What Are You Working On? - MLB The Show 23 Edition

Re: What Are You Working On? - MLB The Show 23 Edition

Working on Monthly stuff. Threw a perfect game with Wacha on Legend

best pitcher in dd history

I’m only playing on Veteran, but have also loved pitching with Wacha. Reminds me of the Senga card from Set 1 in the “pleasant surprise” department.

Just completed May Topps Now, and enough of the Monthly awards to earn 99 Big Papi. I think I’m in love.

About to go on vacation for a week with no game access. All I can do in the meantime is flip/buy cards.

I was going to get Posada, but considering the ratings on Mauer, I might have to save up and delay the AL Live / Jeter prize. That's the best C card in Show history with his swing and the increased power.

Re: What Are You Working On? - MLB The Show 23 Edition

I'm saving for Mauer too... Already collected posada but thinking of selling Nolan ryan for him

Currently at 197k so prob won't take too long to just save up regardless

Re: What Are You Working On? - MLB The Show 23 Edition

Finished a mini season run, they give you a voucher for every 5 wins now and I'm pretty sure they didn't do that in season 1

100% al east/nl east/al west
91% al central
84% nl central
82% nl central

Don't really want to do another mini season run and I've gotten most of the team build things reset back to 0 cept for maybe the pirates...and god the tigers suck horribly

Monday morning is usually when I get to play the most so maybe i'll start the judge program...Think i'm gonna skip this event and hoping they do something more enticing than minnie minoso for the next BR

May jump into ranked to use randy and verlander but prob not a good idea since all this weekend all I did was mini seasons on all star

Re: What Are You Working On? - MLB The Show 23 Edition

Threw a no hitter with randy in 9 in ranked. So he's still good. Won 7-0 but felt I should've hit better. Was trying to take 1st pitch of every at bat... Altho even tho my head says don't swing don't swing don't swing.... I often will swing anyway

Gonna play one more with Verlander I think and then bow out of ranked for another season lol. I'm 17-0, I guess it's kind've bush league for me to use elite Pitchers each time my rankings drop but oh well...

Think I've settled on using Roger's centre as my home park for now

Re: What Are You Working On? - MLB The Show 23 Edition

I don't think it's bush league when you have no other way to use these cards we grind for. Realistically in the lower ranks, elite pitchers get automatic quits anyway.

Won my 2nd game 5-2 but felt super sweaty

After the game I had 4 perfects and 23 good contacts... Only 2 hr and both were chipper Jones. I swear everytime I hit a Donaldson perfect it's warning track power. Using him as my backup 1b to Utley since he still has good defense in secondary

Jeter I'm at 8958 pxp so almost at p5

Ranked gets me too nervous, it's stressful... Idk why people put themselves thru this everyday lol.

18-0, 469 ranking, and scared.

Honestly true, since I've been doing team affinity this is literally the first time I've used randy and Verlander.

Re: What Are You Working On? - MLB The Show 23 Edition

Mini Minisoa and Robb Dibble for BR rewards?! That 3rd option needs to be a banger or I might just focus on other stuff. Making the rewards no-sell and making them trash like they did with this ranked season is awful. I guess they really just want people to buy stubs and rip packs for the top cards in the game.

Re: What Are You Working On? - MLB The Show 23 Edition

So I'm 12 cards away from my 2nd collection pack and i think they said there is a small program coming out this weekend so with that and topps now i should have it this weekend and im really leaning towards going with Wright . I took Randy with my first choice . I have had like 4 or 5 BR runs with Hank and i suck with him not sure why , and if i get Wright i do great so i think ill take him and put him at SS with Jeter at 2nd and Chipper or Donaldson at 3rd ...

Do yal think im making a bad choice? Should i give Hank a longer try??

I don’t have a ton of experience with either, but Hank is a push hitter which is why some people don’t like him. Everyone pitches him hard and inside. I couldn’t hit with Hank last year, so I’d probably go with Wright over him too but most people think Hank is better.

Re: What Are You Working On? - MLB The Show 23 Edition

Playing Events just to get the replay pack (check) and at least Jackie (1 win away) so I don't fall too far behind.

I was playing a World Series winner with his/her own twitch channel, and they went up 2-0 in the bottom of the 1st. Then they hit a great cutter out to go up 4-0, and proceeded to replay me to admire his/her work.

Bad decision.

I put an 8 spot up in the top of the 2nd. Stuck with it for a half inning longer and rage quit.

Please ... Don't hit replay to rub in a lead. No matter how good you are, and especially if you're quite good as this player was.

(Also, I'll never do something this cool again)

Replays are lame... I wish they'd remove them

I got to 100 points in the RS program today. It took me 136 innings. I don’t like that they took the progress for wins out of the program, but overall, it’s still faster than the program last year. I took Correa, I’m not sure I’ll ever use him outside of events, but he seemed like the best option out of the 3.

I'm at 53 currently, played 61 innings co op with my buddy, 72 innings so far in solo, and I'm a few things away from jumping to 90 after getting missions done. Already had done all the player pxp, so way ahead of schedule here for this season.

I'm thinking I'm taking The Hawk. All 3 players are just meh!
