Re: MLB the Show 20 Q & A Thread

Just got the game so might as well get this started.

I dont have a question but just wanted to say thank you for taking the time out to answer the questions we have.

You're a better person than i am.

If i got it early, i wouldn't answer crap. I'd be too busy selfishly playing the game.

Initial install before you can play the game while it loads in the background is 8.721 GB and I’m almost there.

For the people that want pics, I’m not sure the rules on that? I’m pretty sure it was a no no last year. Can anyone clarify for me?

Re: MLB the Show 20 Q & A Thread

Question regarding the Player Rating System --

I have a fairly simplistic question, so please forgive me if it sounds dumb with regards to player ratings. Is a individual rating of 60 considered average for a MLB player?

So in the attached Peralta card from 19, is it safe to assume he's close to elite when hitting against a RHP (89) but just a little better than so-so against lefties (63)? Does his 77 CLUTCH rating mean he's more likely than not to come through when the going gets tough, but since his DISCIPLINE is 56, he's also likely to chase and miss bad pitches out of the zone?

Lastly, does the same 60 rating scale also apply to pitchers?

Pitcher Rating Question --

Does the same 60 Rating Scale also apply to pitchers?

Thanks for your help!

Has the video board layout at the Oakland Coliseum been updated? For reference, here's the outdated layout:

If not all of them, maybe the top rated players at each position, please.

If you have 19 and go to the roster vault - the final live roster update was September 27. They changed the vault last year and it's harder for me to navigate but if you can find the final roster update in mlbts 19 in the past that final live roster is very similar if not identical to the first roster for the next year's release.

I can't speak to other modes but in manage mode the 56 discipline will make him less than elite vs rhp.

I have Jeff McNeil and he has similar attributes but is only hitting .240 because of low plate discipline.

Re: MLB the Show 20 Q & A Thread

I know there was a reddit thread last year where someone was screenshotting player ratings people asked for before the game came out.

Re: MLB the Show 20 Q & A Thread

How are the single A rosters looking? Is there a lot of generics, or are there some real prospects mixed in?

Oh and I know the kid 24 wanted to know if there was bike catcher equipment in this year?

No Nike catcher equipment

Single A I don’t recognize any of them from the Jays organization

Interesting side note to me is they used some of my CAPS from last year

Balanced and sharper seems smoother but I still can’t do sharper. Still that little bit of shuddering.

Can you use the retro broadcast themes outside of "Moments"?

Not there in play now
Just mlb network and “the show theme”
