Dude rakes. I have Mantle and still it’s usually Gleyber winning games with the bat for me. If you haven’t got him yet you need this card!
he is definitely a glitch
Sick card he’s literally carrying my team right now and his swing is great
His No Doubt HR animation might be one of the best in the game as well
@Nanthrax_1 said in what to do with Rendon..:
For me personally, I find his stance annoying and his swing is always late..
He's also been an easy out for me when I've faced him
I think I am going to sell him, I want to start stacking stubs towards Trout. Really want to finish the collection this year, and I figure Rendon will be cheaper later in the year.
@IIJACKINTHBOXII said in Is it worth it to lock in for MacKenzie Gore & Dylan Carlson?:
Gore is really solid. I like him a lot. He's got a good pitch mix and decent velo. Also easy to control.
Carlson is kinda meh. Defence is fine and he's a switch hitter, but his hitting attribute and swing aren't really that good.
I hit really well with Carlson, one of my top hitters so far. Absolutely right about Gore, love his pitch repertoire and his changes in velocity, absolutely filthy.
@eatyum said in In other news...:
Surprised that he doesn't work for you. Before I got Kluber and Newhouser, Prior was my ace. I love any pitcher that throws a slurve
76.2 innings, 3.76 ERA, 0.97 WHIP, 85 K's
I haven't used him yet, I was just going by the stats on his card, some pretty low /9's lol I liked his card last year, and after locking in the Cubs collection I have been tempted to use him but every time I look at those /9's I just can't bring myself to risk it lol

@DriveByTrucker17 said in Said screw the flash sale:
I said screw the flash sale, and bought as many as I could of Brian Roberts, Adam Dunn, and Tom Seaver.
Couple Brooks Robinson as well.
Remember, the richest men during the gold rush weren’t digging for gold, but were selling shovels for others to dig for gold.
Ok tell me why u invest in these cards please.
Last year, the early inning program golds became super expensive once Honus was released. No reason to think they won’t be the same way again this year.
And Robinson is an event reward, so once the event is over he won’t be obtainable ever again. After a while, his price will skyrocket.
I get that Robinson won't be attainable but is he going to be needed for a collection? if not, I can't see why anybody would want to buy that card, he doesn't really look that appealing to me. But if you are right and he is needed for a collection you will certainly be a genius, I wont be paying your exorbitant price though lol
He’ll be useable for the Honus collection whenever it shows up, plus he’ll have value for the sole reason of him being rare. Doesn’t matter if he’s good or not lol, just look at that gold Carlos Martinez from last year.
I did make a fortune off that Martinez card last year....alright you sold me.
Oh uhh, actually just disregard everything I said. You totally definitely absolutely should not buy any brooks Robinson cards for cheap and sell for a profit later. Nope, sounds like a bad idea to me. I wouldn’t do it, that’s for sure.
lol don't worry I have decided to invest in another of the rewards cards, Brooks is all yours lol

If this was a flash sale how did trout go up in price?
Wait until you see his price when the first stub sale drops, will make it look like he's been going for free this past month.
Thats what im waiting for lol im not dishing out a quarter millie y'all nuts
yea, he will be about 350,000 the first stub sale, I would suggest using the stub sale to stack stubs, wait a week, they will probably drop some headliner packs with a big name in it or there will be another flash sale and you may see his price drop slightly but I doubt he drops below 200,000 before October.
@BillsMafia863 said in Pudge Evo:
Give y’all a tip, before the final out, dashboard. Than when you load the game and go back to the mission, it doesn’t count that game or reset it. So if the first game you get 2 hits, and the next you only have 1 going into your last at bat. Just dashboard and it won’t count
If I get desperate at catcher I'll give this a try, just going to continue running with 2017 Gary, Pudges swing is just awful, I couldn't hit with him last year I don't know why I thought this year would be any different lol
@allmustfall16 said in Picked up Wander Franco yesterday:
I know he isn’t worth it. And I know it’s probably not very smart. But I like a lot of the prospect cards (especially the pitchers) and shortstop has been my weakest position all year (my cap is a catcher).
So hopefully he’s pretty good. Looking forward to using him online. I have 51 stubs left. Haha.
Gore is really the only one you need from that collection, Carlson rakes for me but Gore has been lights out. Let me know what you think of Wander, I am only a couple prospects away from him myself.
@ChuckCLC said in I just played the most odd RS game...:
Ah, so either their was a robbed HR or someone thrown out at the plate for a third out. Yep. Probably never be fixed.
thats actually what happened lol, I hit a ball to centre, the screen showed the ball rolling past the CF so I hit advance all, only for the screen to magically jump back to Buxton gunning my pitcher down at the plate, it then said the run scored but didn't count it the next inning lol. Never experienced that before, thought it was odd I guess its a well known issue lol

@JEEZY-E said in Things we might see in the 2nd inning:
I hope to see people realize there is a global pandemic going on and that SDS is not considered essential, nor should they risk their lives to appease a bunch of adult children.
Agreed,
To this point I think they have done a remarkable job at still supplying and supporting this game under the current conditions.
I like discussing topics like this in Hope's it provides some escape from the current news however I seem to forget that this forum is populated by entitled people who demand an issue be regardless of the ongoing that we are currently faced with
yep 100%, SDS could be the victim of a terror attack and the next day people would come on here complaining about communication and screaming for a patch to be put out immediately to fix pitch speeds.
People are dying in the thousands, but SDS should disregard state law, federal orders and medical advice, to fix fielding issues. I mean the way I see it is, if fielding is so broken and its costing people so many RS games, WHY CONTINUE TO PLAY RS UNTIL ITS FIXED!?.
is as excited, if not more excited for that gold Schoop being back than they are for the program bosses?

Where are the other two? Must be strongholds. Crappy they flash sell us the packs they give us free the next day, destroying market value
I agree (obviously). Feels like a 2k move.
Happy for the community getting some free stuff too though. Trying to be positive about it.
I like the idea of Wander being rare, but this killed that. I figured it would happen. Just didn’t think it would be the next day.
not a lot of people are locking in the prospects so he is still going to be rare, I locked in prospects for Gore for this exact reason though, I knew they would take a big hit as the game progressed so I was going to take a loss regardless so I figured I might as well get a couple of cards I like and want to use. Now that they have added that ballin' bundle I might just finish the collection lol.
Not his SS card from last year thats for sure.
my all time Jays line up from last year 
@Bob_Loblaw1984 said in Prestige XP:
They 1) spent a [censored] ton on stubs and completed every collection, 2) traded off in shifts with their friends when they were sleeping, and 3) grinded hr derby.
None of that sounds enjoyable to me.
I am at bronze 95 and already feel like I need a break, I somehow managed to grind out 100 program stars today and have no desire to continue until tomorrow, can't imagine being prestige xp in less than a month.

@Riican_2 said in Home run derby:
offline you get 25xp per home run
So 25 xp per home run x 8 x say 20 home runs thats 4000 xp just for the first round alone. It's boring but worth it for easy xp points.
I'll be honest I tried the online one last night and it was actually kind of fun lol a nice change from conquest, BR, RS and showdowns for me.
JUST PULLED A DOM THOMPSON- WILLIAMS!!!!
@nymets1987 said in Mantle 99:
I just think for the average player we will never be able to see players like Alomar Wagner and Mantle especially
I mean you can, you just have to dedicate to flipping, I made about 5k or so in 2 hours last night just flipping low end cards and duplicates
