In the last month we have lost Tom Seaver, Lou Brock, Bob Gibson, Whitey Ford and now Joe Morgan.

@allmustfall16 said in Ty Cobb is legit:

He’s right up there with Mantle in my opinion (as far as hitting goes). He seems to hit left handed pitching well too.

The fact he’s 90 power and can go up to 93 power from both sides with 125 contact is amazing.

Well deserved for one of the top 3 hitters of all time.

Cobb’s swing as always generated power. Even his (91) would hit HRs.

This is the best inning boss this year in my opinion. Hopefully next inning we get Willie Mays.

Well done SDS. This is why you’re different than 2K. 2k would have made people spend a week’s pay to get a card of this caliber.

I was waiting for a review on him...thanks. I'm envisioning him as my lead off hitter sort of like Rickey Henderson was with the As. Can hit, can hit for power and anything in the gap is a guaranteed double or triple.

Rumor has it that the 8th inning bosses are 99 Kershaw, 99 Pudge and 99 Foxx.

See my issue is on xbh moments. You hit the ball down the line and it should be a double, but the CPU runner who was at 1st stops at 2nd.

@Steelerof3Rivers said in Greg Maddux is awful:

I’m 5-0 with him with a 1.2 ERA but that’s just me & I was great with his 88 overall card also. I honestly think people just have to learn how to pitch with him. Paint the corners, Pitch to contact...It really works with him!

I was 8-1 with a .86 ERA and 114 SO with Maddux 88 so I would assume I would do even better with his 99. Also picked up 98 Orel and 97 May to try and find someone to go with 97 Wood 97 Leiter 98 Hal and 94 Hendrick.

@PhillyRunt44 said in Greg Maddux is awful:

Maddux has been elite for me. I love him. Gonna be my ace rest of year working on prestiging him....

Great to hear. This is why I love hearing other players opinions, but then also try them out. How Maddux or Wood or even 94 Hendricks pitches for other wont necessarily be the same as me.

Do you have any tips you can share as I assume you already have it done.

@mastermut4life said in HOF Ruth games:

I'm doing the 30 3 inning games today before 7th inning comes out tomorrow.

So what you’re saying is that you’re going to fatigue yourself with a really boring grind (and it is really efffing boring ,which In and of itself is mentally fatiguing) prior to new content coming out. Sounds like a great idea.

I actually enjoy it. It's a nice break from RS & Events. I don't find it boring or fatiguing at all.

After putting 98 Griffey Jr in LF and 99 Babe at 1st, I don't have a need for any of the bosses. I can actually hit with 98 Griffey and Babe is well Babe who hits mammoth no doubt HRs.

Both Cano and Hornsby rake for me.

@TheGoaler said in Props to SDS on the WS program:

The title is confusing since most of the players we get are watching the WS like us, at home.
I got lucky and did all the stats in one game, striking out Blackmon for the 20th K and final out!

Yep. 1 game vs Baltimore CPU and John Means is all it took. 17 SO by Fried and 3 by Stanek.

@mjfc_363 said in How does this game affect people?:

Does this game ruin anyone’s day?

I get frustrated, but it doesn't ruin my day. I remind myself it's just that a game.

Interesting. Never thought of it before.

@elway7751 said in New Moment:

I'm sure we all know what the next moment will be.
Unbelievable!!!!

I actually thought about trying it in practice mode and see if I can make it happen.

@Hbomb_HOF said in Who’s going Diamond:

Is update on Friday like always?

I believe its next Friday

@ZayasPR1 said in Who’s going Diamond:

Who you think is going diamond in the last roster update?

Walker Buehler especially after Friday's WS pitching performance. He's gold 83 now.

The cards might go up again next Friday when the 2nd part comes out. However the fact that you can get them free from doing all the postseason moments and then this WS program is huge.

It was painful pitching with him.

Didn't do well with him. Where in the line up (2-8, obviously not a leadoff type guy) would you hit him at.

@krazy-kajun77 said in So what happens when you haven't done any postseason moments yet?:

I done like 5.....little by little...but cards arent that appealing

Made about 230-240K from the 16 cards. Ill take it.
