I don’t think he’ll be leaving my 1B spot for a long time, if ever.

@EvylShaun said in Stan vs Papi:
Ruth is roughly an 8 hour grind. If you're 25% of the way that's 6 hours remaining. I'd strongly recommend spending 1-2 hours a day working towards Ruth, and using him in 3-6 days.
I’d recommend this as well. Once you get Ruth, you’ll most likely stick him at 1st and never look back. Save the stubs to buy another player and hang in with Fred until you get the Bambino. Trust me, he’s beyond worth it.
Not sure about the answer to this, but I can tell you that I did make the switch from my tv to a monitor last week. And I can’t believe how big a difference it is
Idk, I’ll take a W and the prestige stats if it means my starter getting drained from only pitching 3 innings. Makes us have to build a complete rotation and have a good bullpen unlike prior to this update.
I just finished the collection a week and a half ago. Whenever you have the stubs available and cards/equipment you can sell to get over the hump, just go for it. Especially now with weekly updates things can change quickly
I also made WS for the first time earlier this evening. It was a good run to pull it off. Went with Ricky, curious to see how he does. It was a good feeling getting that last out.
Ruth hands down. He won’t be leaving my lineup for the rest of the year.
This is my first year playing DD and when I first started playing RS, I was on my TV and hitting was a nightmare. I then found game mode and it made a difference. I then decided to try out a monitor as I wanted to try to be more competitive and it was even better than game mode (at least on my TV).
I was probably batting like .210 before the monitor and now the average is up to around .268-.270 (in RS). Finally made WS for the first time last season. It doesn’t help you make better swings necessarily or make up for swinging at everything, but it does make things easier if your patient and makes fastballs nothing to worry about.
Andre Dawson. Great swing, and elite defense in center.

There are plenty of perfectly hit baseballs in the MLB that go for outs, especially liners. I also get frustrated when a P-P ends up being an out, but generally speaking I end up catching an equal amount of breaks on the other side that makes it all even out. Plus one or two swings shouldn’t be the end all be all in the game anyway.
He’s easily my best lefty in the pen, and that includes SS Chapman. Usually play on HoF and legend.
Give it some time. When I first got him, I was struggling as well and was down around 200 (play mostly RS on HoF and legend). I’m now up to 330 or so and he’s easily one of my best hitters. Just took a little time getting used to him.
I have him and he’s easily the best catcher I’ve used. I generally play RS on HoF and Legend, and he hits great and with pop. And his defense speaks for itself. Definitely can’t go wrong.
You mentioned it in your post, but you really just have to wait for the mistake pitch and not miss your chance. They’ll usually give you at least 1 per at bat.
I’m probably in the minority, but I absolutely love Ricky. Hes one of my best hitters and despite his power, hits a lot of HRs.
While all the gameplay aspects you mentioned are annoying and I do get frustrated when they occur, I benefit from the same thing happening to my opponent roughly the same amount. I just take it in stride and try my best to not let it bother me.
Though a perfect-perfect line drive I had with POTM Tatis last night against a righty that went right to the CF was tough lol
I just put him in for prestiged Torre at the beginning of last week when I got the 300 starts and I’m a fan so far. Definitely has a bit more pop than his stats suggest
Currently have Pudge at C (previously had prestiged Torre) and then a combo of Castellanos and prestiged Chipper at 3rd (Sheffield on the bench)
