I won’t post their PSN. But their team name is “xbh with postseason players I quit please” and they bat Joc and Muncy 1 and 2 with no other postseason players.

I’m just trying to prestige Kershaw and quit after 2 innings usually anyways. This guy squared up to bunt before I can even decide if I’ll help him or not. Whatever I let him bunt his xbh’s. He tries to score the lead runner so I throw him out. When he doesn’t quit I’m now determined to win and realize I have to strand the runner with one out. Doesn’t work. He hits a bomb first pitch and replays it. I eventually fought back and hit a walk off for the win. I’m not very good so to come back in a 3 inning game on hall of fame was by far my most satisfying win of the year.

Keep an eye out for that guy.

So after some googling it looks like 17 was the last year you could play online franchise. Me and a buddy are considering purchasing the game for $20 just to go back and play that feature. I know games turn online servers off and I’d have to believe 17s has been turned off by now. Would we still be able to play online franchise or no?

@bhall09 said in Ruth grind starters?:

I do think they are changing, at least from what I’ve seen here. I beat Yankees a couple days ago when Paxton was starting and now I’m facing Paxton again for the Mariners when I was expecting a RHP

If you’re playing the Mariners and Paxton’s pitching then they definitely are changing. I know for a fact I faced Felix.

@JaymesTime said in Do you like CAPs?:

How is it realistic to have Trout and Mantle in the same outfield? DD is not a realistic game mode.

“If you want a CAP go play RTTS”

If you want realistic go play franchise.

That's exactly what DD was made for. What if you could play with any of the best players of all time on the same team?

Yes and I love DD but it’s not realistic either. So the argument that CAPs aren’t realistic is kinda ridiculous.

I enjoy having a CAP. It’s not for everyone tho. If you don’t like it don’t make one.

Started players league Blake Snell every game. Probably only gave up 1 or 2 runs the entire program.

Also Kike’s Topps card hit a couple solo shots that kept me from having to go into a 4th inning

AL Central is ALL righties

White Sox - R Dunning
Indians - R Kluber
Tigers - R Mize
Royals - R Greinke
Twins - R Walter Johnson

So far I’ve finished the AL East so for anyone else...

Orioles - R Palmer
Red Sox - R Cy Young
Yankees - L Paxton
Rays - L McKay
Blue Jays - R Pearson

@Hikes83 said in Ruth grind starters?:

The divisional and final game are all righties. All i know

Thanks. I finished those first before even coming up with this idea smh...but that’ll be helpful for others who may view this post.

Sorry if something like this has already been posted. I checked back a few pages before posting.

Has anyone compiled a list of the starters for each team in the grind?

I’ve set all lefty and all righty lineups to try to avoid playing any extra inning games but so far teams have been throwing me for a loop. I assumed it would be each teams best pitcher but 6 teams in and I’ve faced Mariners player of the month Paxton in the Yankee game and Dunning as opposed to Sale for the White Sox.

Anyone who’s finished that would like to take the time to list them would be greatly appreciated. Same for a link to a list that may have already been posted. Thanks.

The description has not been changed to

“You owe it to yourself to be the best you can be. - Javier Baez“

There still seems to be no way to customize them. I wonder if these were even the customizable socks being talked about.

Was it in events? I played someone today in events where everything seemed fine...but several times the game wouldn’t allow me to choose a pitch. The pitch would default it and I’d accidentally start the meter still trying to pick my pitch. Caused me to give up a few homers. Also once my outfielder wouldn’t throw it in and cost me an out at 2nd. Everything else was fine. Seemed kinda fishy.

Why do you care lol?! Be grateful it’s a free diamond from YOUR team!

And I’m sure if Big Papi’s 2005 Red Sox card was wearing #27 that wouldn’t bother you at all right?

I don’t care, it’s a fictional game with them releasing 99’s that haven’t played in the MLB yet lol

Ohh good for you then. But not everyone has to share your opinion. Cosmetics in a game can be important to some people.

Did I ever say you have to share my opinion? I just stated mine

You asked why I cared and told me to be grateful. I told you why I cared and now understand you don’t share the same opinion as me. That’s fine. I don’t understand why certain people on this forum go out of there way to be condescending and then play innocent after.

I don’t think you know what an opinion is...

I’d ask you to enlighten me on what an opinion is then....but I’m done going back and forth with you man. My opinion is that cosmetics in the game like correct shoe sponsors and numbers for cards matter. I bet some others in the community share that opinion, while some others don’t care as well. That’s okay and I’m leaving it at that.

Ok, you can have your opinion then. Mine is saying it is just a video game that is pixelated not real life. All I'm saying is that you should play the game and have fun, Grandal performs the same whether he wears #9 or #24

True. You have a different opinion and I respect that. You’re actually lucky little things like that don’t bother you. It can get annoying.

he is #9

In the moments he was for me. Once I put him on my team it switched to his live series # tho.

I kinda wonder if it’ll be like Reggie Jackson where it switches back and forth for some reason.

I played a low scoring RS game, where late in the game my opponent got hot and put up like 8 in a half inning. I decided to quit but wanted to step off the mound and show a sign of respect first. I’m an idiot though and didn’t know the button. After I spammed the dpad buttons and triggers I realized what you saw was “opponent entered quick menu” over and over again. The game eventually threw a pitch for me, you hit a bomb and then replayed it. Probably because my quick menu stunt. I humbly accept the HR replay for my actions.

Your messages were turned off so if you see this...that’s my bad. I was trying to show respect and accidental came across as a sore loser.
