Be careful what you ask for... They may interpret as, "Program stars are too easy to come by... maybe we should make them harder to attain."
If you get bored, jump on some other way to grind out XP. Or read a book, watch a movie.
@FranklinSabers16 said in 99 Maddux is the best pitcher in the game:
I pray him and Rollins fill the role I need them too, both are endgame if they are as good as they look
I pray posts like this disappear so their prices will drop lol

I haven’t bunted first a hit since 2015. I will never bunt for a hit regardless of any game situation. But yeah I hear you loud and clear.....my dude.
Jake Taylor hasn’t bunted since 1989.
That’s great, man! My 10 silvers are happy you’re still married.
@AsianJim95 said in Am I wrong for this?:
Getting shut out in the 8th, Tatis hits a solo jack. Down 2-1. He brings crochet in, Jorge walks, and then Gary walks. So two on with no outs and honus comes up to bat, get in a two strike count. And I laid my first bunt down of the year (felt dirty about it) but couldn't sacrifice a double play. Got on, brought in nick for Larry, then hit a grand slam causing him to dashboard.
I hate bunt cheesers, but am I wrong for putting a bunt down in a critical situation?
Not wrong at all. And don’t let anyone tell you any differently.
For clarification, let's define terms. There are two in particular: Legends and Flashbacks
Flashbacks are only available to cards that are in the Live Series collections... Like Free Agents, or anyone on a current MLB Roster.
Legends are those cards of players who are retired.
Trust me, there are tons of legends people are going to suggest that I would love to see. But I just wanted to help the OP out, because that's usually the direction these types of threads head towards.
The Ruth program is basically like conquest. The amount of games seem insurmountable at first, but after it occurred to me that it’s basically like conquest, doesn’t seem too awful.
“This is the guy that sidelined Jimmy....” https://youtu.be/Apa0nG1OfUc
They patched it, but when they referred to switch hitters. I think it went something like this.... “he’s definitely no Chipper Jones”.... while Chipper was batting.

@Rubbaneck34_XBL said in April Topps Now Program stars count error:
So I just noticed I currently have 94 stars in the April Topps Now program but its only showing its up to 86 (Jordan Diaz) card. I don't quite understand this but is this a glitch? I have a pic to prove.Anyone else experiencing this?
Thanks
Yeah I’m about 4 or 6 stars difference between my actual progress and how many I’ve been awarded.
I got an around the world choice pack from the Ranked Seasons program. Pulled and picked Trout.
My last wheel spin, I got another around the world choice pack. It ghosted.
I submitted a ticket. Has anyone gotten anything rectified yet?
I’m with a lot of people on here. I sold my WBC guys to complete a couple of collections. Pulling Ohtani alone out of a chase pack finished the AL west for me.
No TA progress? No thanks!
I saw a video recommended on YouTube about previous versions of the Show.
So I’m left a little curious about the Cover Athlete Captain’s boost from David Wright.
Does it include these dudes from the MLB series 989 Studios produced (the predecessor to SDS)?
Cal Ripken Jr (99)
Chipper Jones (01)
Shawn Green (04)
Vlad Sr (06)
Furthermore… Canada, Korea, and Taiwan had their cover athletes also. Stroman (19)? What if we got a Jose Bautista?
Just wondering.

My son has the S, and he doesn't have Stadium Creator, so there is definitely a difference between the S and X consoles.
Seriously? That blows

Looking at Black Friday deals, it looks like Sams and Costco both are going to have a pretty good deal on an Xbox series S.
Well, I’m still using my PS4. But it looks like the new NCAA game will be next Gen only, so it’s looking like it’s time to move on.
Anyways… I’m only going to play 1 or 2 games (when ncaa comes out). I’ll usually bang out the programs at the beginning and over the summer before high school football really begins to ruin my schedule.
Just confirming, you do have to have game pass or Xbox live for Diamond Dynasty, correct? Is it worth it over the long run to renew game pass or live versus just getting a PS5?
Help me weigh out my odds to see about buying a series S or just shelling out the money for a PS5.
Thanks,
Yes need xbox live or gamepass, gamepass is 150% worth the money if you want to play this game and have the option to play about 150 others. I usually own every console, but I won’t go back to Sony after getting gamepass.
In your opinion, with the type of gamer I am, would there be enough of a discrepancy between a series S or X?

@arvay83_xbl said in Trout help:
So I want to buy trout to finish the live series. Anyone have any thoughts if his price will keep dropping or has it bottomed out? I will wait if it continues to dip. Thanks
Double XP and stub sale… I would buy now if you think he’s low enough. Isn’t that usually when live series 90+ Get a little more expensive?
Who knows… maybe he’ll drop since he had a drop in attributes.

I know that this is going to appear to some as just another Phillies rant, but I 100% agree with you on questioning their roster updates. Through the entire month of June Kyle Schwarber was one of the best players in baseball and went from a 75 to... a 76 lmao. There are just some players that they love and some that they don't. Look at how long Sandy Alcantara has taken to reach his deserved diamond status
And he was in the monthly awards, So was Yordan and he gets a -1 lol
In their defense in July so far Alvarez is batting .226 and only .125 in the last week and he lost some contact numbers because of it.
There are plenty of questionable upgrades and downgrades for sure, I mean Harrison Bader was downgraded by 2 points and he has not played since June 25th.
To a certain extent we kind of brought this on ourselves. Everybody wants their favorite player upgraded when they have been hot for only a few weeks but then nobody wants them downgraded when the reverse is true.
I am as guilty of it as anyone else. Rooting for updates for my favorite players but at this stage, even my Cardinals theme team only uses 2 live series position players (Goldschmidt and Molina). Live series cards are almost obsolete at this point anyway. Is anyone who cares that much about Alvarez using the Live series card over the POTM card?
This, this and more this
"Omg this player hit 4 home runs this week, when he is he going diamond"
"Omg this player hit .156 this week, why was he downgraded so much"!
I also think people just take it to personally in general, as if SDS is saying Yordan is trash by giving him a -1
Oh and also, people just don't generally look at what stats actually matter in upgrades.
"This guy has a 2.45 ERA"! -Cool, but like, where is the ERA stat that SDS upgrades?
Michael Harris at one point was 4th in WAR during the time period between his debut and 5 days ago behind Goldschmidt, Dansby, and Arenado…
Dansby should have gotten more than a +1
Harris’s arm strength is at a 65 and his fielding is a 50-something and a 73 overall… or is it the next update when they upgrade/downgrade defensive attributes? Dude has been on a tear too.
Michael Harris still a 73 beats the [censored] out of me.
Dansby should have gotten more love, too. Only an 81.
