its because all-star and they contact swinging

@mlbts_mlbts said in Do not sleep on monthly awards brandon crawford:

How much contact does he have vs left?

like 45 or something but ive hit 2 homeruns off lefties, His pci size isnt bad even at 45 compared to some guys on hall of fame, His swings fast enough where its like gallos you get pci anywhere near ball its hit for a nuke with the huge power he has vs both sides.

Dudes got a god tier swing, Seen his no doubt animation 5 times in 11 at bats in ranked seasons, Its just as quick and powerful as griffeys swings.

@dewrock_psn said in Alright sds this is stupid as hell now.:

It's amazing how people still come on here to complain every time they lose a game because apparently they're so awesome that they should never lose. No matter how awesome you are or think you are, you're not entitled to win every game. And just because you lose, it doesn't mean that you're somehow being screwed over by the game.

Also, how do you know what kind of swing the other person is using?

Because the feedback shows you based on size of pci chances are if the yellow bits huge its contact

So you're telling us you got mercied by a guy who can't hit .200 with the best players in the game?

Yep i had12 good hits got punished for all of them 3 perfects straight to ss etc , he only had a single good hit but was getting bloops left right and centre, diamond fielders dropping balls, hit 5 no doubters where pci didnt even touch ball on very early timing , dudes sitting at 471 after winning with a 97 overal team with a 99 trout etc he didnt win cause he outhit me, he won because contact swinging doesnt matter where pci is just seems to give good contact even foul balls outside of both pci ranges , My highest rating this season is 812 so its not like im completely [censored]. The people who dont complain about contact is bad players who swing at every pitch with contact swinging, Ive seen top 10 players say how broken it is and ive seem many times it bail out bad players, There just isnt a skillgap with it being this broken.

Imagine getting mercy ruled by a zero good hit player , a player at 471 rating with full collections no pcis on the ball and if they were by 1 pixel theres a reason this guys .117 trout, .151 ortiz and .182 chipper , But contact swings just lets him him no doubters and singles on bad pci/timing swings seriously your a company make your product work like its supposed to.

new legend tim lincecum hopefully

I don’t know, Sanchez D is suspect, especially blocking, and that weird low contact vs Lefties could be problematic, plus the low speed. I still would take Huff over any of that, even if the swing blows (imho, it doesn’t).

Foxx is even worse on D at catcher. I don’t think he could throw my 90 yr old grandma out.

His defense is definitely iffy but Catcher seems like 1B almost where it really doesn't seem to make too much of a difference. I prefer a guy with atleast a strong arm (sanchez has that). The vs left contact is almost immaterial as well since it seems like most people don't even pay attention to splits and just want the same-handiness matchup.

Reverse splits are a blessing sometimes.

Yep cause someone pitching leftie all game your 0/3 with sanchez they have a relief pitcher in forget hes high contact vs righties and bang you hit a moonshot

Funny thing sanchez low contact vs lefties , I still hit 4 perfects out of 10 pitchs from a leftie its big enough even on hof if you can aim

for 1961 all-star card he has 77/85 power with 33 homeruns that year , While gary sanchez 2016 card has 115/121 power and he only hit 20 homeruns that year.

@savagesteve74 said in BEST TEAM AFFINITY 2 HIGH ?:

Huff from Texas is legit. He may replace JT for me, and trust me, that’s a tough decision. I was concerned about the lack of the catcher quirk, but had a few attempted steals that he threw out with ease.

Imho huffs swing kinda blows, that 89 sanchez has a great swing tho, So does jimmie foxx with catcher secondarys.

@asap_ray13_psn said in Ive just accepted i suck at hitting on hall of fame:

HOF feels like legend from last years game

All i know is if i square a ball of hof and good/good timing my ball is an out, but if oppenent gets a bad swing its a single or homerun lol

Slider at his knees way outside the zone he makes weak contact to SS with diamond defence who botches a routine groundout allowing him to equalise on last batter of the game. SDS stop allowing people to win with zero hits in a game.

I got myself up to 782 rating so every ranked game i play is on HoF right now, ive lost two games in a row where ive had 5 hits in 2 games 4 of them perfects for some reason lol But for the love of me i cannot adjust to hall of fame, On all-star i went on an 8 win streak, Ive stopped swinging at least at 50% of out of zone pitchs now taken me a while to just sit till 2 strikes then try to hit a ball in zone , While waiting on 2 strikes i sit and watch the pitchs and breaks but no matter how much i watch the pitcher i cannot read them at all or if i sit on a faster ball in top left zone (middle,left,top,top left so like a quarter if i notice them throw there alot) Especialy with 102 mph pitchs i feel like i swing soon as they throw the ball im still late , But its weird cause in practice i can hit on legend way better than i can hit in ranked games, Only thing i can think of is latency issues being from uk i think maybe the servers can't handle the distance for the connection.

I use hunter in RF cause his 96 fielding still diamond at RF dont feel hes fast enough for CF, But oswalt is pretty nice tbh too

@hikes83_psn said in Opponent scored on force out to end inning?:

That wasn’t a force play...

Doubling him off at first? That’s a force out. I played baseball for 20 years. You can’t score on that

He scored off the tag on the catch, Before you could make the double play to the guy who was already an active base runner

Julio Jones is gonna sign with the Cardinals. Book it, you heard it here first

He's got a killer swing, just struggles with balls in the dirt.

But seriously, Murray, Hopkins, Jones? Oh my god.

This is a baseball game bud, most of us think Joe Montana was a GM for the Padres.

He was a linebacker!

I said joe muntegna (hope you get the reference)

OP is ornery cause he ain't got no tooth brush

Mendula obla dirtballa

Yep i can't even make a bid for world series as im not a good hitter, When i do get a good hit its ridiculously punishing me while oppenent doesn't even get near the ball on pci and its a 3 run bomb i was winning 6-4 against a 820=+ rated guy yesterday when im 710 so would be decent points for the win but 6 run i got from 13 hits, i think i got punished on at least 6 hits when scorers were in positions

, But we made it 4-4 to extra innings , I hit a perfect flyball with maricio against his RHP for 2 run home run, We get to bottom of the 10th and i have him at outs with 1-2 count he swings in the dirt on a slider gets a weak contact with buxton who beats out my catcher throw to get 2 guys on base, Then at 3-2 count i throw a perfect fastball outside right in middle of the white line he swings middle with contact on a just early , Pci doesnt touch ball and it gives him the homerun with trout , Im at 750 rating right now but not a hope in hell i make it to 900 cause ill match a guy who smashs me all over the field using contact hitting , Or ill get 10 hits in a game and lose 4-3 to a guy who gets late hit singles with 5 hits all game and gets one lucky good homerun
