What if you're wrong? Can we all come on here and point that out? Will there be hats being digested?

Why dashboard? Why couldnt you just quit?
Because I felt like it....and I don't cry about it when it happens to me.
You cried about it.. by coming on here after 20 pitches, starting a thread with that title..
All of a sudden? This has been the case since March
Kent, Cepeda and Marichal are not better than Walker. Not even close..

Marlins park so you can picture it:
17 hits combined
8 runs combined
7 of those runs on HRs
Cargo pulls a low and away slider into the right center upper deck (how realistic)
Ball still hangs in the air too long, Yelich ran down at least 5 gap shots he had no business getting to
But that is because they have the fielder speed slider up. I ran down a foul ball halfway down the line with 55 speed Nolan Gorman, from the SS position cause he was in the shift. Thats about a 3 second 40 speed.
This game is done, stick a fork in it. They will never get it right.I'm reading the runs and hits combined and I'm not seeing even remotely a problem here. It's right in line with what an mlb game average is...
Incorrect. All of the runs coming off of HRs except 1 isnt what happens in the MLB. People actually drive in runs without hitting it out of the park. Players also dont pull away pitches into the upper deck.
I also forgot to include that I was "very late" on an 88mph fastball because the game cant handle me having someone else on base so it lags my swings.
You must not watch baseball. It's actually extremely accurate that in this one case, most runs came by the homer. That has never been more realistic than now in today's game.
After 2 months of needing Trout, Verlander and Cole and not focusing on that because of that stub wall, I pulled Cole and Verlander back to back days with Affinity and BIAH packs!
Trout will never be cheaper so I bought him..
Super pumped to finally have Mick in CF. Is he the best card? Or am I excited for nothing, considering there's lots out now..
Why in the F is there a 97 Dustin May card...
It's so uneven.. Gore, Mize, Luzardo and Pearson are all better pitching prospects and have 90 rated cards at best
What was the point of the prospect series?? It feels so half baked, like they pivoted after the fact and completely messed up the balance of everything..
Content this year is a total F so far for me, not in quantity but in half baked ideas and a terrible roll out of these bad ideas

Can we get 99 Olerud back to 6'5 and not 6'?
His 93 is correct...

Gurriel Jr has gotten hot at the right time. It’s a crowded outfield and I think this off season it’s time to wave goodbye to Grichuk, the guy is just too cold a majority of the season. Also, Trent Thornton needs to go the way of Tanner Roark and Tyler Chatwood.
Unfortunately Grichuk isn't going anywhere. That contract is immoveable... He's a 4th OF making 10mill per...
Gurriel/Springer/Teo are locked in for sure though.
Unless Cleveland would like to flip Jose Ramirez for Gurriel..Thornton can be shot out of a cannon
$10 million is not high in today’s standards, I’m sure some team wanting a veteran place holder with some power would take him on, if not eat 50% of his salary. Think he’s only got two years left after this. His defence isn’t bad either so he does have some value, I mean he is hitting better than Bellinger this year, but so is half the league.
If you're going to eat half his salary (10mill of 20 owed) you'll still get nothing back for him, so why trade him at all? He's useful as a 4th outfielder.. he just shouldn't be used against RHP or late in games (his RISP and high leverage numbers are absolutely horrendous).
Only way he goes is if the Jays take back an equally garbage contract. An overpaid reliever perhaps.

I'm the same. I hate Mantle's stance. I'm late on everything and jam the sticks more than usual to make up for it

Jays
99 Vlad, 96 Semien, 95 Groshans, 99 Donaldson, 96 Shawn Green, 97 Teoscar, 91 Cavan Biggio. Just missing a catcher.... Hoping for a future stars Gabriel Moreno or TN Kirk for the 2 homer game at Yankee Stadium....
99 Molitor, 99 Thomas, 99 Olerud, 97 Glaus, 87 Carter..
99 Ray, 99 Pearson, 97 Leiter, 97 Price, 94 Burnett
95 Henke, 96 Hendricks, etc in pen.
I run a Jays theme, although I’m a little more of a stickler. I don’t run Groshans because he hasn’t played a game with the big club so I alternate Semien and Bichette at short.
I also have Rickey Henderson on the bench, need some speed sometimes. And Alomar.
In the pen I’m trying to remember aside from the mentioned names who I run. LS Giles and Osuna, sig series Soria are ones that come to mind.
93 Dan Plesac, 91 Ryan Tepera would be a couple more I run
I was bored of doing god squads by MLB the show 16.. which is the 2nd real DD...
It's much more fun building all-time team rosters as best you can and beating opponents that way.
And Joe Carter I can definitely use!

@the_dragon1912 said in DEVS: Why is 99 Sig Olerud 6' tall? He's 6'5!:
Is he actually 6" in game or just on the card? Thats what matters. There is a noticeable difference between 6" and 6"5' during gameplay
He's 6'0.. way shorter in game..
@kingakp_xbl said in DEVS: Why is 99 Sig Olerud 6' tall? He's 6'5!:
Im not knocking Olerud, he was a great player for a few years. All the rest he was just good. They should have done a milestone catd for him.
Oh ya, I agree. He was my fav as a kid, but ya, he's no HOFer... But he did put up some huge years. '93 in particular was insane. He had an amazingly smooth swing.
