The weird thing is that he was told that he wasnt ready to move up even tho he was in the majors already. Also noticed that he is no longer on the depth chart. Used to be second behind Will Middlebrooks, now, he is no where to be found...now starting at SS because he got hurt.

        So after going and looking at the stats on All-Star it looks like everything is pretty realistic. My .444 batting avg leads the league and I am second in RBI with 16 and in stolen bases with 5. I also lead in hits with 24. I am 17 games into the season so everything looks good to me

          I'm horrible at baserunning. I'm having trouble when my player is rounding first or second and heading to the next base and then I'll stop and run back.

              I hate how teams put a 19 y/o on bench. Either start him or let him develop in the minors

                  The amount of training points you get is indicative of how well you do in game at the plate, bases (SB, Doubles, Triples) and on field. also get other points for 5, 10, 15 etc of game hitting streaks, season milestones, personal acheviements such as first AA, AAA, MLB hit or home run (or both.) Of course setting the difficulty to rookie and smashing the ball you'll definitely get more training points as you'll pretty much be hammering the ball out of the park or get mostly doubles.

                      What? Thought they fixed that with the improved baserunning being only holding up or down with the left thumb stick to continue forward or go back. Tis all I do and my guy does what I want'em to. o_O

                        Hello, long time RTTS grinder here... have a question about asking for a trade (never really had to do this in the past).

                        Any strategy/timing in order to make this interaction effective? Or is it mainly useless?

                        I created a 3B and was drafted by the Braves... I thought this was great since Chipper retired and they are thin there. But I was traded to the Tigers for some reason and I'm stuck behind Miguel Cabrera now!

                        I'm in late June of my 2nd season (2014), hitting fairly well (.290-.310 on legend) and I've grinded my guy up to a 77 OVR. Part of me likes the fact that I'm stick here but after I'm done this season I know my guy will be ready for the show and I'm super worried I'll end up MLB bench and just spot start at the other IF positions.

                        Anyways... do I ask for a trade now? Or wait until July when it's deadline season.... thanks in advance for any insights

                          I believe if you fail goals twice they'll be more willing to trade you, least this worked in MLB 11, never tried in 12 and haven't really seen a reason to yet in 13. Might also have something to do with how well the team is performing, least that's what I heard over the years.

                            Thanks... I'm going to lose my mind if I get called up to the Show, meet my goals and then suddenly I'm starting 3B and Miggy is benched. I remember something stupid like this happen to one of my RTTS guys in the Show 09.

                              I've always wondered if the game would use your RttS player at DH if you didn't specifically have that as your second option for position.
