For sure, I'm tempted to do an A's franchise just to keep them in Oakland...but the grind...oh the grind. I'm excited to see what happens with this franchise.

I did an A's franchise in 22. 3rd season got them all the way to the ALCS and lost. It was so hard to lose but a great franchise experience.

It's tough. Not much on the roster to build from, not a lot of high end prospects either.

Going to try to keep this going and update at end of each season and off-season.

Re: MLB The Show 23 Franchise Mode Discussion

We just got swept by the Dodgers coming out of the All Star break to fall six games behind the Phillies. My offense was on fire going in to the break but ever since the home run derby I’m late on every fastball and early on any off speed stuff. This is the first franchise I’ve er done where I need my offense to carry the team for me so it’s a totally different experience

Re: MLB The Show 23 Franchise Mode Discussion

Took a break from the show with all the new games released and with the cubs pissing me off I think ima do a rebuild with the Nats or A’s. I’m in august with the cubs will not delete the franchise but it’s on hold. I will likely sim 2-3 years so I can draft some players and hopefully have a couple ready for the majors. Will rank the simming years then go all in on free agency with team needs. Leaning towards Nats.

Reds Sweep Chi Sox

Reds Take Game 1 over Sox

The Reds came home from a 6 game west coast swing and continued their winning ways taking the first game of a 3 game set at home on Friday night. A 3 run 4th inning was enough for the Reds as they took a 3-0 lead following a 2 run Jonathan India homer to left. Chicago score 2 in the sixth to cut the Reds lead to 1. Jake Fraley ended the scoring with a sac fly in the bottom of the inning giving the Reds a 4-2 lead. Alexis Diaz shut the door in the 9th for the save. The two clubs will continue the series Saturday night.

Get the Brooms Out

On a beautiful Sunday afternoon the Redlegs got the brooms out against the visiting White Sox, as the Reds took game 3 4-1. Brandon Williamson picks up his first win of his young career following 7 innings of 4 hit baseball. The offense provided 10 hits including 2 homeruns from Spencer Steer and Elly De La Cruz. After sweeping the Sox the Reds are now 8-2 in their last 10 including 4 straight wins. The final 3 games of the 6 game homestand will be against the Mets starting on Tuesday.

Re: MLB The Show 23 Franchise Mode Discussion

2023 Washington Nationals

Game One: Lucas Giolito (9-9, 3.89) vs Quinn Priester (9-8, 2.85)
Luis Garcia got the Nationals off to a lead in the first with a solo home run. They would get a second run in the fifth when Brandon Nimmo tripled and scored on a sac fly by Keibert Ruiz. The Pirates would get a run back in the fifth when Hoy Park doubled and scored on a single from Tucupita Marcano. The Nationals broke it open with a two run home run by Luis Garcia in the eighth. Lucas Giolito would get the win despite only going six innings. He gave up four hits but walked four and only struck out three. Trevor Rosenthal got the save despite allowing the Pirates to get the tying run to the plate.

Game Two: Stephen Strasburg (12-7, 2.20) vs Mitch Keller (7-11, 3.97)
Gleyber Torres returned after missing two games with a strained forearm and hit a solo home run to lead off the second inning. Oneil Cruz responded with a two run homer in the bottom of the second to give the Pirates a 2-1 lead. Stephen Strasburg would then dominate, striking out 8 and walking just one batter before he hit Zach Collins to start the sixth. Colons had to leave the game as he was in serious pain and may need an X-Ray on his left shoulder*. The Nationals would tie the game in the eighth; CJ Abrams singled and stole second, and then scored on a double by Luis Garcia. Stephen Strasburg did not get a decision in this game, but he had one of his best outings of the year; 7IP, 8H, 2R, 1BB, 10K. The Pirates made a questionable decision in having left-handed rookie reliever Brian Coyle, who gave up the tying run in the eighth, start the ninth against Brandon Drury. Drury responded with a go-ahead home run, and Trevor Rosenthal would come in and get the save on just seven pitches.

