This is literally the worst idea SDS has ever come up with. I’m so sick and tired of facing 3-4 starters every single [censored] game! It’s out of control and just is plain stupid as hell

Lol the game has comeback logic. Anybody who thinks otherwise is in denial. I go up 5-0, 6-0, 6-1 all the time and my opponent can barely get a hit through 6 innings. Then all of a sudden all their batters turn into Barry Bonds and they proceed to launch 7 solo HRs and beat me 7-6...it’s starting to really [censored] me off and I am one of the strongest SDS defenders out there

Bo knows...

@arvcpa said in I think i just beat a professional show player in BR:

I dream of the day when all of the MLB forum participants will say "I beat @arvcpa , and it was the best day of my life. He was 1,000 - 0, and now he's 1,000 - 1". I like to dream BIG.

If this was Super NES Baseball Stars... maybe. I'm very old.

I see your Super NES Baseball Stars and raise you Bases Loaded

2001 DBacks Randy Johnson...don’t need 10, just this 1 thnx

@Sayjinman said in Team Affinity Stage 2:

So with Stage 2 coming out next week I have a couple questions.

1. Who do y’all think will be the players for Stage 2 for teams?

2. How much will the price of cards go up next week so people can complete exchanges for Stage 2?

3. Do you think it will be the same types of missions, or will it be something creative like grinding missions with the players from that team’s Stage 1 card?

I just hope it’s not faces of the franchise. That would be stale

I think it would be cool to have missions where you have to use the face of the franchise from stage 1 though. That way it would feel like your building towards something bigger with your player you earned

Sad part is they all suck compared to just bringing in a starter to close the game

@maurice91932 said in Starters as relievers:

There is nothing wrong with starters out of the pen.

This is Ranked Seasons. People are trying to win stubs, XP, and card rewards. They should have their entire 25-man roster available to them in anyway they see fit.

There are no rules in MLB that prevent a manager from using a player however they want. Position player as pitcher? Why not? A pitcher used as a pinch hitter or pinch runner? Go for it. Whatever you think will help you win the game. SDS did the correct thing by allowing us to do this.

What difference does it make if your opponent uses a SP out of the pen? Your job at the plate is to get hits. Period. Starter, Relief, Closer—it makes no difference. Do your job.

But I will say that if SDS wanted to reduce the usage of SPs out of the pen, they have to release better relievers. I think Rollie is the only reliever over 90. At least he’s all I can think of at the moment.

Lol this is the worst post I’ve read in a long time. Let me know the next time you see a MLB team throw any starter in back to back games just to win

@GradektheBard said in HRD Griffey:

But it looks like he will wear a backwards hat instead of a helmet.

He’s the reason I used to wear my hat backwards when I was a teenager lol

Just noticed this in the game! A 95 EE program!

How does Sale fare compared to the 98 Jesus card? Jesus has a sinker

Is that Wagner card really that much better than the one we already have? I mean, it has a change up, but is that worth 800k??

I wanted to take him, but I couldn’t pass up on Hornsby, best hitting 2B in the game prolly all year

Awesome!! Thanks!!

That’s just ridiculous. No way is he worth 50k lo

@AGENTSxOFxCHAOS said in These servers suck:

Servers are overloaded because of the new Ranked Season start.

Can't wait till they [censored] out next year on MULTIPLE platforms.

Do you think they’ll switch to dedicated servers instead of p2p?

We can only hope...with as much money as SDS makes on this game, I still don’t understand how they don’t already have them

@rosborn27 said in Prestige Sheff or TA Brett at 3B?:

I was rolling out Brett at 2B yesterday to finish the Event and he did admirably if you don't expect too much

I got Biggio and Jackie tho for 2B right now.

I’ll have Prestige Sheff soon and I’ve been using him at 3B with no real problems defensively so far. Been using TA Brett at 1B until I get Musial. Once I get Musial, who do I move to 3B? My OF is LF Mantle, CF Super Trout, RF Walker so there is no room for Sheff in the OF. What do y’all think?

The crazy thing is, both our team names were from the same city. It makes me assume, which I know I shouldn’t, that we are both there and both have good internet. The thing is I didn’t get disconnected from him. I got disconnected from The Show Server mid game. When a player dashboards or you lose connection with that player, it clearly states that you’ve lost connection with that player. When you get disconnected from The Show Server, that’s when you get hit with the L even if you’re winning. That shouldn’t happen mid game in this day and age

I dunno what the hell happened to the servers recently, but it totally sucks when you’re dominating an opponent and all of a sudden you lose connection with the servers and get the L. I never used to have these issues and I’m having them more and more now. Makes me not even want to play RS games.
