Stock the lineup with all 99 switch hitters and DQ is less spooky than previously.

^this. I've been doing this all year to farm stubs, working great, usually switch between the DQ maps to make usually 80+k for the runs (only takes an hour/run).

Yes, they need to do something to make Chase and Headliners more obtainable. I have several Headliner cards just because I occasionally grind the HoF miniseason with 2B xp, rinse and repeat, but that is it.

Last collection has to be Chipper, right?

Hello all, I just wanted to throw out (and crowdsource) some ideas I had regarding making the game increasingly player friendly and approachable for the offline community, for the rest of the year.

1. Full USA map conquest, with updated reward pool, including headliner choice packs for both American and National league completions, and a Chase choice pack for entire map completion. Could add basic Deluxe packs and possibly inning and old event rewards as division series collections as well. All rewards repeatable.

2. Bring back the Run-It-Back mini-season from last years cycle, with again, updated rewards including repeatable headliner and Chase choice packs, basic Deluxe choice packs as well.

3. Expanded Diamond Quest with increased, multiple stadium bosses, with updated rewards (can do HL, Chase, but want to find a way to supplement weekend classic rewards rewards to make more obtainable).

What do you think would be a positive thing to keep the game going in the right direction for the remainder of the game cycle?

Been smashing so far with Hernandez, Riley, and Harris II.

Enrique Hernandez is always a monster, every year gets weirdly OP card.

Usually terrible, has one of the most readable motions in the game.

Rogers Hornsby

Got to be Chipper, Mantle, or Posada; they just keep going with power switch hitters for near every meta collection card (i.e. Rutschman, Made, V Martinez, Beltran, J Ramirez, K Marte, and yes, Mantle already).

Agreed with Dolenz, certain players (take Dustin Pedroia for example), who arguably had a better season in 2011 than his 2008 campaign, could legitimately have cards with 110+ contact, 100+ power, 85+ speed, 90+ defense. All depends on the timeframe they cover. Ozzie was a menace for that card series. Would love to have Arozarena 2020 playoffs card

yawn SS is hot right now too.

Ty Cobb and Rogers Hornsby used to have GOD cards; please bring back

Mike Lowell has a non-developed (no picture, no series) card for one team in a mini-seasons. Weird stuff.

Please just give us the repeatable draft map from last year. Do something that benefits the casuals.

This year's iteration marks the least I can remember playing since I started playing The Show. It's just not rewarding enough this year. That combined with outrageous marked pricing for Judge/Ohtani, makes me just want to play other games with spare time.

Don't agree with OP at all, been playing more since the all-star break release of 99s.

Al Kaline has a 99; wouldn't mind seeing some very classic players make appearances/combacks in the form of:

-Tris Speaker
-Walter Johnson
-Ty Cobb
-Rogers Hornsby
-Jimmie Foxx
-Nap Lajoie
-Christy Matthewson
-Roy Campanella
-Yogi Berra
-Yaz
-Reggie Jackson
-Frank Robinson

I've historically run that map about 50 times, pulled at least 5 of him, multiple other high draft picks. For me, that map worth the most per time, but I also hate DQ.

Recently been loving Satchell Paige, and Sandy Alcantara.

@Dolenz_PSN
Yay. I get to use Jeimer Candelario (said no one ever)!

His swing is fire; I'll use him. But yes, DQ (not Dairy Queen) sux.
