Haven’t been playing but thought of you. Hope you had as great of a day as I did bringing this kid up finally. I hate losing Noots, but so far so good.

What a debut. Go Cards

Keep doing God’s work Dolenz

Do with it as it may, been away for a bit and haven’t played could care less

Galvanize against the destruction these ding dongs are doing to our game

Miss ya love ya

It’s kind of sad for a video game that you have so much more fun not playing it.

Think on that devs

@Dolenz_PSN

Still very solid. We’re pretty lucky to have diamonds at every position

@Teak2112_MLBTS

I certainly would have thought so, but who knows. I haven’t seen it officially, just mentioning a Reddit posit I saw on it

Apparently Schwarber is the retro lightning (June 2021). Says a Reddit post

@Onix_Savage22_PSN

See that looks like a pretty darn good team too. I’d probably at this point play with the better card, but it could be you hit better with the 88 Ortiz. I personally think the +6/+6 is worth it to pass into everyone else but your results may vary.

I also am low rank so never over all star online really so maybe that extra juice works out for me.

However I currently am only running the Lee Smith boost, I’ve found I don’t really need the Carpenter hitter boost and I suck with his 88.

Really hoping for new Captains soon

@Onix_Savage22_PSN said:

Does anybody actually use theme teams or captain boosts in dd. I have a redsox lineup haven’t used it tho. And if so I know he won’t get the boost but v mart played for the redsox so is using his 99 cheap or ok even tho he’s a tiger card. Same with mookie. I know a few people in here have there cardinals teams how do u guy use these players? Like let’s say they drop a 99 Pendleton but he’s a brave or they dropped Chris carpenter and he was a jay.

I use my Cardinals team in events and ranked only, as I’ve got the #1 Fans thing / TA completed and I have a blast playing god squads with them. It’s more fun and challenging to play other people with it, a bigger sense of accomplishment when I win.

I play offline with all the other teams/god squads for TA

I use Sonny Gray and Steve Carlton as they were cardinals, as well as old bullpen arms like Andrew Miller and Eckersley so long as they were a Cardinal once otherwise I just level up my bronze cards.

STL is very fortunate as their pure Cardinals player lineup is actually quite good, and absolutely ace defense if P5’d. I run:

1. Ozzie SS
2. Willie CF
3. Pujols 3B
4. Berkman 1B
5. Rainiel DH - (sub Captain Carpenter sometimes)
6. Simmons C
7. Wetherholt 2B
8. Edman RF
9. Lou Brock LF

@Teak2112_MLBTS

Ahh. Yeah that would interesting to know. Maybe @sds_joek could shed some light

@JDHalfrack_PSN [said](/post/

Oh, that's a good point. Unless SDS also releases some into the market at program launch? I've often wondered that.

That would be incredibly lame if so - I guess the only way to check that is have someone look at the same stats Teak listed like 5 minutes after a new program drop. If there’s thousands in 5 minutes that’d be pretty telling

@JDHalfrack_PSN

Not really though unless I’m misunderstanding, if there’s 150k Acuna out there, purchasable or no, it means 150k people have had to complete that part of the program to even list him

@Teak2112_MLBTS

I think that’s great Acuna was attained by 150k. A lot higher than I would have thought

@Dolenz_PSN

Giggity

@Sarge1387_PSN

Yeah, same. I’ve seen it 104. He’s always been tough in every year

@Sarge1387_PSN

It’s funny isn’t it? I need 1 win and 3 HRs but I keep running into Nolan Ryan.

I simply can’t hit him. He’s kind of mean

I try to just sit offspeed but I of course start chasing the fastball like an idiot. That FB/change combo is brutal

@DeleteyourTTVBTW_MLBTS

I’m close to finishing the mediums, don’t think the 75k will be obtainable for me but the extra XP and the Acuna are nice features. I may try out the BR, not sure if it’s worth my time or not. I’ll probably give it a go for an entry or two

@Simple-Jack3998_XBL

I have had no issues with ranked in the past few hours. I did have troubles this morning though - but it was nonstop connection errors that wouldn’t even let me into the game. It got corrected eventually

Sounds like a weird bug for you

@On_a_Power_Trip_PSN said:

@PriorFir4383355_XBL interesting - would love to see how something like that went down with the community tho lol

It would be a mass exodus, or the forums would blow up like they did Friday with pitchforks

No way they could so something like that in the middle of this release. Maybe in a new game but I think you’d have more people riled up than already are

@LIONED-33_XBL

Right on. I guess we’ll find out at 3 if he’s getting one

Yeah I don’t know, some interesting thoughts. People do enjoy playing the market and collecting cards. Something about landing a card in a pack gives that dopamine hit that we all like. When it happens.

I doubt they could realistically axe the entire market. I think that’d tick a lot of people off but who knows

@Onix_Savage22_PSN

I completely forgot he had a new threads. I should have been using that as my 5th starter instead of my crappy bronze Liberatore

Guess I’ll wait and see if they give him a new card. A little late to parallel the old one
