Really wish they would beef the POTM and other cards up. Ozzie and carter are both useless as well. You’ll literally never see anyone playing with them in any ranked ever beyond them trying for missions.
Just turned the game on for the first time since Thursday and I have an update. Anyone know what it is?
RIP to the ballplayer glitch. They also supposedly fixed the freeze-off method that you posted yesterday dblplay1212 https://theshow.com/game-update-9/
Fixed an issue where a runner would get a free base when stealing, if the batter was hit with the pitch during a late bunt attempt
Yeah they take one off the head off a come back and the computer says they are hurt. I’ve seen it happen a few times.
That was in their multi-player fixes. Even still, I've seen pitchers pegged in all parts of the body without injury. Think the only thing I don't recall seeing is a pitcher getting domed like Willpépé was mentioning.
lol look at this shit. He tried to backdoor a cutter low and away, perfect perfect... foul ball. I'm bad enough with Mantle, don't need this shit too.
Haha weird game. Up 5-1 going to 9th. Only given up 3 hits. Quick first out then dude his 3 straight tanks off Franco to make it 5-4. Thank God Mo came in to close it out.
Sounds like we're getting another Paxton for a flawless reward tomorrow. With all the legends and current players, why him? He had a 99 last year, and now probably a 98 this year? Makes no sense.
It sounds like he's the new flawless reward. That's from the Roger's Centre so it's Paxton or Verlander and we just got a 95 or whatever Verlander. Just weird to get another juiced Paxton card.
Thinking about it more now, he’s a lefty as well. May play more into it. But with you, mix it up a bit more.
If you're going to juice a current card, so many better options. And we're kinda lefty heavy with Leiter, Lee, Blue, and Glavine right now. Cabrera is only top end righty. Just a weird choice.
The LS Jessie Winker is a monster. I like him better than his POM card bc of inside edge vs rightys. I start with Braun in RF and go to Winker if a righty is pitching. I'm 8/18 with 5 HR with him. Had to change my cap to his swing lol.
Ohtani’s hitting like .302 with 8 bombs in June, wonder if they’d give him a 99 after he was already on the April program.
That Hader card is now fucking nasty with the change up. If you need a lefty arm and have not been using him I'd recommend putting him back in and giving him a go.
Nothing worse than pulling your first diamond in what feels like 200 packs and it being Manny Machado.
Just read on Twitter they have been down for 8 plus hours. I can tell you I tried at 6, had a call for work then, chalked it up to maintenance at the time.
Yea servers are down of course. I’ve started flipping cards. In 2 days I’ve gone from 103k stubs to 850k. Trying to complete the live series collection.
Type in MLB Show 20 flipping into Youtube and you’ll find tons of videos. Lance Armstrong is the best I have seen in terms of a video, he shows what he makes in an hour or over some set of time. He also makes some recommendations on investments every week if flipping isnt your deal.
Holy cow that is impressive. What are you primarily flipping and how much time are you spending on it?
BTW, Show zone now has a tracker if you are still trying to determine how much you need to complete the collection. If anyone wants it to get track how much you need to flip still. https://showzone.io/inventory/live-collection FWIW I usually flip like 30 minutes a day total and that nets me at least 30k on average. If things are hot I flip more, if things are dead I flip less.
Haven't done Moments in a few weeks and just looked at them. Gross at how many are pitch 7 innings or strike out 13 batters or get 12 total bases. Those take too fucking long.
I just spent all my stubs on Mookie and Bellinger last night. Now I only need to finish the Yankees to finish the Live Series collection. While it's tempting, I'm not going to try to not spend any real money on the stubs I'll need for Cole, Judge, and Chapman.
I’m up to about 415K, Trout the only person left. Watching my stubs go from 500k to 0 is going to hurt
I’m down to ATL, NYM, and LAA. So unless I get a couple of big pulls here soon, it’s likely not happening from me. I’m only at about 40k stubbs after finishing LAD and NYY yesterday.
The 11k one killed me. I got to 10 and just couldn't get the 11th. I hit 170 pitches in the 16th inning. I kept extending the game by letting them score to get another inning but finally gave up a walk off
Been messing around with contact swing. What I've found is that it's really only effective at high elevation places. Shippet, max elevation created stadiums, it's OP. You get a much bigger PCI and a good swing still leaves the park. I swear swings are a tick quicker too. Had a 462 ft HR last night with Trout at a max elevation created stadium. At regular parks, the slower exit velo is much more apparent. A good swing has warning track power. But honestly at Shippet or similar parks, there's no reason to not use contact.
For those that completed TA2, make sure you go into collections and do the bats and bat skins, it's like 9000 in stubs, plus a free bat. All of the shit you are trading is no sale, so not like you have the option to sell anyhow. If you need stubs and have no completed TA2, do that. Gives out so many packs and so many stubs and you don't even need to complete showdown. Highly recommend doing all the exchanges, this will show you the cheapest way but I posted previously that I just bought 83 golds for them and still made a fuck load. If you have the patience to exchange silvers, you'll make even more. You could also do bronze as well, but highly recommend against it. Finish up any conquest maps you have going (or run through the US map and get your free prospects) and then plug the players in that TA provides and play away. Highly recommend getting pitchers with a quick delivery. https://showzone.io/player-exchanges
I've been keeping all the jerseys and bats and shit just expecting some kind of collection at some point. I only sell duplicate diamonds. Everything else I keep for exchanges or collections.
