@warrior-num-6 said in The Show Cover Curse?:

@Mazter-Baitur The year Tatis Jr. was on cover he was suspended the whole year!

Incorrect. Tatis was on the cover of MLB The Show 21. He was suspended in Aug of '22.

@Mazter-Baitur I don't know. I got mine with Witt Jr vs CPU at the Polo Grounds.

@virusts You can use every card FOREVER, except the ones you can't. You're right - strange indeed.

@Mazter-Baitur_XBL said in TA2 Showdown Skipping:

So I completed the Central and West showdowns today and skipped the showdown before the final to avoid losing by chance. Anyone else find themselves doing this since you have 20 outs to score 6 runs. It’s just one less headache to avoid for sure.

In the East? That's what I did. I played all the ones for the Central. On the West now.

So I finally got my first Season 2 XP Path Incognito player but when I go to use him for my DD squad he doesn’t show up? Is anyone having this issue or can you not use them?

Do you have his lower tier card as a duplicate?

Yeah I’m a dumba$$, I did, I just didn’t notice it. Thanks lol

No sir, that’s not on you…..this is entirely on SDS…..for as long as I’ve been playing you’ve been able to at least see or compare higher to lower tiered cards of the same guy…..if you tried to add a duplicate, you’d get an error that said the player was already in the lineup.

This change makes no sense…there are times I like to compare the same players card to see if there are better attributes I prefer, and now you have to remove him, then hope they’re on the same or adjacent pages in the available player menu, otherwise you scroll for days to find them (another change lost on me!). There’s definitely some QOL changes here that benefit no one.

@energystar157_PSN said in Lineup Ideas:

First spots are for guys I need PXP and stats for TA1 missions (to be replaced with TA2 some day). Then, PXP guys for lower priority programs. Anything left (usually 1 or 2 spots) Mexico City guys to grind that program. If I can, I alternate L/R. If it isn't painfully obvious, I only play off-line. And man, the more I read these boards, the more grateful I am that I do.

Online just isn't fun, i'm also a offline player. Waiting on the next other program to grind. Might just be the tops now players this week though.

@romeischillin said in Strange TA Moments:

Fastballs (4-seam, 2-seam, cutters mostly) up and in... breaking stuff down and away (sliders, curveballs - especially knucklecurve and sweeping curver)... sinkers and change/circle change low in the zone.

Yeah that’s exactly how I pitch and these mofo’s still manage to hit them or foul them off 20 times. Pitched the same way with Gray and they couldn’t hit it at all.

that's just the nature of the beast I guess. I've had it where I wasn't able to get it do to the last batter flat out refusing to go down but if you get them to swing enough you can eventually get them with a "waste" pitch out of the zone (not touching the black) and they should be able to swing and miss and/or not check their swing in time...

it's all trial and error at that point... I don't have too many issues with repeating pitching moments, it's the hitting ones that frustrate me but just gotta keep plugging away at it until you can't... and when you can't move on to the next one or take a break (for 15 minutes to an hour or so, depending on your gaming availability) and refresh for another go at it.
