0-11 vs Jansen, have had the score at 6-5 for 8 of those 11 and as soon as I do, the rain of curves arrive. Ryan had been straightforward most of the day but now his curves are out in force. Regardless, I'm 0-11!!!
I’m 2-8 vs Jansen today, pulled Ozuna and Bison, though I did get most of the 25M my club needed for 200 gold so that was good at least. The only upgrades to my team are Gossage but I won’t spend lxp on a relief pitcher and Hank I can’t afford to level really just playing for exp now.
4 times through so far. First 3 went pretty slick . Bf Harper on Jansen . The evening hours things change . What was working no longer does. It becomes very frustrating and an angry grind. The real insult comes with 3 Gurriel and an Ozuna, trash players that no one cycling will ever use.
Make it tough, but there needs to be a reward, not garbage .
Cycled twice with no restarts the first 2 times through and just burned 3 restarts on jansen with not one pitch to hit. Im done. I cant explain this game sometimes.. pulled ozuna both times and oddly enough all legend xp in boxes so i cant complain.
Had to use the video restart on Chapman, but Harper was able to take down the last 3 with no issues as long as he had a club batting boost. got the 445 blue XP 3B which was exactly who I wanted as he replaces a 365 guy. Now I only have 1 batter below 360. Beat Ryan with 0 outs and Jansen took 2 outs and hitting 2 sliders.
Only in Glu fantasy land does a pitcher throw a curveball on every pitch. I typically cycle a few times, but today only once. That was this morning. Ruth even hit a homer off a Jansen curveball twice. Tonight, he just pops them up or hits a grounder. So dumb. Yawn. Anyways, going to watch vids for gold.
The only one in the box that I actually wanted (have Hank already) and got him on the last cycle with 10 minutes to spare. Some don't like spending LXP on pitchers but I don't really need any new batters and still have 200K LXP after this. A strong LR is also hard to come by and the equivalent of landing a good catcher IMO.

4 cycles, 3 x Ozuna and 1 x Bison. What a piece of crap. I really hope for next year's version Glu does something to reduce the chances of pulling the same player more than once.
1-14, ozuna, not happy. Life was more complicated with a serious increase in app crashes and video freezes, I mean beyond the curve barrages. So with just a few minutes left I'm about to play 5.9 and Pffff app crashes, ending my day. Not a fun day. See ya Wednesday
I got stopped on 3rd time trough. First time just needed vid retry and done!! 2 nd time was 4 k gold wasted on 5 cycles of level 5 until jenson finally cracked again. 3rd time was another 5-6 cycles of level 5 and 2 k gold but jenson wouldn’t give up that last fastball!!! Seems to get harder each time for me!!
Ended up 3 for 9 vs Jansen, I really struggled with Ryan though I probably get an easy 8 to 10 more Jansen attempts if not for that. 1 Ozuna and 2 Bison, I manually batted more today so a net +400k cash too, as I begin to start the long slog for getting ready for platinum, the evo is going to kill me. 1350 evo I might have to think about either starting a club or finding a reset club, sucks because I like where I am but I digress.
Why do levels that you easily autoplay earlier in the day and win almost every time suddenly and inexplicably become ones that you lose almost every time? Literally nothing has changed about the matchup.
I strongly believe that the developers tweak the RNG throughout the day....starts off low, then they turn it up from 7-10pm EST and the last hour and a half it gets turned lower again. Can't prove it but that's what I think.
It was a bittersweet day for me. I took my Hank to b10 and traded him in, hoping to pull him again. Unfortunately, it didn't happen. However, I got two nice legends. Pretty stoked about both Trout and Goose. I actually pulled Goose three times. However, I can't help but be bummed that Babe is no longer my guy at 5.10 vs a righty. Final numbers: Babe was 10 for 26, Bryce was 9 for 16; 20 of 57 on lxp boxes. On the bright side, here are my new toys!

Would be be more enjoyable if there were more hittable curves to compensate for the increase in variety of unhittable fastballs.

Stop jacking up the difficulty late in the day! It's not subtle!
Last cycle at the stroke of midnight. Hoping for trout or hank aaaannndd... goose
