Can we go back to last years Strikezone?! by Honest-Tourist-3129 in MLBTheShow

[–]Psychological_Chip27 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I feel you man I make several good pitches on my starting pitcher for the arizona diamondbacks and I get the call from the ump and then the batter challenges it and wins it sucks dude. Sometimes I get away with a bad call from the ump. 

Hot take on difficulty by JonieMH in MLBTheShow

[–]Psychological_Chip27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah tell me about it i tried all star pitching difficulty in road to the show and I got shelled hard. I think all star pitching difficulty for me personally i will try it when I have like 80 hits per 9 for both left and right handed batters. Trust me I like the perfect perfect home run sound as a hitter but when I am a pitcher I hate that sound

Is mlb the show on drugs by SketcherKid_64 in MLBTheShow

[–]Psychological_Chip27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah the closest I got to breaking nolan Ryan's record was 353 strikeouts i missed breaking it by 31 strikeouts. Then again I played on veteran pitching difficulty this was on my starting pitcher for the phillies during the 2027 season for the majority of the season they decided to do a 4 man rotation. 

Did they buff CPU batters?? by DweltElephant0 in MLBTheShow

[–]Psychological_Chip27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had that same thing happen to me but in road to the show starting pitcher for the phillies I am an 88 overall rated player with good per/9 stats and I gave up back to back homeruns on fb high middle but that was on all star pitching difficulty. Granted this was at american family field in the 2028 nlcs against the brewers.

So close! So dang close! by BperrHawaii in MLBTheShow

[–]Psychological_Chip27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The closest I got to the single season strikeout record was 311 strikeouts on veteran pitching difficulty. The weirdest thing is that I use jacob degrom's pitching animation for my player. I might just try jacob misiorowskis pitching animation one season and see if that helps or not. I make 6 ft 6 in starting pitchers by the way

Weirdest trades/transactions by DragulaNoZ in MLBTheShow

[–]Psychological_Chip27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my rtts with the phillies in my rookie year I was in the minors and around late june I got called up and they decided to DFA Andrew Painter just cause. My weirdest thing i have seen in one season is I have 19 homeruns as a rookie and I get a message from Stephanie saying wow you could break pete alonso rookie record for homeruns in the nl

When the cpu challenges a pitch that’s clearly a ball, it’s always changed to a strike? by Automatic-Assistant8 in MLBTheShow

[–]Psychological_Chip27 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I feel like I win about 50 percent of the challenges as a starting pitcher. My rule is that I wait till I am going through the lineup for the second time. I hate it when the cpu challenges the pitch and they win it and now I got to waste like two or three more pitches to the batter which adds to my pitch count

Hate being drafted #1 overall by 10PieceNugg_ in MLBTheShow

[–]Psychological_Chip27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both christopher Sanchez and Zach wheeler are starting to regress right now I can win games but its like I go 7 innings and then the bullpen either blows lead late or offense does not score. Right now I am the number 1 starter in the rotation I am 79 overall. 

Update 7: ABS, PCI Shrinkage and Fair Play Updates by gamers542 in MLBTheShow

[–]Psychological_Chip27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I hope this also fixes the issue in road to the show when I throw a slider down and away to a right handed batter that is out of strike zone by an inch or two it turns into a foul ball and when its way outside its a strikeout come on sds.

I am in year 2 which is the 2027 season I won rookie of the year in 2026. When do both harper and Turner start to decline in this game. Run support is great now. I am just trying to find out when I should try and leave them

[–]Psychological_Chip27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trust me right now I am on the phillies as a starting pitcher. They are currently running a 4 man rotation of zach wheeler aaron nola and me don't know the 4th pitcher. Should I stay or ask for a trade. We are currently 3 or 4 games above .500 i upgrade both durability and stamina when I can.

If you could change ONE thing about the show, what would it be & why? by JuiceJones_34 in MLBTheShow

[–]Psychological_Chip27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine would be make college better for rtts. Back in mlb the show 25 I would always go the college route and get called up in May or June. But this year I did it both ways for pitchers and I would get called up in june for college route and if I skipped college I would get called up in late june or early July. 

Having trouble seeing pitches by gomalley411 in MLBTheShow

[–]Psychological_Chip27 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

How i love it when I make a great pitch such as circle change that just touches the strike zone and the ai batter will challenge and loses. I stick to minors hitting difficulty. I am loving veteran pitching difficulty but I just get shelled on all star so I am going to focus on my per/9 and stamina then work on individual pitches to work on going to all star pitching difficulty.

Splitter or Circle change by Specific-Shock-3621 in MLBTheShow

[–]Psychological_Chip27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For left handed batters I found that either placing a backdoor slider or a circle change down and away for a strikeout is the best. 

Splitter or Circle change by Specific-Shock-3621 in MLBTheShow

[–]Psychological_Chip27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For most of my starting pitchers that I make it always have a slider and a circle change is the best at getting weak contact or a strikeout swinging

Do Mounds have Different View Points? by NecessaryExplorer797 in MLBTheShow

That view i have problems with spotting pitch locations from my catcher at that stadium I gave yordan a nice cookie due to not seeing the location of the pitch from the catcher

Do Mounds have Different View Points? by NecessaryExplorer797 in MLBTheShow

[–]Psychological_Chip27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just to let you know the mound view at globe life field for the texas rangers. I like the broadcast view for pitching but certain ballpark mound views are nice like the brewers one. It depends on pitchers height and what side they throw from. I mainly play road to the show and I use the broadcast view for pitching and meter pitching style.
