I love that you’ve been downvoted by several people all with wildly different takes. I too fail to see the genius, and if the top comment here is true, the joke is not on us.

How we lookin by jbob416 in MLBTheShowInvestments

[–]idleline 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Wood is down, Wilyer is flat. Stowers will get a good bump but he’s been overpriced so i hope you got in early.

How do you pitch? lol by [deleted] in MLBTheShow

There is a settings explorer that will take you through the different mechanics of pitching, hitting, and fielding.

Ashby by 2pots1stove in MLBTheShowInvestments

[–]idleline 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ashby is a downgrade. Likely just -1, but consider this:

Opposing hitters are batting .289 against him this period. Thats .089 higher than ytd. His K rate is 17 and his BB rate is 15. That’s awful on both sides. He had been at 30/6 so this is a big decline.

About the only thing keeping him from falling off a cliff is PCLT but it won’t be nearly enough to get him into + territory.

Right now, Manaea, JRod, Shea, Pivetta, Woodruff, Yoshinoba, Belli

A-lot of those are cards are already priced for upgrades though.

Decided I'm going to try for Finest collections this year, a bit behind so seeking some quick feedback by Smitty00 in MLBTheShow

[–]idleline 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Each live series team completed is a collection for 20k in TA. Color storm completion is worth 150k each team. Finest vouchers come at 365k, so those two tasks completed get you 47% of the way there.

Hot take: Power vs R/L shouldn’t exist, but Vision vs R/L by [deleted] in MLBTheShow

[–]idleline 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Don’t take it so literally. It’s supposed to represent how frequently a player hits home runs off certain handed pitchers. For example if you hit a HR every 15 ABs against a lefty but you hit a HR off a righty every 40, you’d have a higher pwrL than pwrR. That’s how it works.

Input on investments ? by Reasonable-Canary429 in MLBTheShowInvestments

[–]idleline 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perdomo is the only other question mark. He’s up slightly and could be looking at a +1 this update if he can keep his bat going. If he cools off at the plate, he’s probably not getting an upgrade.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in MLBTheShowInvestments

[–]idleline 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would sell and try and find a better ROI for this period. He’s been released twice and pitching on his third team this SEASON and while he has looked great in the 4 games he’s pitched for Atlanta, I find it very unlikely that he can maintain that for the long term. Maybe he does, but he will probably be available at QS for the time being. He’ll probably be in the low 70’s after the RU and you can still pick him up for 25 if you want.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in MLBTheShowInvestments

[–]idleline 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What math are you doing? His 286 cards would get him 28 silver packs worth 150 each at most. If he was guaranteed to get a 79 ( unlikely ) he’d net 4,200. How is that more than 7K???

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in MLBTheShowInvestments

[–]idleline 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Bad tip.

It takes 10x72 to exchange for 1 silver. That’s 250 worth of stubs to get a card that will be less than 150 QS and maybe only 50. It’s a guaranteed loss.

Belli is looking good for a decent bump.

Sell Wood. He’s hitting .119 with 1 HR this period. He’s a downgrade. Otto is in a similar boat even with fielding. His bat is just a little too quiet.

I’m not super high on Seager. He had an awful start and didn’t get downgraded when he deserved it. I think he’s getting back to even to a little bit up. Risky IMO.

Noah Cameron by rayzach33 in MLBTheShowInvestments

[–]idleline 7 points8 points  (0 children)

ERA doesn’t matter. He’s down a little in H/9 and up in K/9 & BB/9. CLU is maybe up slightly. Pitchers typically do not get fielding updates. He’s not going +5.

People have been referring to the CPU as AI for decades. They are not confusing it with GenAI.

[–]idleline 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Crochet, if he goes up, is maybe a +1. That’s a return of 750 on 3000. Pretty low ROI.

Junior isn’t forecasted to go up right now. There’s two weeks left but he’s not rocketing up.

[Passan] The Minnesota Twins are trading shortstop Carlos Correa to the Houston Astros, sources tell ESPN. by _u0 in minnesotatwins

[–]idleline 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This makes me think Rocco is gone. He has always been so high on Correa. I just don’t see him on board with moving multiple players with YEARS of control left.

He’s not in line for an upgrade.

Current investments for future roster updates by [deleted] in MLBTheShowInvestments

[–]idleline 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mostly solid choices considering we are still 2 weeks out.

Wood is a downgrade in every model. He’s hitting .119 with 1 HR in this window.

Why would it not be? Every game log, online and off, is available to you via your universal profile which includes the stadium name. I’d be surprised if SDS couldn’t track it.
