MLB 14 The Show Franchise Progress

Re: MLB 14 The Show Franchise Progress

Still plugging away at my Pirates franchise. I'm 74-70 I believe and I'm in the #2 WC slot right now. It's going to be a close battle the final 18 games of the season.

I'll have to put a more in depth report in here soon.

Finally started back with this franchise once I just gave up on the subpar NBA 2K effort.

An 8th-inning triple by Mike Morse (Heyward crashed into the wall trying to make the catch) is all that kept me from my first perfect game. So close.

Re: MLB 14 The Show Franchise Progress

I'm now 75-74 with the Pirate after getting swept by the LOWLY Cubs in a 3-game series.

I'm 0.5 GB of SF right now for the 2nd WC. Thank goodness the NL is subpar this year because in the AL I would already be out of playoff contention unless I won 13 straight.

After six innings, the game mentioned I was nine outs away from a no-hitter, and then I realized I hadn't walked anybody either. It was definitely on my mind at that point.

Pablo grounded out to second after the triple to drive Morse in, so Teheran wound up not even getting a shutout.

Still might be better than my no hitter this year. I walked 7 batters. 4 of those were in the 9th when i had no stamina. Including intentionally walking Puig cause he scared the **** out of me. I was a little bitch.

I've started a franchise with the Brewers until better '15 rosters come out. (Better meaning more accurate.) I don't really want to keep PED user Ryan Braun. Would a trade be totally unrealistic?

Its your game. Your franchise! Do what you like? If you could get a MLB ready Pitcher and bat for him, I would do it. But I would personally keep him. Especially if I'm raking with him.. LOL

I traded Brett Gardner, Brandon McCarthy and a A potential prospect for him in my 2nd year Yankees franchise that I am carrying over to 15.

My starting outfield is now:

Braun - LF
Ellsbury - CF
Heyward - RF (whom I traded for as well in the winter meetings)

Not too shabby.

Re: MLB 14 The Show Franchise Progress

In year two of my franchise with the Marlins won the W.S., will be carrying over to 15 with it. have added a couple pieces to the mix in the off season ad early on in my season. Added Max scherzer in the off season as a FA. then traded Tom Koehler to the Nats for Gio Gonzalez. so this is my rotation..


Jose Fernandez
Max Scherzer
Gio Gonzalez
Nathan Eovaldi (reigning CY)
Jacob Turner

when 15 comes out i will be def be playing around in the trade finder first thing.. def no doubt..

i would like to see what i can get for a few players. I have the money to get who ever i want so cash is no problem. My pen is solid there is no way i get rid of any of them.

There are players i will be targeting to go after on each team. it will be fun to see if i can get them and what it will take to get them.

once again... thank you to the ENTIRE dev team for giving us this outstanding feature. i personally will abusing it to insane degrees.

Currently i am 16-4 playing on default Veteran for both hitting and pitching. a couple of side notes that i thought ere interestting during spring training.

Buck Showalter is now managing the Astros. So expect them to be much better in 15 and as long as he is at the helm.

Mike Scoccia is now managing the Mets,, same thing... expect them to improve... oh wait 20 games in and they are already 6+ games out of first place... lol...

going to be a fun season...

Re: MLB 14 The Show Franchise Progress

I think Theo Epstein is somehow spying on me, about 2 weeks ago in my Cubs franchise I traded, Samardzija, James Russell and Jose Veras to the Tigers for Smyly, Eduardo Sanchez and Phil Coke. Now I read that the Cubs just signed Coke IRL...hmmmm, Maybe I'll try and trade for Kershaw

Re: MLB 14 The Show Franchise Progress

I thought I was going to make a move for the wild card game in my Braves franchise. My record is 74-71. I am in a September slide... 17 games remaining I am about to complete a 3 game series vs the Nats. I loss the first 2. Starting pitching not the issue, not enough offense.

I have to jump three teams for the wild card spot: Brewers, Padres, Dodgers & Reds. The good thing is they all at least a 3 game series remaining against each other. I look at this way the first team to 90 wins are in! The Padres & Dodgers are really battling for the NL West title 80-81 wins tops.
