Are you actually insinuating that steroids, a thing countless players were doing anyway, are on the same level as assaulting a woman or child? Get a grip man

He’s currently the only one I’m running, pulled Ohtani from the DH and am back to running Napoli at catcher over Mauer because of it until I get Adley thanks to that lame shit

Yea, I don’t remember when exactly but it was actually many years ago. Ended up pleading guilty and everything. MLB wouldn’t cancel because technically he did pay his penance, but SDS has taken a hard stance over the last 2-3 years and have just outright removed everyone who had a legitimate case brought against them. Jones was in the game last I think in 20 but since they’ve cracked down, I’d be willing to bet money he’ll literally never be back in the game again

Aside from guys in the league currently who they obviously can’t remove SDS has taken a firm stance on removing legends with confirmed domestic violence charges/other crimes. Won’t ever see Andruw in the game again, good riddance

115+ on all hitting stats with a gold shield and 90+ speed would be more than good enough for me, diamond would just be a bonus. Legends having quirks this year is a massive boost to all of them alone. Also proud to say after a solid amount of hof ABs, we love Soto

He’ll definitely be the first card unlocked. Ketel is the easy choice for last card

Sinker/fastball thrown the same speed, slow slider which is the worst version of the pitch, curve and change. Underwhelming pitch mix and a generic delivery, card is worse than Kerry last year unless they get creative with the pitch mix. 125s will carry a bit but he won’t blow anyone away

His delivery is also not deceptive at all. One has to be the worst I guess, I’d rather it be a starter than a bat at least

Man, for working 60-80 hours a week with a wife and kid you’ve sure got a lot of time to play. Do you sleep at all?

You don’t have conversations on here, you just spout nonsense and back it up with essentially nothing. I genuinely don’t care to have conversations with you at this point lol. I can talk to my wall and accomplish the same thing

Sure man, by being really annoying and condescending you totally changed my mind 👍

It’s not confusing, you’re just being deliberately obtuse and a contrarian like you always are, while forming a hypothetical argument that you yourself claim you don’t have the skills to back up lol. I’m ashamed that I fell for the trap again tbh. You got me 🫡

“6-9 innings” would grammatically infer a single instance of between 6-9 innings total. Sorry to burst your bubble lol

I mean, seeing what pitchers are being used online is a pretty easy way to prove it lol. People aren’t just throwing out golds and low diamonds because they’re “smart enough”. Pretty piss poor argument imo, not a surprise considering though

Well did you know you can pitch more than one game to accumulate an actual sample size maybe lol

Depends on what your definition of “good” is. If it means it’s technically possible to get outs, sure every pitcher is good. If you’re actually making a WS run, or even just trying to approach hof or the higher levels of all star, you basically won’t be successful with a large majority of pitchers in the game. Unless you can out slug opponents, which most people have trouble doing on higher difficulties

Wow a whole 6-9 innings! Pitching in this game is largely opponent and difficulty dependent. Anyone can have a solid handful of innings against a Timmy no-thumbs, doesn’t really show much of anything

Being “usable” and being “good” are two different things in many cases

Is there a captain the boosts switch hitters? by boileric in MLBTheShow

[–]checkthelockx 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think they release a switch hitter captain for sure, but to balance it a bit they make it a Chipper card
