Ha.

True baseball has the pitcher hitting. This "superior league" nonsense is silly.

Even I would vote to get rid of the DH.......
Even though I love an AL team the NL will be superior, baseball purity wise, until the AL drops the DH.

Hey Guys ! , I usually do not post on the board , but I do keep up with all the great information you guys provide in your threads and the variety of topics covered on this website. That being said , MLB The Show has evolved as THE GAME to have if you are a baseball fan and a gamer , I love it , period. But , there is a But! , there are two things that I'd like to be implimented more than anything , and that is the ability to grade players myself...A,B,C,D,F___ and the ability to cut and release players-Example-if said player is a free agent , better yet , if there is 345 free agents , I want to be able to cut and release these players to no end. Not swap out with a player in the free agent pool. It is my hope that someone in the know could get an answer on whether this is in this years game or in the plans for MLB The Show in the future . I think these two things are a must change for this game , just my opinion though. I just felt this had to be brought up , if not for now , at least for future releases of this game. Because it is a great game, but it fails in the abilty to do with your players as you wish. I hope this doesn't come off as harsh, because I love the game. THANKS!

Well you can always cut a guy, without having to pick someone up off the
FA list. I do it all the time in my franchises.
If you mean while building a roster...that's not going to change. They want the roster integrity to remain AT LEAST on the base level.
This year...while not actually having the ability to edit potentials of players, you can swap out any player on the roster for any other player(of any potential).....While this doesn't help you if you want a "real" Ike Davis, who might be a B on your roster but you think he should be an A....if you need to have a "real" Ike Davis...but if you took a generated A player...edited him into Ike Davis and then swapped him out, you'd be in business.

I agree. True "strategic" baseball anyway.

Your question will get answered much better here, and likely already has.

I'm aware that a thread exists with over 100 pages in it. Rather than sort through a bunch of stuff I have no interest in, I was hoping for an answer to my question.

Re: Was manage mode fixed in the 2011 version?

Sorry bud, please use the thread suggested. You can open the thread and then do a search for specific terms, if you don't want to try to just scan each page and find it (which is daunting and would take forever)...thanks.

Not when you're team is built around using the DH. I mean, I'll be the first to say that the San Francisco Giants are the World Champions, but when you have a team that nobody cares about have a season so wacky and fun like the Texas Rangers just did, you never want to erase something so special. Think about it:

A team that is bankrupt, borrowing money from MLB to stay afloat.
A team that has been relatively nothing in its fifty year history.
A team that is the black sheep of the American League finally getting recognition.
Our coach confessed to using cocaine in the previous season yet still keeping his job. Eleven walk-offs including a walk-off hit by pitch and a walk-off strikeout. Fans falling out of stands, Greenberg/Ryan getting approval to buy the team from the judge at the exact time Michael Young hits a grand slam, Bengie freaking Molina hitting a cycle that included a grand slam, winning the first playoff series in franchise history, the first American League championship.
The sweetest moment: Neftali Feliz striking out the man who started Texas' ten year journey through the desert.

No, I don't want to redo that season.

BTW Knight, I respect what you do in this community, but do you mind not taking my quote and rewording it like that. I'd appreciate it.

sound question.....how long will crowd cheers/jeers clips be?....i think last year was 15?

Re: MLB 11 The Show Community Day Discussion Thread - Questions, Answers etc.

Quick question. Is the pickoff system still the same as last year. If we choose analog pitching are we still going to use the face buttons to throw to the bases to attempt a pickoff or will it be the right stick? Thanks.

Did they tone it down a little, I was very annoyed that the pickoff slider had little effect...did they do basestealing so that the animation and the call and the replay match up?

i.e. dude looks safe as hell, and is call out?
