@tylerslikewhoa_xbl said in Hank Aaron is Charmander:
7th inning is trash
You’re not kidding. Believe it or not I might take Gwynn over Hank.
Yelich,Griffey,Harper and Jimmy Rollins all have great swings. For some reason lefties always have better swings. Not just in game but in real life too.
@thierry007007 said in Swings:
What define a great swing according to the community?
I didn’t exactly answer your question. A good swing doesn’t have a lot of hiccups in it. Meaning there isn’t a lot of extra movement. Just a clean fast swing that generates a lot of power and contact.
@jogger171717_psn said in Jonathan Villar:
I took villar and immediately sold him for 30k
I would’ve sold him too but I don’t need the stubs and also I’m an Orioles fan. He’s a hell of a lot better than Ripken in this game for my O’s theme team.
Yeah. Pitch repertoire is a huge part of pitching. Most hitters can hit a pitch if you keep throwing the same thing. Sit fastball or sit breaking ball and eventually you’ll have luck. A guy like Al Leiter who mixes speed,location and break type is hard to hit because of the uncertainty and incredible break. Not saying he’s the best pitcher in the game but he’s up there and has the best pitch mix IMO.

@mrad2010_mlbts said in Everyone talks about Chipper but..: I feel like Pablo Sandoval was highly underrated. Every stat with Pablo is higher than I had with Chipper. I know it’s probably just because I’m more comfortable with his swing but regardless he’s legit. I’m sure some of you don’t have him because he was part of the daily moments a while ago. Maybe they’ll re-release him at some point. Give him a chance. Super good. His defense is crazy too. Diving stops. Also I hit a home run so high with him one time I thought it was going to hit the roof. I’ve never seen that before with any other player. I can't wait to use Panda in the new event tomorrow!!!

@mrad2010_mlbts said in Will Arenado get another card?: I don’t know, Kind of thought this would be worthy of discussion. He is perennially good in real life but has had a relatively quiet year. Kind of was looking for a small debate on if he deserves one.

He’s a great ball player. I wouldn’t mind seeing a high diamond card from him. When he was still a 90 overall love series card I did really well with him. His speed is awful though.
I pulled Nate Pearson in the headliners double pack. First try. Then I bought 3 more and got nothing lol.

@poksey_mlbts said in Hank Aaron is Charmander: So many players begged for Hank Aaron. They release the best version of Hank Aaron for this season, and many of those that asked for it, will choose a fabricated future star over him. They did the same with Pedro, Soriano, and probably will with Aaron. Begged and pleaded for them to be in the game, but they arent "meta" enough so they are Ls. That Hank will be in my lineup probably until I stop playing. At least if he plays like his 94.

@snakeeyes23_psn said in Don Mattingly is cracked.:
I assume that the designers at SDS grew up in the 80’s and are big fans.
I mean Mattingly was a good hitter. If I’m not mistaken he was the hitting coach for the Yankees for a while.
@no-online-play-_psn said in Another 'Sell/Keep' post:
Just hit the XP for the Classics Pack. Picked Bundy. All 3 are around 28-25K after taxes; if I sell. Probably going to need all of them for collections. I assume these will stay around 20K; so probably not worth selling the one I have now and buying back?

Some of those cards go up in price after they’re no longer available. They’re not really usable cards but for collections you’ll need them.
80 something power means nothing. Martingly hits bombs. That swing is smooth as f….,
@chuckclc_psn said in Oh no Fernando!:
I think he will be pretty easy to hit on All Star. HoF he will be touger. Legend, uhg, dont want to think about that.
My bad…that’s what I meant.

Is there a pack in the store? or just the one you get from completing the program? (that others would complete and auction off)

The change up is like a 23 mph difference than his fastball. I think on higher difficulties he will be really good, When you know how to pitch with him, he’s extremely hard to hit. His pitches tunnel so well The curveball and changed break like they’re falling off a table. Might be the nastiest pitch break I’ve seen on any pitcher this year. Velocity is low but wow. Believe it or not, alot of my strikeouts come off the fastball by them swinging late lol You slow their bat down so much with the screwball and circle change Put ‘em in the rocking chair for pitching lingo. I pitched in college. I like how you think. After seeing 70mph and 80mph the 90 mph fastball looks 110mph. I think it’s why people struggle with certain pitchers. They see outlier and think they need to spam it. Once the opponent times it, all the adjustment they need to make is slow down on offspeed whereas if you establish a midtier baseline for swing speed, when they time that, then they have to adjust faster for outlier or slower on changeup for example

Fernando is really good. I just got Mattingly in the run it back pack. I’m working in getting Fernando and Kellenic now. They both look really good.
