Stats - Misnomer for player attributes. “Check out his stats, he’s got 115 vision!”

Glitch - Name incorrectly given to a good player. “Mike Trout is a glitch! Who knew a 95 OVR card could be so good?”

Cheat Code - Similar to glitch. Used when people are surprised that a player excels at something they are good at. “Joey Gallo is a cheat code...who could’ve seen a bunch of homers coming with that 100+ power?”

Good/Good - The only PCI placement outside of Perfect/Perfect that warrants a base hit.

Perfect/Perfect - Home run every time.

Moments - Exercises created to cause misery on a personal level. They are self aware and understand weaknesses.

Comeback Logic - Poor attempt to deflect responsibility for giving up a lead in the late innings.

Broken - The state of MLB The Show after a game in which a player swings at 85% of pitches in the dirt and loses to their opponent.

I'm a teacher. Tons of respect and great wages...

It blows my mind that an adult uses the word "loosing," but here we are.

I just played a game where the guy’s pitcher was Corey Kluber.

I hate myself for far more legitimate reasons.

So the servers are down again,
Down like every night.
So they are.

In my heart, I want to play.
Summer's game is upon us.

Flying through the air,
Up into the sky.
Caught on the warning track.
Kick some dirt.
In cities across America.
Nightly, our games end surprisingly.
Go to sleep frustrated.

Pleas for a response
Are going unnoticed.
The supporters frustrated
Hear us.
Each of us paid you.
To give us entertainment
Instead we're exasperated.
Can't play a whole game.

Doesn’t mention anything about hitting. Who wants to guess how many people get on here saying “Hitting feels better after the update!”

My guess is at least 12.

I'd be totally ok with getting rid of friendly quit. There's really no reason for it. I never get one outside of the very beginning of the game, or after I've put up a few runs.

If a person starts a game, they should play the game. If they wish to leave the game, they should quit and take the L. If the game is 5 innings in and a team is winning but that person has to go take care of something in reality...they also should quit. You don't without playing the whole game. There are totally viable reasons for needing to leave a game early, but not really a single one that warrants another person saying, "Ok...let's let this not count."

I've even gotten messages where someone says something like, "Hey, I have an emergency I have to go take care of." I typically just ignore it and keep playing, and they don't quit...so either they lied or they don't know what an emergency actually is.

Moral of the story...a lot of people who play online are just trash people.

It doesn’t really matter. They don’t respond. They don’t address issues. I’ve defended them plenty of times, but this year is absolutely ridiculous.

I hate 99% of your posts, but this is the self awareness that I keep hoping will show up in some of these complaint posts.

@dyerwolf4_xbl said in July POTM? Any guesses?:

Lol, was replying to a padres fan. Dont know where you came from. Just trying to have a fun conversation. Just curious why he says soto has been bad in the field. You're thoughts big man! Thanks.

Juan Soto isn't a very good fielder...He's not bad, but he's not very good. He's pretty much replacement level, if not slightly below. It just kinda is what it is. He's not paid to be Andruw Jones. He's paid to hit. Hence him being stuck in left field, a traditional spot to hide great hitters with poor defensive skills. Sadly, he's probably having the best defensive year of his career thus far, and still contributing negatively overall.

I love how some of you guys think you know how long an update takes. SDS is trying to make the game better with these updates when traffic is lowest. Stop whining and be grateful that we have a fun game.

And the Cubs still suck.

How many WS has Milwaukee won in their entire existence? Literally zero.

With their 93 year head start, the Cubs have amassed 3. In one of the biggest markets in the country. 3. And 2 of those were in the 1900s. So, that’s not as big a dig as you think it is.

@dbbg1515_mlbts said in How about Brujan and Franco:

Judging a 20 year old future star by his first few months is nuts. But, the bigger question is how is Franco’s live series card a gold?

Yeah…if everyone did this Mike Trout would be a no name, washed out tv weatherman.

Looks like it’s finally back up. And so is my two month old.

Man what do yall do for work that waking up at 7 is early? Sounds amazing

I’m a teacher. I’m on my last week of summer vacation.

Game update.

Which has been downloaded and installed.

It's not just an update.

Server maintenance shouldn’t take more than a few minutes, unless there’s a big issue. There should not be a big issue this far into the game cycle.

@silverbullet3519 said in I know what I’ll do!:

Game update + server maintenance then apparently.

Yeah, that shouldn’t take hours.

I’ll get up early before the baby is awake to grind out a little bit more toward finishing the 4th inning program.

Oh, servers are down? Because why wouldn’t they be down in friggin July?
