I had a feeling they were going to do this but I still put myself through completing showdown yesterday anyway.

just got past Grove, gonna do these moments to get Clemente then come back and finish the showdown after. my 1st attempt at Felix i scored 7 so i know i can hit him.it will feel good to beat it after all the bs.

Yep my first time vs Felix I scored 7 to make it 20-19 so like you, I knew he was hitable. 3rd time around went into the Felix battle 20-12 again, but this time scored 9 runs with 1 out left to get the 20 points.

With parallel this card looks awesome. I never thought I’d say I’d give a brooks robinson card a try but ‍️

I'm saying the same thing to....99 Lefty Grove. His long release seems better but the pitches they gave him OMG.

@superpumper1_psn said in Well, I tried…:

We should start a 50 plus league. Pitchers can only throw changeup and 5 built in bathroom breaks per game...lol

Ha Ha. I haven't gotten to that point yet only 48.

I'm 48. If you think about it, if it wasn't for us keeping the video game industry going in our teens, these 16 year olds wouldn't have video games to play in the 1st place.

I used this card last year and loved it.

@quinnymcquinn said in What poor MLB team do you continue to beat ruthlessly?:

What MLB team do you continue to state grind on and just mercifully beat the s**t out of?

I know the obvious are the Rockies and Orioles. Anyone switch it up? Tigers? Rangers? What team do you make your B?

Also what are some of the most ridiculous crooked numbers you’ve put up on them. Inning? Entire game?

Unfortunately it might end up being my Cubbies instead of the Orioles. I mean look at that line up and pitching staff

@kingakp_xbl said in For those still chasing Mookie or just collectors in general.:

There is a Prime Orlando Hernandez and Awards Series Perez to be had for under 10k. Very helpful if you're lacking some cards for those.

Yep. Picking them both up tomorrow after I complete the Field of Dream program. That way I will know for sure what I need.

I don't have issues with Madden itself. What I gave an issue with is how EA treats its players and in some cases throws their on air talent under the bus to try to explain issues with the game instead of EA itself.

@bloopnablast_34_psn said in LOL @ SDS their last hurrah to keep players:

I love it, you’ll see me playing there a lot! Batters eye looks good too. Moonshots to the stalks!

Can't wait to play tomorrow at Field of Dreams stadium. It's cool that you get it as the 1st reward (point 1).

@untchable704_psn said in Verlander…:

I’m not paying a million for him. But him and Lindor look solid.

Lindor looks like a slower Wander with a worse arm.

I was kind of disappointed in Lindors attributes to be honest. Verlander on the other hand will definitely be in my starting 5.

Let’s be real now. She did not stop him; hardly even broke his stride.

Man, some people are just determined not to feel good about anything. Nobody really cares about this, but it was just a fun moment in baseball. She clearly impacted his route to the wall and I really don't understand your need to rain on what little joy the OP was trying to bring to this often-depressing forum. Nobody is saying she should start for the Kansas City Chiefs or anything. We're just acknowledging a cool moment.

Definitely not the Cheifs, but maybe my Bears

I don't even use 94 Cabrera. I use 99 Ohtani, 99 Degrom, Felix Hernandez, Wheeler, etc.

@slimcaturrrday_psn said in LOL @ SDS their last hurrah to keep players:

who cares about Madden ...geezus.

Apparently the few who keep posting on here about how much better Madden is then MLB The Show 21 are the ones who care. I don't get the reason behind it, but that's just me.

C-Ya. This is the only game I play and don’t ever see that changing. If you love baseball, this is a great game (flaws and all). If you just like playing video games, then go find another one.

Exactly. I left Madden to try MLB The Show 20 out and I'm not going back. Having too much fun playing baseball.

Exactly

In my opinion there's no comparison between MLB The Show and Madden content as MLB The Show blows Maddens away.

I think it is even more simple then that. Ones baseball and one is football. If I want to play football I dont care how good this game is I am gonna play Madden. If I want baseball it doesnt matter how good Madden is I will be playing this. It isnt like they are competing same sport games. They are gonna have the same numbers every year.

Very true. I just find it interesting that when a game comes out someone always has to trash the game they have been playing instead of just moving on to the new game.

And did you remember to announce on the forums for Madden that you were leaving for MLB the Show?

Nope I just stopped playing and started playing MLB The Show 20. Really didn't see a reason to announce it. I truly hope Madden players enjoy this year's game and hope EA has made the necessary changes so they can do so.

@whiplash0013_psn said in They thought this would keep us from Madden:

@kovz88_psn said in They thought this would keep us from Madden:

No they expect EA to keep people away from Madden

This was going to be my response as well, EA does that just fine on their own.

Absolutely. That's why I moved to MLB The Show last year. EA did great job making me realize there was time for a change.

This program will actually help me complete the Mookie collection so I can't wait.

@lewisnadasurf1_psn said in Mookie. Worth it?:

@lewisnadasurf1_psn said in Mookie. Worth it?:

If you bought all the cards straight up he’d cost about $5,000.

You can probably buy a signed Mookie Betts bat, ball and glove for that.

Very good point especially if you start from scratch right now.

As far as your Mookie bat, ball Jersey idea, for about $2100 you can get a signed ball, bat and Jersey from last year's World Series autographed by Mookie Betts (I was curious so I looked it up ).

Well, there we go. You can buy 2 of each and just sleep in the spare jersey at bed time.

• but of course you won’t have the digital card with little to no value.

So very true. You know with the left over $800 you could probably fly to LA, stay overnight, get a ticket to a game & see Betts live. However like you said the down side is no digital card of Betts with zero value that you may or may not be able to hit with.
