You restart in name only. In terms of stats and progression - you can't change anything. It's like "My Little Pony Dress Up" game.
If you want to go from a slow moving slugger who plays first base or DH
To a fleet footed gap finding base stealing defensive monster.
Change your cards and swap your sunglasses, bat and hat between games. You know - like a small child's first dress up game on their Nintendo handheld.
You don't progress. You choose the right outfit. How the mighty have fallen.

Road to the Show Card Battling Rogue Like
Turning your base stealing, tip and run speedster
Into a hulking, slow homer hitting plodderBy swapping out some cards, choosing a different bat and changing your sunglasses?
That's not just immersion breaking. That's taking immersion outside and spending half an hour battering it with a diamond tipped jack hammer until no-one could recognise it was immersion in the first place.
That's MLB "Sims dress up room"
Hard to believe any developer that understands their fan base would have done this to their own game.
Unless it is for the money of course... -
Not saying you are lying. I believe you.
I'm saying that maybe a player shouldn't have to perform super-human feats like 150-200 homers and batting over 800 to get called up.
TBH - and i mean this sincerely. Out matching the game like that would totally ruin the RPG ness of RTTS for me. I play to be good, part of the team, feel as if my contribution helps.
Part of the machine - not the whole machine
Not a baseball god who can carry a team to the pennant on their own back every season. I would certainly get bored of overmatching the Ai by so much. So I believe you completely. But that being the case - that just strikes me as a badly balanced game.
Yes batting 800 and you'll swing to the Majors. But who wants to do that in a sim? Overbalance the game.
in 2020 I got to hall of fame at 45 YO and was gutted with .398 I spent years batting at .400 and that was my target. Failed in the last season. -

Did you expect the player to be a 99 at the start. It's a grind but when the game works properly, it doesn't take long at all. My guy is 100 plus in every hitting category like contact, power and vision with a 80 plus fielding and 65 speed. That was before the game officially launched and I got to earn the stuff that I was doing.
Once it comes back, it'll go quickly to rank him up
I play this game every year,... the progression is SO SLOW this year,... it’s not starting low. It’s overall going from 30 to 31 after a full season. I’ve not experienced a sports game that starts you this low and progresses this slowly
No idea how you got 100 overalls when the caps are set at 50
And honestly after taking everyone’s careers away we’ve all been working on for years,... yeah, I’d expect them to make it easier to get your player leveled up
Caps are at 50s yes. The perks and loadout pkus equipment gets you higher. Getting the player to the 50 cap is simple, almost everything I have is there now, just power is a couple away and I didn't even finish the whole first season.
@rabid55wolverine.
I've no idea how you did that. I'm in my third year. Absolutely raking it in AAA for almost 2 years straight now.
Batting close to .380, league leader in homers (though it won't show me as league leader - because the AI only plays me in 50% of the games so I never qualify) The only time my manager called me in was to give me a rocket for failing on two steals in the same game and taking my green light away.Defensively I'm about the same as every other player.
I'm now in AAA and have about 30 hours in the game. Not even got a sniff of getting to the majors yet.
I've played all versions of MLBTS other than 2017 since it started. Including the Vita versions so I'm comparing to progress speed on other years not to progress speed in different games.IF you are batting almost .850 and have 140 homers in less a season - we are at every different ends of either the skill settings or the actual ability settings. I'd struggle to do that on the easiest game mode. On All Star .400 is about my best. And batting 400 on All Star for 30 hours - this is where I am.
Though I am very glad I don't find the game as easy as you. I'd stop playing out of boredom if I did.
Yawwwnnn Another hit.
Yaawwwnnn Another homer.
Ho hum -

In third year of playing CF. Hitting .380+ with an OBP of well over 400. More home runs than the next two players in my team combined.
Still in AAA.
Might have to play some Diamond Dynasty (which I find as boring as watching paint dry) to get some better cards and gear. I think it's my overall rating that is holding me back not my playing stats.
For some reason my manager rests me every other game. it's not a platoon situation. Righty for righty.
The guy he replaces me with hits about .225 and has 3 home runs for the season to date (compared to my 25+).and has an inferior defensive record. He does have a much higher durability. I'm still at base level and he s on about 44. But man - attribute increases are SOOOO SLOOOW I've only been training those that actually improve my stats the most.
Played MLBTS since PS2. Enjoyed most iterations though RTTS on Vita used to crash and was never fixed.
But beside those poorly coded Vita versions - I've enjoyed every game. But getting really cheesed-off with the game this year. As an RTTS only player It is not fun at all
Is there a way to restart rtts player?
Let’s take a minute to analyze RTS.
