Its absolute torture we have MLB this year and nobody can go

That sucks

I am really hopeful next year if fans are allow to attend that the Jays do a weekend series in Bufflo as a Thank You

I have said it for awhile now. Im sure there are standards and such... but Toronto, should play 1 series a season in Buffalo. It would sell out very quick and it would seed a niche fanbase here (where many people inexplicably are Yankees fans). Its a nice little spectacle too. They could get 20,000 here for each game of a 3 game series. That is better than I have seen in the Rogers Centre many a time.

I kind of struggle with some hitting moments, but unbelievable I passed the Smith one on the first shot.

I bought a player today to bypass the 2 games on all-star. All I need to do is the Gallo moment

RavenOU812

any timed missions?

someday I will succeed at one

Ahhhh power swings! Thanks! I never think to use that.

I agree that Granderson seems strange. I cruised through all the single game stuff. I have had this one sitting on my backlog forever and have completed player programs that seem much more difficult.

I have grinded many of these out. Being an offline player, this is a large piece of my content. There are a few I seem to be stuck on and wondering if anyone has the same experience and can lend any tips:

1st - Blue Jays Stage 1 - Guerrero - 2HRs. I think it is labelled as Veteran. Guerrero only has like 76 power vs Lefties. It is facing Snell who seems to only feed me nonsense pitches and anything in the strike zone is in the bottom quartile.

1st inning Program - Granderson. Pretty much any of the multi-game moments. They are labelled as Rookie. I can mash rookie, but I cannot get anything going at all in these. One of them starts off against Otani and he doesnt give much to work with. Furthermore, they call for RBIs and 90% of the time it puts me up to bat with a desert on the bases.

Yasmandi Grandal - 2XBH. This guy is as slow as molasses. Worse-yet, a few times I hit balls off the wall and the slug defaulted into a homerun trot until the ball hit the wall. grrrrr

1419 but I started late

I find the pitching ones to be very easy. Some of the hitting ones get me good, especially multiple XBH ones or tons of total bases.

I like Degrom as a nasty late rotation guy. Also for some reason I really like Hader

I havent been playing online, and started late. I believe I can complete almost everything outside the Red Prestige Diamond upgrades which are online-only.

Flip cards if you can. Learn how to use the auction house to make stubs, and also get cards for exchanges. Exchanges are the great short cut for many things in this mode

Moments can be frustrating, but stick with it. I always try to get a really good outcome with the first At-Bat or I quit and restart quick. I find sometimes I get on a roll and pass like 4 moments in a row. At times it feels like I cant get anything done. Look up 'dashboarding' for the multi-game moments.

The conquests are great ways to build up a lot of the offline stat requirements as well as the Daily program missions. Great rewards too.

As far as "Beat team X".... you need to do it in Diamond Dynasty under the Extended Play box and play vs CPU in a 9-inning game. It gets easier as you unlock good cards and you get better.

IMO quantity of sales are superior to quality.

I dont want to get stuck with 100 of a card that is going to dip in the next day.... but Im not holding cards hoping they go up. Just sell that and buy the next ones to sell. JMO.

I am/was disappointed, but it isnt a deal-breaker for me. There are plenty of cool cards to use from the eras that I like. Plenty to do in the game.

Diamondbacks have a double-down too I believe

I really like the concept of showdown and dont mind a challenge, really.... within reason.

I have yet to complete a showdown though. I have a handful of attempts with the AL Central Phase 1, as well as an attempt with Inning 1.

Its just such a major time investment for little benefit and it is VERY unforgiving. I would really love to do these more and more. It is just frustrating and would eat time.

I would like to see it tweaked a little.

Perhaps offer the ability to earn or buy a "continue". Purchase with 500 stubs, or maybe it would cost you a Silver player or something.

underwhelmed

Are they having a stream or reveal or anything?

My gut says Babe Ruth.... but thinking about it, having a Yankee as the main collection reward and a Yankee as the main live collection reward is redundant.

I would love Ty Cobb. But I think the player is going to have some semblance of power, which eliminated the dead-ball era.

I think they stay away from the steroid era for some reason

Which brings me to my final guess: Frank Robinson.

I really like the concept of showdown, but in execution it needs some tweaking IMO. The moments need to be kept short and sweet. Maybe having some way of earning a "continue" or 2 would be great as well to add to the old video game vibe of having 'bosses'. Maybe even give 1 "re-do" of a mission each round.
