Hello Mr. DBI:
The leaderboards can be frustrating at times, so I understand where you are coming from. Some players buy and/or save up bonus games. If they decide to play them in a brief period by using auto play, it is very possible to accumulate…
Victor Martinez is batting .408 in close to 5,000 at bats. He also averages a HR every 18.1 at bats. Being a switch hitter with his skill ratings in my opinion make him the best.
I know there is a commercial promoting Tang Moyada. Did the video show a family on a very hot day, and the mother takes them for a ride in their car for an crushed ice drink? Probably the same marketer as the Angel Soft ads.
Well, saw something new tonight. I hit a ball fairly deep to left center, and the LF started tracking the ball quickly. I then heard, "oh my" and the LF dropped the ball for a two base error. Here's the odd part. The ball bounced off the LF's mitt …
Sounds like a good plan DTrain. I'm still not sure why there hasn't been an update to assist with managing inactives better. Jemic seems to be the man in the know with such things.
Dtrain:
I have 857 inactives, so you are pretty close. The blue cash and gold amounts seem accurate too.
As I explained, I did not want to trade in my inactives, and basically wanted all players 3.5 stars and above on my roster.
The loading is sl…
By drafting the second rounders, I obtained players up to 4 stars. The 4.5 players and above I obtained only with the use of gold and only after taking out the second rounders. That's how I remember it. It does cost a lot more to do it this way, tha…
Hey StarCat:
I drafted all players 2nd round and above, and decided not to take any late rounders. I did this partly based on the issue of too many inactives and the subsequent problem of game lag. It has worked out pretty good. This strategy allow…
Jason:
I was not going to comment further, but now I feel compelled. Once again, rather than take the high road, you chose to present your position with a condescending tone. I did a brief review of your posts, and almost all have a negative connot…
Jason:
There is a way to get your point across without making disparaging remarks about people. First off, I agree that there are a multitude of ways that GLU/TSB generate revenue, and you have mentioned a few. However, the developers of TSB have s…
Without a doubt Eyefish. Unless there is a great disparity in rating, a right hander will fare better in this game. Obviously if a team has a stacked left handed lineup would be an exception.
Surfin, first and foremost I like batters with a 9 hitting rating. Speed is the second dynamic I look at, and I try to keep players with 6 and above (there are exceptions). The exceptions are when the batter has a hitting rating of 9 and power of 7…
Eyefish, what I like about your starters is that with the exception of Gio Gonzalez they're all right handed. That is good for when you face Legends and teams with dominant right handed hitters. I also like your rotation order. As I've pointed out …
Metropolitans:
I like your team! I don't think your relievers are weak at all. I would put Rosenthal in Cotts place (I have all right handed relievers) and make Farquhar my closer and switch him with Fien. Maybe Rosenthal as a set up guy might wo…
Hey Eyefish,
Crawford and Martin are lefties, so even with the same ratings should yield higher batting averages. I would keep them as you never know what the next player update (change in ratings) will bring.
Very nice Surfin, you have a great all around team! No weaknesses I can see. Have you ever tried Sandoval at 3rd in place of Arenado? Ratings are very similar, but Sandoval is is a switch hitter. Neither is a base stealing threat, and 5-6 power i…
Kaymoney:
Your team looks very solid. One suggestion I would make is to put John Jay as a starter in the outfield instead of Jason Heyward. They are both lefties, so that's a wash, but there is a big difference between a hitter with an 8 rating vs …
