@wingspan1985_PSN said in Is there going to be a stream today for the new program?:

I haven't seen any mention of one on the site or Twitter. I'm just curious I guess.

Nope, they be watching the Postseason like use

Yeah 1-4 on Chase, and Fried has been killing my diamond prospects. I got like 4 of him so far I think.

That ballin out of control pack gave me Fried, but also gave me JRam too. Only have like 3 good pulls all year

I’ve got the Brewers, Guardians, Mets, and Angels left to complete the live collection…I’ve never pulled Trout in any of the games…so hopefully I can make some stubs to help get me there…but it’s not looking to good with the less than stellar pulls lol

My debut with Ryan went pretty well. 7 innings, 21 strikeouts. My opponent quit after the bottom of the 7th. I did give up 1 run on 2 hits, my opponent wasn't touching Ryan but I must have hung a couple of pitches as he hit back-to-back doubles. After that, they went back to swinging and missing.

We were both in the 500s, so it isn't that impressive. It was only a 2-1 game when they quit, I was hoping they'd stick around as I wanted 27 strikeouts.

@savefarris_psn said in Do you guys think we will see ASG Choice packs?:

Even if a card is part of the new program, there's still a chance he'll be in the HRD/ASG packs (Hello, Salvador Perez!!).

That said, unless Judge wins ASGMVP, I doubt they'd pack him.

Yeah, we had a few of those. Realmuto had a game card and program card and Ohtani was the collection reward as well as HRD. Perez like you said and maybe Matt Olsen too?

I wish he was a reliever though.

I have him, Langeliers is the catcher you're looking for.

@wingspan1985_psn said in My rotation is in shambles:

Right now my rotation is

Halladay
Glavine
Maddux
Weaver
Keuchel

I trust Glavine and Keuchel, and Weaver to an extent. Just had a long losing streak, but got the win last night with Keuchel tossing 7 shutout innings before my opponent quit. I don't think I can rely on Maddux or Halladay.

I bought a few pitchers today, Robbie Ray, David Price, and Carlos Carrasco. Has anyone had any luck with the three guys I picked up? Ray intrigues me as his price is still somewhat high for an HL card and he has a decent pitch mix.

This is on AS difficulty, but my pitching has always kept me in games, lately not so much.

I faced Ray on HOF and he was tough. Opponent kept spamming the slider mid away. Gonna pick him up just for that reason

The Face of the Franchise C.J. Cron card is really good. I also use the 91 Adley Rutschman at first quite a bit with usually Mike Piazza catching, as both can also play 1st.

His live series card has better stats doesn’t it?

I'm not sure about that, and I'm away from home until Monday, or I'd look

@irishfist412_xbl said in J.R. Richard:

I faced him on HOF today & destroyed him. Ball is so easy to pick up out of his hand. Trash card.

Thanks for the info. I guess I'll sell him and pick up Kershaw.

Just Randy and Keuchel. Will be adding Glavine when his price drops a bit.

Richard doesn’t haven’t enough speed differential IMO. Good players will light him up.

Yes his LS card was good for me at release before I upgraded

Anyone have any input on how well the switch does in ranked seasons? Can you compete? I also have the series X and have played DD on all the platforms over the years. I bought the switch for when I travel for work and am curious if playing ranked, if the system can compete lag wise, both fps and input lag, or if I’ll be sticking to offline grinding. I bought the pro controller as well. Also, follow question, in the docked mode is there any input lag difference vs the handheld mode?

Thanks

@pucksh_psn said in Kluber, Arrieta or Hershiser?:

If you play most of your games on all star level, i think kluber is the best out of those 3. HOF or higher, Arrieta is the move

I was wondering about that. Being an AS player, I figured Kluber's velocity would play better there, and the slurve throws off a lot of people. Picked Kluber up for 400k just a few minutes ago.

I'm honestly not that great with him. I can hit bombs with him, but I also line out with him a ton. Even when I'm patient and wait for cookies to be thrown to me. Offline, anyway. I was going to superfractor him just because, but with all the good cards that have dropped since I've got him, I don't think I'm going to bother.

I finished the LS in June so hadn’t been paying much attention to it. Turns out I had pulled three Petrickas along the way and had them collecting dust. A few people are a bit happier now…

@wingspan1985_psn said in Anyone use SS Strasburg?:

I'm curious as his price has remained around 70k, which seems kinda high for an HL card. Has anyone had any luck using him online? I'm trying to get back to playing some RS, and am not sure if Oswalt is still viable.

Excellent pitcher with nasty stuff. Worth it IMO.

I, just like many others in my state, was watching the Bucks win a championship for the first time in my lifetime.

Thanks, everyone, picked up Leiter, will be a few days before I can test him out online but sounds like he's the truth.
