Stop quick pitching
There is no such thing as quick pitching in this game. Either you’re ready or you’re not. Pitchers dictate the pace of play.
Yeah I wouldn't pay a grand to watch the player play in real life, much less a video game.
Everyone calling the name change cancel culture in this thread clearly doesn't even understand the definition of cancel culture. This isn't some TV host having to resign over making an absurd comment.
The Indians changing their name has been coming for a long, long time, just like the Redskins. This isn't a university using the name of a tribe with permission and respecting the name. It's a little different when your entire team history is built around a funny caricature of an actual group of oppressed people.
All that being said, Guardians is a terrible replacement.

If you think about it, anyone can be offended by any name. The Indians isn’t that far off from Yankees if you think about it (Civil War). What’s next, someone will be offended by the Blue Jays cause one broke their bird feeder? We’re at that point. How about the White Sox? I’m offended! Found a hole in one of mine…

I know you think you're being clever, but comparing people being offended over a type of bird or sock to a group of historically oppressed people who were killed in mass ... is not clever.
I haven't touched Showdown this year and am not sure if I will. I know MTO takes longer, but I don't really care because I know I'm getting TA points out of it each time and I don't spend the whole time cussing at my TV.

@schwizzle_nizzle said in Cleveland Gaurdians:
Are they going to go back and digitially change the logos and names on the jerseys in Major League? Voice over any mention of "Indians" in the movie? Yikes!
No. Because it's a movie from 1989 and not a baseball team playing in the present.
You guys are making my day with these terrible attempts at humor. It's like they're so unfunny that they're funny.
The game has both skill and luck components just like real baseball, but I think it still leans skill. If you are a really bad player, you will lose most of your games but steal a few wins here and there. If you are a really good player, you will win most of your games and have a few stolen here and there. I don't see anything wrong with that in a general sense.
@halfbutt_psn said in Take R2ing out of the game.:
Here we go again. If everyone came set before pitching, it would be much less of a problem. You guys saying quick pitching doesn’t exist in the game are probably slide stepping with Kenley Jansen.
People R2 even when you come to a set. I actually think the idea is more to throw you off than to slow things down.

I guess I’ll say it one more time: People hold R2 primarily to throw the pitcher off - not because things are moving too quickly. It happens to me even when I am taking time between pitches or come to a complete set. Of course they do and every one of them in here are using every excuse under the sun to try to keep that ability. They don’t care about anything they are typing.

Stop complaining and suggest something to SDS that they may actually implement based on actual gameplay, not your hissy fit about having to wait a second now and then. I also have not faced a single person who "holds it every single pitch" like you both say. I don’t even use slide step lol. I just don’t care enough to. If you don’t take a secondary lead I don’t care what you do. So take out r2 and r3 l, add last AB pitches, pitchers repertoire and batter stats to hud and make the pitcher pause a second before each pitch. Boom we all win and we’re done here.

Ding ding.
I'm probably going to be a lot busier this summer and don't think I'll have the time (or patience) to grind out tons of moments for free cards.
If I were to get the credit card out, about how much would it cost to maintain a competitive DD team throughout a six-month period? I figure the number is probably quite high - rough estimates are fine.
Glad it's not just me. Even if I manage to sneak in a lead with 99/99 Turner, he's still getting a bad jump and thrown out about 50% of the time. It used to be that you could exploit players who don't pay any attention to runners, but that's not the case now.
102 mph up and in is impossible to hit and everyone knows it. Even worse if it has movement like DeGrom's. Then there are the 100 mph up and in sinkers.
This game is just so much more fun earlier on in the life cycle when you don't have to deal with this kind of stuff every game. I wish there was more of an incentive to play events because the lineup/rotation restrictions make the game a lot more fun.

I honestly think they should have left it at Cleveland Baseball Club and just put Cleveland across the jersey. When you really think about it, most team nicknames are kind of dumb.
