I'm going to take the counterpoint here. I have a neurological condition that sometimes affects my left hand. There are days its barely working, but I still want to play the game I love. So, I go directional. Its much easier for me to pick a direction and try to time my swing properly. I know I'm at a disadvantage competitively, but I love to play so much I don't care. I'm simply having fun playing a game I love.

Even if it's Scott Rolen?

Thanks to all that gave me suggestion slow AF players to get this done

This is helpful thanks

I can’t get the double for the life of me. I hit a double with naylor, Spencer Horowitz, and one other slow person and it won’t count it won’t count in play vs cpu. Not sure what to do

Finished the first inning program. Have a hit about 4 wheels spins (i've lost count). All offline programs done. Need to complete 7 live series teams (Braves, Phils, Mets, Pirates, Dodgers, Padres, DBacks). Other collections complete save for Spring Breakout (need to do the 4 showdowns) and New Threads (sitting at 24 of 28). Need 6 TA (Braves, Mets, Dodgers, Padres, DBacks, Brewers) to have all the captains but havent advanced more than that. I just started multiplayer on Monday and have made it to Mark Davis, but am hoping to get to Bautista by cut off tomorrow. All in all I enjoyed he first inning, looking forward to the second.

48 here and the same. I play for fun now because I know my competitive days are in the past.

looks great

I’ve had it crash twice in the last hour from what I can only imagine is overheating. It’s definitely n issue

i loved All_Star Baseball. Their expansion mode was awesome. I wish MLB The Show had expansion mode for franchise.

I have 1. Signature Jeter... a couple of P4s but doubtful i get another P5

Willie Wilson, Hal McRae, Kevin Seitzer, Jermaine Dye, Joakim Soria, Carlos Beltran and most importantly DAVID CONE, BO JACKSON

I've played games all week with squads littered with Set 1 cards... not sure what is going on but its pretty frustrating

Judge, Cole, Rodon all diamond... Cortes, Rizzo high golds...

I did buy the digital deluxe

Thats great to hear! I was in the exact scenario a few years ago and the form was invaluable to me. You learn to take the good with the bad, but just about any question you can think of, you can find a reasonable answer here.

I know this is a bit off topic but I’ll tie it back in to the game by the end.

I just had to say goodbye to my best buddy — a little pug named Nestor. I don’t know for sure how old he was, but I adopted him from DFW Pug Rescue back in June 2013. The rescue organization said they had his vet records showing he was 9 years old at that time. Who knows if that’s accurate, but I guess he was anywhere from about 16 to as old as 18.

Nestor has been my copilot through a lot over the last decade. He was the definition of a “velcro pug,” meaning he was never more than a few feet away from me when I was home. I decided to make this post because I needed a distraction and thought about firing up the PS4. But I don’t know if I can. Nestor has been there with me for probably 99% of my MLB:TS gaming over the years. He was there to listen to me complain about the line outs in 19, the defense in 20, the pitching in 21, and the game in 22. Playing this game and hanging out with my dude have gone hand-in-hand for years. The Show without my buddy is going to be a very lonely game.

I would like to encourage everyone to give a little extra hug to the unsung heroes who hang with us through our gaming. Whether it’s a dog or a cat or a lizard that poops all over you all the time, our animal allies are always there to support us. If you have a few bucks burning a hole in your pocket, please consider donating to a local shelter or rescue organization.

This is a great post. I'm a big supporter of shelters and rescue as well. Our current dog is a rescue we've had for almost 6 years now. I always encourage my family to donate to the local dog shelter in my name in lieu of gifts. Sorry for your loss.

I started playing DD in 20 during the pandemic. I've pulled Trout twice...both times in Jan of 22 when 21 was just about dead and his price was minuscule

JRam, Trout and Aaron Judge for me-lots of power the other way

I have zero problem with them. They generally lead to free cards and don't require a long grind.
