live series card is rated and should preform vs how the real player preformed in a given month.

So guys like Vlad Jr, Burns, JD, Olsen are playing at a diamond level in real life but only have silver or golds.

Trout and Acuna based on their performance so far are pretty much living up to expectations card vs real life.

This is false. The card that they make in the game is one of the two players that win the MLB player of the month award for their respective league. It is not an SDS decision of who wins the award. It is an SDS decision of which one of the two they pick to make the card for. Trust me dude I have played this game since before player of the month cards were even a thing in this game. Go look back at some of the past ones from previous years. They all won the MLB player of the month award.

Can we justify no XP rewards for Ranking up in RS?.

This was very annoying to me when I noticed it.

They can make the player of the month card Trout when he wins it. That will be fair compensation

It makes sense guys. There is no longer an XP reward path that you progress all year long anymore. XP goes towards the innings programs which reset every month or so. So why give us XP for permanently locking in players if XP resets with every inning program. It really isn’t that big of a deal.

I wasn’t surprised by the title anymore once I saw the Xbox icon

Cutters are meta this year. Pitchers that throw a high 80s cutter with a mid to high 90s fastball are very good. Bauer is an example of one

I was debating selling my Trout to complete the NL collections and I pulled the trigger. Figured it was smart to get the cards I was interested in like the Soriano. Cards that I know will be in my lineup for the rest of the year and work towards paralleling them instead of parallel up my Trout just to sell him later on.

Prices of high diamonds haven't been going up since the full game came out which is odd compared to past years. His price might not rocket

One of the best teams every assembled. Gotta show them love.

You've got some nerve saying that man

I do come with the Nerves of Steel perk equipped

That comeback was so well executed that you must have picked it up through the camera in center field
