It’s just stale and boring to me at this point.
I grinded a lot for season 1 rewards and have a solid group of cards but I am unmotivated to grind this season 2 stuff.
I strictly only enjoy playing online win or lose. But now I feel forced to have to waste hours playing the cpu on rookie which is extremely boring because apparently in a few weeks these season 1 cards won’t be allowed online.

At the end of the day a moment where you have to hit a home run is the same over and over again whether you change the pitcher and hitter. It’s repetitive and boring. Even the showdowns are stale. I used to read the captions but now it’s obviously just score a run or more runs then the cpu.

Why do I have to be forced to grind this [censored] if I don’t want to? Then I have to buy cards on the market which is a losing method because cards decline in price drastically.

It’s 100% a home run derby game. I constantly play games where all runs scored are via home run

So I’m playing an event game against some who’s pretty awful. Of course all I’m facing is 102mph fastballs which is ridiculously hard to hit but get a few well hit balls and of course they just lead to outs..
anyways we get to extras and all this clown is trying to do is bunt cause he can’t hit at all and in ran into multiple double plays being dumb.
Then of course I know he’s going to try and bunt again so I throw a change up in the dirt because anything else is an automatic bunt online even with horrible bunters and what do you know he bunts the ball that’s in the dirt and wins the game..

Ya from well timed hits to always leading to outs and seemingly only being rewarded if you suck and are late on everything to dumb [censored] like this and facing 102mph fastballs all game I think I’m done.

Deleted the game after this stupid [censored]. I hadn’t played the show in a few years and figured I’d give it another shot but this game just purely sucks.

Lol of course 99 fastball up and in against kwan and this guy goes opposite field soft single on a very late swing… but good squared up pitches go directly at outfielders constantly… ya I’m officially done with this game. What a wast of time this game is.. good luck to anybody that actually finds a broken game fun.

What is it? I tried once and had no idea what I was doing..

I just find it hilarious my opponent can’t hit a beach all but then pushes pause and now any pitch anywhere in the zone is absolutely crushed..

This game is a joke.

Wow people have way too much time on their hands if they already have all these cards I’m seeing online… wish I could sit on my [censored] all day and play a video game.. dude had all the 97s from the affinity program already LOL… get a life pals. Jesus how can people play the cpu on rookie all day? Weird..

Previous years I could destroy people online but all of a sudden this years game I can’t throw a pitch in the zone without giving up home runs… interesting. Doing the same stuff but different results.. wonder what made them want to change the game and cater to bums…

I’ve got about 200k stubs from selling pulls I’ve had and playing the game.. what’s the best approach to finishing all the collections? I’ve done the rough math and wouldn’t it take like a million stubs to finish all the collections?

Save up for the high value golds first is what I do (Until I botch the math and realize I won't have enough to buy all the cards and end up a degrom short)

Ya I mean some of these diamonds are 100k stubs or more so I’m not sure how it’s even possible for me to collect all these cards without at least a million stubs. Just curious how people are able to do this. Definitely not about to purchase stubs just cause I’m against micro transactions. Not concerned if I can’t complete these just curious how people do it

I’m enjoying grinding the programs for now. Played 8 ranked games went 6-2 but then ran into super stacked teams.. my fear is once I get back online I’ll be facing 99 billy Wagner and 99 josh hader every game.. that’s gonna kinda stink

I was having a lot of trouble completing these at first but have been completing them now. Some tips I can say is the failures actually help you get used to the pitchers you’ll see and that’s a big help. Bunt runners over every time to stay out of double plays. Helps a lot

Thanks bro you da man

This stuff is just dumb… bums online just bunting and no matter where the pitch is and whoever they use it’s automatic bunts every time and it’s beyond dumb.

My awful opponent bunts the runner from 2nd in extras and keeps running and scores… 0-2 count ball way outside and of course it’s an automatic successful bunt. I immediately quite because if bums online have to resort to abusing this broken game then go ahead have the win since you’re probably overweight and work at target. Probably the highlight of his week

Please fix this garbage broken game. You’ve already lost me as a customer because I’m never buying this game ever again in my life but can you at least attempt to fix obvious broken parts of your trash game?

Not sure if this is just an issue on the switch but when I place a pitch in a certain direction with good release the pitch will float in weird fashion then end up no where near where I was placing it..

Pitcher isn’t tired. Release is green and the pitch will float in slow motion up and down then end up in a completely random location.

Example I wanted to throw a splitter low outside the zone where I knew my opponent was gonna swing and miss but the teleporting glitch happened and the ball ended up top in the zone.

Sometimes it’ll go a few pitches like this and makes it extremely hard to pitch when I’m locating the pitch and it for whatever reason starts glitching.

Also bunting is still broken and way too automatic.
Had a dude 0-2 and the pitch was way low outside the zone and somehow he was able to bunt it with a guy who has 10 bunting rating..

This game is underwhelming. Never played a more broken version of mlb the show. I mean mlb home run derby 2023

Don’t you need a ton of season 2 cards for this card? Jesus Christ how in the world is it even possible to have that card already…

The grinding seems so pointless but for some reason I find myself wanting to get these cards that I’ll probably never use.

Like this new incognito program.. probably never going to use that 97 belt in my main online lineup since that 99 big papi will eventually be obtainable.

Only reason I’m trying to complete it is for collections I guess?

I honestly don’t even play ranked as much anymore. I’ve just been playing event games.. the 3 innings and requirements is enjoyable.

Can’t even imagine what ranked is like right now with all these 99 cards.

Guarantee the first game I play ranked I’ll face a person with every 99 possible. Screw that
