I got Messick and Diaz through the exchanges. Funny thing is Glasnow and Yamamoto were the (not so) secret weapons here.
I was just thinking that when I did the exchange for Messick (only guy I really wanted). I guess Thing 1 and Thing 2 come in handy now.
Exactly. My last online game I had three instances where it cost me an out. My opponent got snubbed at least once too. I was even getting those animations grinding offline mini-sesaons last night. It had me wondering is there a way to get the good animation or is there something causing my game to react slowly.
Is the reaction just really slow with 2B / SS throwing the ball, primarily on double plays? Online or offline, my guys take an eternity to get the ball out of the glove. It doesn't matter how early I preload the throw.
Feels like it has gotten progressively worse over the last month. It's not even the stuck-in-mud animation as much as they use an extremely weak toss or extended animation before the throw. The game keeps choosing the worst animation possible to where I'm barely getting one out on should-be double plays.
trod had a video showing someone with a box score that had 115 runs in two innings. What exactly is the point of making it that obvious.
The Negro League content has been pretty sus this year. John Don's hitting stats on his 99, Smokey Joe not having outlier on his fastball, they removed four guys (including two of my favorites in Dihigo and Rube Foster). Overall, the cards are good enough to use as a theme team for fun (that is, once they release more).
I could see a maxed out Pujols or Hernandez even though some people would probably dislike that.
I would love a maxed Pujols
We all would but it is highly unlikely that they make both of his usable cards collection rewards. I would not be happy at all
What about as an Extreme reward? That's what they did with Roger Clemens last year, a collection then an extreme.

Me too.

Hmmmm well I don't see it for this upcoming week (through 11-6).
They wouldn't do it on the week of the 20th because of Weekend Classic (they don't run events during that).
The next week is Thanksgiving weekend.
Then we're in December.
So if they don't release it around the 13th, there's a good chance we don't get it.
So this ends up as a program where you can earn the cards either through a program or just buying them as a different variant. Tricky but cool.

Mandatory moments once again today
At least you can skip one or two, this time.
Imagine if the triple were required.
Mays is weird for me. I haven't tried this new one yet, but for me he typically performs better online than offline.
There has been a clear (and deliberate) diminution in rewards across the entire year and it's not at all a good sign for the future of this game.
I'm just curious as to the thinking on their part. Is the idea that I'm supposed to purchase more packs / increase playing time to get a reward? Because between the hideous pack values, black hole of nothingness (XP path), and so many cards essentially costing more $ in stubs than the game itself, these past couple of months have all but guaranteed that I'll be investing less time into this mode come '27.
Moonshot.
what happens when two people cheat against each other?
a second 99 Pujols would either be Extreme (like they did with Clemens's second card last year) or one of the very last cards (like they did with Beltran's second card last year).
Extreme event is one of my favorite parts of DD. I still think it's coming out early to mid November. Any later than that and most people wouldn't even have enough time to play with the rewards /:.
I got one a week ago after i checked out WS rewards. Never played ranked this year
Yeah that happened to me about two months ago. I think I got Ray Durham out of it.
Half of this community wants no grind - they just want to be given the cards for no effort. Some of these players are really good, some streamers...and only want to play ranked god squad on repeat. Some of them are really not good, and dont want to have to play the game to earn things.
There's also the group who either don't have enough time to grind or they don't have enough time to play after they've grinded hours for a card.