*Zack Collins suffered a broken forearm and will miss the rest of the season. He has been replaced by rookie Scott Manaea

Game Three: MacKenzie Gore (9-9, 3.74) vs Jerad Eickoff (5-10, 3.91)
Luis Garcia and Yadiel Hernandez again proved to be early catalysts for the Nationals offense; Garcia would single and then score when Hernandez doubled. Hernandez would then be thrown out trying to score on a base hit from Brandon Drury. Gleyber Torres would pick up Hernandez by hitting a line drive home run to put Washington up 3-0 after the first. The Pirates would respond in the second with back to back home runs from Jack Suwinski and Michael Chavis, but the combo of Garcia and Hernandez struck again in the third, this time with a base hit and home run. Brandon Drury would hit a sharp liner to Oneil Cruz, but then Gleyber Torres would double and Andrew Vaughn, who is still hitting the ball hard but with limited success, would hit a two run home run that chased Eickoff from the game and put Washington up 7-2. The Nats got their eighth run on a sac fly from Keibert Ruiz following a triple by Brandon Nimmo, but then were hit with bad news as MacKenzie Gore would leave the game after giving up a base hit to Josh VanMeter to start the fifth. Gore was complaining of pain in his leg and while it might not be serious, he may be missing some time*. Hunter Harvey would come in for long relief, and the Pirates would get a run off of him in the fifth with an infield single by Scott Manaea, his first major league hit in just his second at bat. Josh VanMeter would hit an RBI double off of Harvey in the sixth to make it an 8-4 game. Carl Edwards Jr. would come in to pitch the ninth with a four run lead; Bubba Chandler and Scott Manaea would start the inning with back to back doubles before Ke’Bryan Hays popped out. Brian Reynolds would be intentionally walked and Aaron Bummer would be brought in to face Oneil Cruz, who struck out. Jack Suwinski would draw the two out walk to make it an 8-6 game, and then Michael Chavis would take a pitch high and inside and turn it around into a ball that just kept carrying for a walk-off grand slam. The wind was blowing out all game long, but this ball just did not want to come down, and the Nationals were handed quite possibly their most disappointing loss of the year.

*MacKenzie Gore is fine after leaving the game with soreness in his leg.

Washington still won the series, but the Marlins have won 6 in a row and have moved ahead of them in the standings by one game.

The Nationals (67-65) will have an off day before going home to face the Diamondbacks (62-71) in a three game series to close out August.

Re: MLB The Show 23 Franchise Mode Discussion

At All Star Break the Oakland A's are a disappointing 35-54.

Our lone All-Star is RP Advert Alzolay who has a 2.08 ERA over 73 innings.

At the draft with the #3 pick we took RF Alfonso Cortez who ended up a 72 overall with 97 potential. A speedy outfielder with solid defense and power. A picture of the draft class is included. Absent is a 1b we were unable to sign.

At the trade deadline the A's are 10.5 games out of the WC and second to last in the AL at 46-61.

Ramon Laureano (75) was traded to the Pirates for Jose Dominguez (68) an 18 yr old RP.

Joey Gallo (77) was traded to the Guardians for Lewis Graves (69) an 19 yr old SP.

Tim Anderson (77) was traded to the Tigers for 25 yr old LF Akil Baddoo (71) and 20 yr old RF Roberto Campos (60)

Re: MLB The Show 23 Franchise Mode Discussion

I just decided to start a new cubs franchise with updated rosters and all that. While they may piss me off irl it feels wrong using another team.

We won opening day 7-2 over the brewers .Stroman 6 innings 2 runs 8k. Mervis in his first major league at bat on the first pitch he sees hits a homer. He added an rbi single later. Morel 2-4 with a double and rbi triple. Everyone in the lineup got a hit.

HOF hitting legend pitching

At All Star Break the Oakland A's are a disappointing 35-54.

Our lone All-Star is RP Advert Alzolay who has a 2.08 ERA over 73 innings.

At the draft with the #3 pick we took RF Alfonso Cortez who ended up a 72 overall with 97 potential. A speedy outfielder with solid defense and power. A picture of the draft class is included. Absent is a 1b we were unable to sign.

At the trade deadline the A's are 10.5 games out of the WC and second to last in the AL at 46-61.

Ramon Laureano (75) was traded to the Pirates for Jose Dominguez (68) an 18 yr old RP.

Joey Gallo (77) was traded to the Guardians for Lewis Graves (69) an 19 yr old SP.

Tim Anderson (77) was traded to the Tigers for 25 yr old LF Akil Baddoo (71) and 20 yr old RF Roberto Campos (60)

Has anyone noticed in their franchise simulation the absurd amount of CPU complete games? While I'm playing day by day I see on the ticker at the bottom that another pitcher pitched a complete game, and to me it seems like a bit much.

I hire good scouts and set it to auto. I find scouting tedious.

I try to draft guys I've scouted, especially early, but I'll take a chance on someone we haven't scouted if they look interesting.

Of course when you draft people that you haven't scouted much they don't have a ton of interest in signing. Usually not a problem but this year I just couldn't get that 1b I drafted to sign.

Might try to look for him next year as I believe unsigned draftees are supposed to reappear but I don't remember the name.
