I'm all for being able to create a stadium and play on it but keep it out of Rank. There should be only real stadiums in rank and to be honest, I think it should only be MLB stadiums. If Polo Grounds wasn't bad enough, now we have fields that are little league size at some parts and created to have the ball travel further than it does at Laughing Mountain. I literally just played a guy who's field was so fake that I hit a 420 foot home run with Dee Strange-Gordon (86 overall). Which was just one of the 9 home runs hit within the first few innings between the 2 of us. It gives a game that is suppose to resemble Major League Baseball a really fake feel to it. And I don't mean a good Backyard Baseball for the PC feel, I mean a very bad mobile phone "tap the screen to swing now" feel. If you wanna play on a field that makes you feel like you can crush the ball, then play on it somewhere else. The game is limiting the players that we can use season to season, and they have killed the auction with so many non sellable cards. Its like they are purposesly taking the enjoyment out of the game. The Show definitely regressed this year. I still play it but the enjoyment from playing DD is not the same... End Rant.

The set idea has failed. It has just allowed SDS to be extremely lazy with the Affinity and program players. Another Joe Mauer and Pudge Rodriguez..... another Jorge Solar, Mike. Messina, Jim. Palmer, Jim Rice, and Randy Arozarena... another Eric Gage, another Bryce Harper, another Rob Dibble. Etc.... etc.... So many players that had great careers or are still playing and have good careers and yet.... the same players over and over.... can't wait for 2k to drop. The Show has been a let down

@txbizman_PSN said in How is a guy batting .251 a high diamond?:

Compare the hitting stats of Mookie (.251) to Yordan and tell me this game isn't about bias? Funny, when Verlander had a low ERA with the Astros, he was always an 85/86. Now, his highest ERA in years with the Mets and he's still a high diamond.

Bro.... I have been complaining about this for awhile. It's like some big named players who struggle get favoritism toward their overall such as Verlander, Byron Buxton, etc. Yet players like Marcus Stroman, D.J. Lemahieu and Luis Arraez will get dropped as soon as they aren't performing at a MVP, Triple Crown or Cy Young level. I mean Cody Belllinger stayed a silver for 2 seasons of awful hitting and finally puts together some solid hitting and instantly hits diamond along with a great program release. Josh Bell one the silver slugger last year, started off a gold and struggled a little early and was a bronze in an update. Now he's batting well over .300 since he's been a Marlin and.... oh, he's still a Bronze.... funny how that works.
