MLB the Show 21 Q&A

Re: MLB the Show 21 Q&A

Apologies if this has been asked. I did search most of the pages and didn't see anything.

For "authentic" franchise players, is CPU bullpen logic improved this year? In the past, CPU teams would use the same bullpen arms over and over again.

This is actually an issue to do with pitcher staminas. I have a more technical explanation for it, but the TL;DR is that pitching staminas are too low, triggering the CPUs "protection" logic, where they'll continually wear out the same arms in an effort to protect arms they end up never using. Pushing out staminas will solve the issue.

Currently playing 20 with 8 starting stamina, 8 relief stamina, and 4 CPU manager hook. It's not perfect, but it's vastly improved over the default, and the bullpen is much more widely utilized. Don't worry, the stamina sliders only have a small impact on total pitches power night. My innings pitched stats are quite realistic across the board.

Do you have to play Diamond Dynasty to "better" upgrade your RTTS player? or can you just play RTTS with the same results?

Re: MLB the Show 21 Q&A

Sorry if this has been asked before, but us there an attribute that causes the outfielder animation where they start in on a fly ball and then realize it's over their head and try to go back for it?

I had it occur on back to back batters. 1st my RF, then my LF. Very frustrating. Lol

I’m confused on the team vs division programs. I want to get Frank Tanana and see I have to complete the Angels program but only see divisions, what am I missing here?

I think last year they said "Reaction" is responsible for this. The better the attribute, the better his first step in the right direction

Re: MLB the Show 21 Q&A

I've not dealt much with dynamic difficulty. I know there are + levels and whatnot. Would default All-Star pitch speeds be slower than Default All-Star + pitch speeds? Also, does dynamic difficulty go past Legend and have a Legend + or however many +'s a level can have? I ask because I'm curious as to if there is any way to get pitch speeds to be even higher than that of Legend with the sliders set to 10.

Re: MLB the Show 21 Q&A

I pulled a diamond Manny Machado from a card pack I bought and now he’s missing!!!!!!????

Please research and give me back Manny. He is worth a good bit of stubs if I wanted to sell and also was planning on using him in Diamond Dynasty.

Please give me back Manny!

Re: MLB the Show 21 Q&A

My favorite player of all time is Kirby Puckett. I was just looking through the roster and saw he was a legend free agent.

I went to the marketplace and he doesn't have a card to buy. Anyone know how to get him for Diamond Dynasty. I'm new to the world of DD. lol

He is the Twins Live Series reward - you need to collect all of the Twins live series players and then lock them in to get him. Buxton will, of course, be the most expensive, but they should all be available in the marketplace.

Its realism of the game. A poor fielder takes bad routes or has poor reaction at times.

Thank you.

I can honestly say I would have never figured this out.

I got him last night for under 20k in stubbs after buying 36 of the Twins I didn't already have.

thanks again

Usually means nothing (upload or download) is in progress. Patch 6 was very small so it may have downloaded before you realized it was done.

Is there a setting where I can stop swinging at the first pitch. LOL
