  • @SandlotGuru, you definitely are deserving, imo.  I know you aren't a big poster, but you always seem to have valuable insight.  Your gameplay strategies and numbers have definitely helped me.
  • On a positive note, shout-out to @SandlotGuru for VIP of the month!
  • Yep.  I saw that push notification, bit no gift.  I thought it may have been related to the VIP newsletter gift that I had already collected, but I don't know.
  • .30 discounts only work on players from weekend boxes.  .20 from fieldpass works on every player on your roster.  .30 discount clubs are only available on weekends.
  • Yes, yes, yes. Edit: Combining with fieldpass is how most guys level on weekends.  Fieldpass milestones are dependent on your individual scoring, so it doesn't matter if you jump clubs.  Any points you put up in any club count for that club, while …
  • You can go back to your normal club for CVC events, but you will not be eligible for club event, or CVC season rewards.  You can still win the individual match CVC rewards with your club, and contribute points in club events.
  • I think the initial 345 and 350 releases had appealing skills, and ended up with longer shelf lives than GLU was anticipating.  That is why the skills have regressed to this hot mess. The nerfed power probably has to do with TB and HR battles, in t…
  • On an unrelated note: If you are a praying person, please spare a moment to advocate for Intern Chad's immortal soul.  He didn't take our advice, and I fear he may be in too deep, now...
  • If anyone can figure out which survey that is, please post, and tag me.  I am always up for any excuse to discuss my deuces with a stranger.  I would not be so crass as to open with that, but if I can work it in during normal conversation, that is i…
  • They are also pushing a guaranteed 380 Kershaw, and 3 pxp deal boxes for $19.99.
  • He will be absolute money for BGs, prime, CVC.  Not so much for WOH, though.  If I snag him, I probably still won't level him, because I am am saving pxp for keeper skills right now, but he does look good.
  • You will have to take into account any free AS tickets you have received.  That may mean you need to make another small purchase or 2.  Then wait.  It doesn't hurt to contact CS, but $ spent is what it is all about.

  • On the flip side, once you get that first hit, Kepler becomes the clear best of that list. And if you don't get that first hit on your first at-bat, you might be in trouble, anyway.
  • I would say Freeman, too.  Kepler's 303-294 hit advantage is not that big, given Freeman's skills are both always on.  Kepler is the clear 2nd choice though, imo.
  • No idea, but one would have to assume so...
  • It is a known issue.  Switch hitters don't work in TB, when hitting right-handed.  It has been an issue from day 1, but apparently has still not been addressed...
  • I did for sure, but I have changed my outlook on roster construction since then.
  • That's exactly what I mean.  No sense in blowing the bxp I have, when I am so short, compared to what I need to jump-start a move to platinum.  If I was sitting on 750k, I would be more likely to level Wong now, but I need a lot of bxp grinding…
  • For sure.  I meant for new players coming out.  I, personally, am not a WOH-specific player.  I much-prefer players that can be relevant across multiple game modes. Edit: That is why I love the HH skill so much.
  • Hell, neither Wong nor Garcia will be as good for TB as Dietrich...
  • I have about 250k bxp, but I am going to suck it up, and move to platinum fairly soon, so I think I might be better off holding off on anything but a no-brainer upgrade.
  • Please don't give them any ideas.  Those event-specific skills are annoying.
  • I think I will probably just stick with Dietrich, since neither Garcia or Wong are needs.  I will probably leave them both inactive and at B1 for a while, just to revisit this internal argument over and over... I definitely like Wong the best of th…
  • I have yet to see a specialty player in the options for the picks I have opened, but I know that many have.  Then again, my luck runs between lukewarm and ice-cold, so my chances of pulling one is almost nil.
  • Coding an "open all" would probably be a nightmare (not a programmer, so just guessing) especially as it relates to the xp they are worth, and the repull xp, especially.  Let's be honest, that is all those picks are really ever good for, anyway.
  • Ok.  I will wait patiently.. 
  • But I want it now. I'm in a glass case of emotion!
