So what moron has Devers not move up at least one from 81. Should be easy Diamond. He has always been slow to get love from SDS. He is on pace for a 44 HR, 140 RBI season. In 2019 he had 201 hits. Hes a Doubles machine. His Clutch rating is currently 80. WTH. 70+ RBIs at mid point of season. And quit making him an idiot defensively. SDS continues to drop the ball with Devers. An Allstar with a 3 year track record of getting it done and having another great season. And yet he is stuck at 81. Morons

Walsh plays a solid RF when needed too. His BA against lefties is about .180 though. Definitely should have gone up 1 to Diamond

Much like Devers should be easy Diamond. On pace for 44 HR and 140 RBI and stuck at 81. Doubles machine who had 201 hits in 2019, so great track record too.

Wasnt that tough honestly. Use Power swing and start bat location low to elevate for HRs. If you need a SB, stop at 1B on a gapper. Stealing is easy. Just wait for move home and move stick right quickly. No need to anticipate. Just be quick. I hit a lot of HRs in this. Also hit quite a few with a 3-2 Count. So be patient.

My favorite is either major league or field of dreams, depending on whether I wanna laugh or I'm feeling sentimental lol. Unpopular opinion: Bull Durham is one of the worst movies I've ever seen, baseball or otherwise. I don't get how it always winds up on best of lists.

Well if you played minor league ball, it might hit home a little bit more. I was playing in the Carolina League the year it came out in 1988. Played many times at that exact ballpark. They had filmed summer scenes the winter before. Notice the cold air fog when guys would breathe. I believe it was released in May 1988 and the stands were packed once the movie came out. It was like a carnival there. Lots of fun. I loved the scene when the guys needed a night off so they flooded the field the night before. When I watch Bull Durham now, its like a time capsule back to 1988.

Idiots. 200k in stubs equates to $200 in real money. So yeah, if it happened to me, I would be ticked too. Give these people a break that had these issues. I havent had any issues that i have noticed personally, but im not ignorant enough to harp on those who have.

@SDwinder Did you play against the Winston-Salem Spirits?

For them. Never stayed overnight in Durham. Just a day trip from WS. Cool to see the exact unis in the movie.

Yeah they need to update his speed to 85.

@x-Alec_J-x said in Angels commit to wear masks and take precautions.:

Unless you are 65+ or have prior health issues, its no more fatal than the average flu. The sooner young healthy people....like pro athletes....get out and start living, the sooner we have complete herd immunity.

They are far more likely to get killed on the car on the way to the stadium than die from Covid-19. That doesnt stop them from playing.

Virtually everything you have heard about this virus is overblown or pure media driven panic porn lies.

They include positive anti body but asymptomatic patients -- meaning a person who is not sick -- in the positive test statistics.

The fans are even going to games again in Japan and Taiwan, without masks in many places.

If you are a young healthy person, you need to go out and live. There will never be a vaccine, and the more we delay natural herd immunity, the bigger than chance of a mutation or dangerous result from weakening our immune systems.

Dont sneeze in anyone's face, Wash your hands, be a responsible adult, and we will all be just fine.

Cancelling life will only make the suffering worse in the long term.

Another loser Trump Orangutan lemming. The man is a Psychopath and not fit for office. He is killing people with his lack of virus policies. Every word out of his mouth is a lie and the spin is only for re-election. The man is a disgrace and he will be kicked out of office in Nov.

Betts live card has plenty of power middle in. Very quick bat. Great D and can play 2B too. Same level card as Trout and Yelich in many ways.

Its supply and demand. SDS controls initial supply on new cards. If they hold back, demand overwhelms supply. SDS needs to not hold down supply on [censored] 60 cards.

Relievers are a different animal. Starting pitching is about Quality starts and Wins. Its about performance. There are NO excuses for not making a Starting Pitcher with a 19-3 record a Diamond card. Common sense 101

Wow, I sniff some Padre lickers doing the latest ratings update. He has one more start to get to 20 Wins. But even if he doesnt, Diamond upgrade is a no brainer.

I hit on Raoul Iglesias. Nice move up 3 to 82. Walsh and Devers should be 85 easy.
In case anyone didnt notice Ohtanis hitting stats got a nice jump. Still at 85 though.

Walsh plays a solid RF when needed too. His BA against lefties is about .180 though. Definitely should have gone up 1 to Diamond

Much like Devers should be easy Diamond. On pace for 44 HR and 140 RBI and stuck at 81. Doubles machine who had 201 hits in 2019, so great track record too.

And right about the time you think you know who the best players are, the nerf gods appear.

Rule of thumb. Do not lock in anything unless you absolutely know you do not need the flexibility to sell it going forward, giving up the potential for large market profits. This is how SDS gets you to spend more on stubs.

Yeah i had 2 routine plays on fly balls to the OF where the fielder would not control correctly and the ball dropped. One was Lofton. Very predetermined feeling. Playing in Simulation mode Allstar against AI. It was right after I hit a 2 run HR to take the lead. Felt like the comeback code was in hyperdrive.

Analog Pitching with Outfield view
Hitting strikezone 2.
Pinpoint is too mechanical/arcadish. If you have sticks that are not 100%, forget about it. Ive been using Analog since it was an option. As a former pro pitcher, its as good as it gets.
