On my favorite team, the Tigers:

• Jeremy Bonderman
• Mark Fidrych
• Brandon Inge
• Carlos Guillen

Inge in particular—phenomenal third baseman. I’ve played MLBTS since 2016 and I don’t think I’ve ever seen flashback cards for any of these guys.

I’m playing a conquest game right now and I’m noticing that every player that I bring up the stats for says “free agent” under their name. This is occurring for live series players (examples from my current game: LS Shelby Miller and LS Jarren Duran) and throwback cards (such as Paul O’Neil and Derek Jeter from the Jeter program).

I was concerned that this would affect collecting stats for team affinity, but luckily this is not the case (I finished up the game while writing this and I’m looking at the endgame screen now). Just a visual bug, really.

Curious if anyone else is seeing this, too?

This is inexcusable

First time? Almost every server maintenance the app doesn't come back up until the afternoon

I just want to get some baseball in before I go to work at 3:00 pm.

This is inexcusable

@TigersDen813_XBL said in Server Maintenance:

Still down as of 9:10 EST

Still down as of quarter till 10

Also getting errors when I buy now, sell now, or place an order

@sideshowcorey_psn said in White screen freeze:

While viewing my inventory the screen will go white and freeze. I can still switch to the bottom options, but, I am having to delete and reinstall. Once my inventory goes white it stays that way. iPhone 13

I am getting the same issue on a fully updated iPhone and app. Wth!

Closing the app and refreshing it temporarily fixes the problem but it keeps happening…

I’m trying to access the companion app but when I try to log in it says login failed, servers are temporarily unavailable. Servers being temporarily unavailable can mean any of a number of things though, so what’s going on?

Using iPhone 12 Pro on the latest iOS, and the app is also the latest version.

@fatal1500__psn said in servers:

Whoever is in charge/works on servers needs to be canned.

Something is going wrong for sure. I’m trying to start a game against the CPU but it keeps saying “challenge failed” and “lost connection with opponent”

How do you lose connection to the computer

@ericulous1_psn said in Cards you will NEVER use again.:

Don't get me wrong, I like missions where I have to try cards I probably wouldn't use otherwise and sometimes I end up with a gem I wasn't anticipating.

The Henchmen in the Sizzling Summer program were not those Gems. I put them all in for XP and only hit well with Eloy Jimenez.

Prospect Jo Adell- no joke I went like 4-35 with 1 HR and 1 RBI. Never again.

Frank Thomas. I’m sorry. For some reason he can’t hit for me no matter how good his stats.

@blind_bleeder said in SD Joe Musgrove Moment not coded correctly:

One of the criteria to complete it is to not give up two hits. I gave up two hits (in the bottom of the 9th), and it let me complete the Moment.

My issue was that when I allowed a “hit”, it shouldn’t have happened to begin with. The shift was on but for some reason the first baseman made no effort to get to the bag while I was fielding the ball, and was still off to the right of the base when I threw it to him.

So I guess the infielders aren’t coded correctly?

These uniforms are in the collection lists, but when I try to look for them on the market it says “listing not found.” So where are they? How can I get them?

The uniforms are:

• Baltimore Orioles Home 1901
• Houston Astros Alt Home 1997
• Oakland Athletics Road 1975
• Seattle Mariners Alt Road 1997
• Chicago White Sox Alt Home 1999
• New York Yankees Road 1903
• Toronto Blue Jays Road 2001
• Pittsburgh Pirates Alt 1997
• Milwaukee Brewers Alt Home 2013
• Cincinnati Reds Road 1999
• Chicago Cubs Road 1908
• Philadelphia Phillies Home 1944
• San Francisco Giants Home 1958

My notifications for marketplace transactions haven’t been showing up in the app since 9:36 AM. I have been making market transactions since that time, but none of them have shown up on the notification page within the app.

My iphone is fully updated to the latest OS and the app is the latest version.

I have closed the app and refreshed it, and shut down & restarted my phone, but neither have solved the issue.

What is going on?

@chriscolbert_mlbts said in Is Trout no longer worth it.:

He’s never been worth his cost from an actual usability standpoint. His worth is obviously tied to being the perennial gatekeeper for the live series collection although he’s getting passed quite a bit these days. There are a ton of better OF options if completing the live collection is not your motivation.

Agree. He’s 400k because he’s Mike Trout. I do wonder who the LS collection gatekeeper was before him?

@ericulous1_psn said in Best hitters in the game that you can't hit with.:

Michael Young 96 Sig Series. He and I have a challenging relationship. I was excited to make him my legends ss over Ernie Banks (see below) and I just go on 0-10 type runs. Offline against Vetern and sometimes Rookie I am hitting .308 with 1 HR. Yikes in like 40 ABs.

Ernie Banks 93 All Star- I might as well just watch every pitch and try to walk as I can't hit the broad side of a barn with Ernie. Luckily there are several new options for ss now.

Who are yours?

You're back!! Welcome back my friend.

@bodamescapeplan said in Any Legends that you miss and hope they bring back?:

For me, I really miss Hanley Ramirez and Carlos Beltran.

I almost always had that Impact Veteran Hanley or his Sig Series in my lineup or at least on my bench. He was always so clutch for me. His numbers would never be insane or anything but he came up with so many timely hits -- just such a fun card to use I remember. He's someone who immediately stands out for me.

I think the last time we had Beltran in the game was The Show 17, if I'm not mistaken and SDS released a Post-Season series card of his in the Ticket Store (the OGs will remember the Ticket Store) that was a 99 overall. I remember seeing it in just about everyone's lineup and he was often cited as the best hitter in the game and it was a pretty universally agreed upon.

Anyone else you guys have fond memories of that is no longer in the game?

@suntlacrimae50_mlbts said in No Cookies for Rookies:

Worst change SDS made to single player DD this year: cpu pitchers on rookie difficulty throwing absolute garbage most of the time. Makes grinding a chore. Way to make single-player grinding feel more like moments, SDS. Ugh.

THAT'S what I'm complaining about today.

In offline play, some pitches I put on one part of the plate are on the opposite side of the plate without my input. It makes no sense. I've noticed it more in conquest though.

@schnauzerface said in Update 8 Patch Notes!:

Why can't they fix the stupid progress screen window that shows up after each game? It is super useful when grinding PXP for the monthly awards and the legend/flashback missions for the main program.

My progress screen is fine. Are you on previous generation consoles?

@tmichae10_psn said in Blackmon's All Star card:

Blackmon has been my personal nemesis for years. Doesn’t matter the difficulty or version of his card…..consistently makes me hate his face.

#beardbrothers

No-beard Blackmon is a different person to me lol. Hard to imagine him without it
