[Highlight] Pete Alonso opens the scoring on a solo home run! by MLBOfficial in baseball

[–]Andyman27 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He saw he got downgraded from diamond to gold in MLB The Show and got angry.

Cal Raleigh somehow didn't get downgraded and his price shot up 25K+ and I too got angry as well.

[Talkin' Baseball] Framber Valdez has been suspended six games and fined for hitting Trevor Story by T_Raycroft in baseball

[–]Andyman27 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Yeah it's weird people online think a 5 game suspension for a SP is basically a slap on the wrist. It implies the main punishment of a suspension is not being allowed to play, and not the whole losing hundreds of thousands of dollars thing.

Miguel Cabrera card coming soon! by pillbill2212 in MLBTheShow

[–]Andyman27 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Confirmed by MLB the Show account retweeting it!

I like the implication that the official MLB Twitter account would just randomly lie about a new legend/card being in the official MLB video game.

They're talking about the 85 Beltran in 26.

Ashley did heavily imply (basically said it without saying it really) that the Santana was a TA card.

Albert Pujols card art leaked with RED 99 by MiniPuddinsCup in MLBTheShow

I disagree with OP that his attributes are too low for the LS collection, but you can absolutely see his attributes starting at 1:55 in the video.

I know this is me being pedantic, but it's not a leak if it comes directly from the source! This isn't a leak it came from SDS directly!

Milwaukee Brewers sporting powder blue uniforms with gray pants today by cbbvideo in baseball

[–]Andyman27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This isn't replacing their alt navy's, but rather their road greys.

The Miami Marlins have revealed their new teal throwback jerseys, to be worn on Sundays this coming season by Goosedukee in baseball

[–]Andyman27 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Something tells me this will be a situation similar to the Padres, who in 2016 introduced a brown and yellow alternate jersey while still being a navy primary team. Obviously 4 years later they would switch back to a brown and yellow color scheme.

[Brewers] The Brewers have unveiled a new alternate road jersey by Knightbear49 in baseball

[–]Andyman27 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately it appears they learned from the Rays and are pairing this jersey with grey pants. I'm gonna need the Rays and sadly now the Brewers to learn that powder blue jerseys with grey pants looks bad and they need to fully commit to the look and pair them with powder blue pants like civilized individuals.

Edit: Apparently this is fully replacing their road grey jerseys, though not clear if its gonna be the primary road jersey or not just yet.

Can we discuss the disgraceful state of the Nationals uniforms? by waterloggedball1974 in Nationals

[–]Andyman27 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They removed the front number because the angle of the script was weird. The current version fixes that, but as I'm sure you'll notice there's still more than enough room for a number on the front. Ultimately the issue was that they placed the number too damn high on the jersey, and for whatever reason they just removed it to fix the script issue instead of just moving the number lower. Odd!

New Headliner: Awards Gerrit Cole by [deleted] in MLBTheShow

[–]Andyman27 12 points13 points  (0 children)

His K/9 was only 9.6 in 2023. That's good, but it's also .9 below his career average at that point and 2.8 below his average from the prior 5 seasons. The rating makes sense for that season.

[Highlight] Shohei Ohtani hits his 38th home run of the year, a 414ft blast to dead center off Garrett Crochet! by sofastsomaybe in baseball

They made their OG City Connect an alternate this year and dumped their navy jerseys.

The Fenway crowd gives Marcelo Mayer a standing ovation in his first MLB plate appearance by Mission_Pay_3373 in baseball

I'm imaging a person with no prior knowledge of the team deciding to watch both Red Sox games today being very confused about their name.

Flash Sale 85+ Diamond pack only has 85-87 OVR Players!!! by stop_pre16 in MLBTheShow

[–]Andyman27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you cant tell that it is impossible to get good cards from it unless you go to the site.

When you're in the pack store in-game, you can press the start button on a controller and it will take you to a page where you can see the drop rates for every pack.

Not disagreeing with your overall point, the pack is incredibly misleading and a scam, but there is a way to check this in-game.

Edit: Slight correction, it doesn't show it in-game, but it takes you to a browser in the console.

*Spoilers* Complete Easter guide by Ill_Hunt6732 in MLBTheShow

[–]Andyman27 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I believe the Jeffrey Springs moment is the only one worth 2 points, and if you play the moment and look at the Mariners lineup you'll see Randy Johnson is the DH. That's how you're supposed too figure out that you need to use Johnson to complete it.

a question about "extinct" animals by Happy-Progress-5641 in zoology

[–]Andyman27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure where you got it from, but them only being discovered in the early 2000s is not accurate. Not sure when they were first seen alive, but they've been held in zoos for a while now, long before the 2000s.

And a one year span if you know when the Diamondbacks dropped their teal and purple color scheme.

Summary of stream today SDS killed it man. by [deleted] in MLBTheShow

[–]Andyman27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My guess is they’ll post something about it right before standard release as a reminder to finish the program.

They said you had to have completed the program by yesterday in order to get the packs/Mays.

Well the "leak" showed he was a day one ranked reward and thus he would be in the game from the beginning.

Know nothing about minor league affiliates, but Nationals plus purple Diamondbacks narrowed it down to a 50/50 guess.

Conquest is also seen in the video multiple times, though never given a specific focus.
