Almost to end of BR program myself, trying to decide between Paxton or Leiter, or selling and getting Vida.
Leiter is the best sp in the game and it isn’t very close
Why? Thought Cabrera had that locked up...
If you can hit Cabrera sinker he is not good at all. Leiter has more than one pitch to try to sit on.

I'm new and 52-64 on DD....I'm sick and tired of the 1-0 games . I pitch elite, but I can't effing hit for shiate....it seems like the last few days I'm hitting the ball everywhere, right on the nose and I'm grounding out , fly out, line out etc...meanwhile the opponent can't hit the side of a barn with a giant tennis racket and he swings at everything. For 1 fricking contact he hits a bomb....I strike these [censored] wipes put 17 to 20 times a dam game....
I'm sick and tired of effing can't score a dam run...if I would score 5 a game I'd be 90-26...seriously ,all you haters can suck a big a #$%^ but I'm just done playing this game. Hitting isn't coming around. I'm Uninstalling the game. I have no clue how to get better at the plate....it would be cool if 2 players could be on a team, one hit and one defense...screw hitting
The fact that you are even close to 500 being new is an accomplishment itself. I have been playing now close to three years and have just got to division series. I have the same problem as you do but I rely on my pitching to win. I have like a 50 - 20 record and a ERA around 2. I score maybe 2 to 3 runs a game off of not beautiful hitting but my pitching is what saves me. Make sure you have something that supports 60fps and try to stay away from larger screens unless it is a newer more expensive model.

You want Leiter.

What’s the rewards??
Pretty sure they are live series diamond packs. 2 85 - 89 packs
I have only had this happen to me once. Otherwise all the dashboards/disconnects have given me wins.

My contribution to this thread will be short and sweet: I've always preferred meter and will continue to use meter. Don't care if I don't get any higher than 700 in RS.
I'm content.
End.
I think perspective is huge here, and you really laid it out nice and simply: Know who you are, be OK with who you are.
Or make the adjustments necessary to become the person you want to be.
I am in my 30s, work 40 hrs a week and do not have the time to grind like I did when I was in my teens/20s. I will never hit WS in ranked games...sh!t I may never break 650. I have no intent on grinding to get better at the game. Fine, I can still have fun. My team is freak'n loaded and I may have played a total of 15 online games.
I play moments, conquest, v CPU and v CPU community teams. I love it.
The complaints about ranked games/PPP scream "I want to be good at this game, but I am not -- and its the developers fault that that is the case."
The NEED to win should not usurp the enjoyment of competition -- and that concept is totally lost on people.
VERY well said.
Love this

It certainly didn’t help it. People that don’t know how to pitch probably like it though.
Dude stop. "People who don't know how to pitch probably like it" lmao. The game forced pitches with good input down the middle in 18, 19 and 20. The guys who liked that were the scrubs who can't hit pitches on the black and have to wait for those cookies down the middle to be somewhat successful. I'm not gonna make assumptions which category your or OP fit, but take a good long look on the mirror and decide for yourself.
So to you the opposite of that was to put it in the exact same spot every time with such a simplistic system? Then when your opponent hits it’s just random output? Okay. I just always base my opinion on the fact that gamers nowadays, and after 8 years in sports games especially sports gamers, win at every cost and want to cheese as much as possible so if something new is added to the game and the majority of people like it then it probably isn’t good for the actual game. If a YouTuber found a way to bunt for a base hit every time 100% right now that is all you would see online until it was patched.
And I’m alright at the game. Would be better if I enjoyed it online. In actual games I’m probably 80% win and would be higher if I cared to enough stick around. I pitch with analog by the way and still think it’s too easy compared to the randomness of hitting. But it is what it is. And that’s the game.
If you can hit pitches in every location, it doesn't matter if your opponent can throw accurate pitch after accurate pitch. However, If you can't hit every pitch in every location, then yes you have something to complain about. Case and point I would assume.
So you telling me sinker up and in is real baseball ? telling me being patient at the plate ... looking for a pitch you can drive , forcing pitchers in fastball counts ...man this isnt even baseball its all about who can put the PCi on the ball at any locations ... why take any pitches then there is no point because anybody can spot a offspeed in a fastball count.... you just a stupid fkin gamer ... not a baseball fan gtfo lol
Sinker up and in has nothing to do with the pinpoint mechanic and everything SDS shoddy programming.
Has everything to do with it as with pinpoint you can just dot up and in broken sinkers
You can dot that pitch with analog all day.
I do it every game.
@nuhuskerfan04_psn said in Call me crazy but 91 Orel deserves a spot:
I have 91 orel hershiser in my 5 spot in the rotation and he does work. gets 12+ strikeouts a game and doesn't give up many runs. he's an absolute stud and i feel like nobody talks about him
Tom Glavine
Fernando Valenzuela
Greg Maddux
Orel Hershiser
Corbin Burnes
He is not talked about frequently enough. When he first came out he was now he is a forgotten gem.
