And bunting too…no real professional baseball players bunt.

And it’s actually illegal in college baseball….and I know because I played!!!

Hitting HRs against me at shippet….I chose that stadium for me to hit dingers, not you!!

This card + mission can both burn.

Please, submit your god pham puns if you understand my pain.

@theu715 said in Majority of The Show's Hitting Approach:

No, the worst is actually when you get up 2 strikes. Dot your pitch on the black 3 times and get check swings that obviously fooled your opponent and they're all called balls. Then they foul off a couple until they draw a walk or get a blooper and then hit a HR with the next batter on a pitch away that they pull for a no doubt HR. Follow it up the next inning when you're hitting and get a perfect/perfect fly out to the warning track with Soto or Griffey.

Stop reading my game history!!!

SDS did a great job, Mickey Mantle is exactly how I remember him in 1958

I remember watching Honus….it was black and white in the stadium too.

@x814xMafia said in Would you rather have....:

Finest Bellinger

or

Finest Perez, Soto, AND DeGrom

????

Trick question.....the answer is to have all of them.

Only one good thing I’ve pulled recently and I can’t detail that on this forum.

@irishfist412_xbl said in The Show/Madden Debate:

I’m seeing alot of people post stuff either bashing Madden or bashing The Show and then people just argue pointlessly about it…Why can’t people just enjoy both? I love playing the show & it’s definitely my favorite game but I also enjoy Madden quite a bit also. Baseball & Football are both great sports, What is wrong with enjoying both of them on a console? Relax & just have fun playing whatever you want people & don’t worry about what other people play.

Because my thing is right and I want everyone to know it and anyone that doesn’t agree is stupid and wrong.

Is there glitch for people that attempt to friendly quit? Now I know people will send a friendly quit when they are losing, but sometimes I've noticed that I'll be seeing the ball well one second and once I decline a friend quit mid or late game I won't see the ball as well

Conspiracy theories abound here endorse the notion that declining a friendly quit provides a strategic + coded advantage to your opponent who will subsequently prevail over your valiant efforts the rest of any given game.

My own statistical analysis has concluded that 60% of the time it works every time.

If you strike out 20+ every game you’re looking at 20-25 games approx

This is simply not true….I’ve done this many times over and not ONE of my batters has made it to P5 in 20-25 games.

Fake news!!!

This thread is about starting pitching, not batters. I don't think anyone is claiming you can P0 to P5 a batter in 20-25 games.

Attempted humor….just the out of context description of “if you strikeout 20-25 times in a game”. Humorous to me to envision being terrible enough as a batter to do that.

Chuck likes something else hard

Ha ha, chuck likes algebra!!! Why don’t you go join the math team, nerd!!!!

I’ve got 3.8 now, only missing 23 player cards (3 golds, other high value/low diamond card), bought all jerseys last week and all equipment the week before.

Figure I’ll buy the event rewards, run through BR again then go dabble in ranked some more.

Love baseball so it’s hard to put the game down for me.

@guccigangchuck said in Unpopular Opinion for 22:

Unpopular opinion, cumulative win rewards and making everything so obtainable this year kind of devalues the point of grinding ranked to get better. If you get 30 wins, you should get the reward after the season is over and make it non sellable, compared to if you make WS by hitting 900 you get the pack instantly and have the option to sell. Lets get rid of the tanking, i will even admit i've tanked at times this year.

I’ll counter point you here:

The value of “grinding ranked to get better” is solely dependent on the person. If said person wants to get better at ranked, they would play a lot and set goals other than “get 30 wins”. Obviously there is the camp of “get 30 wins, get the reward” but I’m not sure that’s necessarily a bad thing. I play more BR and events than ranked, so having the alternate path in BR has made than significantly more enjoyable.

comparing last year to this, I’m not sure I saw major variances in value of rewards themselves. BR and Ranked were still the most expensive.

@bhall09_psn said in Parallel climb:

Man, that climb from P4 to P5 is no joke.

I use a lot of different lineups and cards throughout the year, so I don’t have any P5s yet. Closest on deGrom and Chipper. But, man, it takes a while. I’ve got deGrom, Chipper, Jackie, Betts, Aaron, Mantle and now Piazza to P4. Think might change my lineups now to see how many P4s I can get before I’m done. (Not that the plus-1 rating means much, more a badge of honor).

Online definitely makes this go faster. I remember when I first picked up the awards bellinger; there were 1 or two events he was used in immediately after, and it’s the fastest card I’ve gotten to P5. Think it was +/- 525.

Biding my time offline throughout the week now and I’ve taken to a new approach:
Bad cards (for me) - P1 then change
Good cards - P3 then change
Great cards - P4 then change

I mean he’s calm enough to type [censored] in lieu of using any vulgarities. Quite considerate on the forum where obscenities like that would be quite upsetting to some.

I say good [censored] job you [censored] mother [censored]. And happy [censored] new year you [censored] animals!!

I don’t dashboard every time, but when I do, the game is finished.
