    Re: MLB 13 The Show: Road to the Show Thread

    I'm an 18 year old 3B in the phillies organization. Name is jordan Gibson, the great grandson of negro leagues legend josh Gibson. (I like putting story lines like that into my career modes lol). Hit .424 in my first advancement period in AA and shattered my goals, prompting me to be called up to AAA, maybe I could use a difficulty boost O.O

      Made it through AA and AAA in my first season with the Marlins organization.

      6'2" 225lb CF/LF

      2013 AA - .352 Avg, 29 HR, 67 RBI
      2013 AAA - .329 Avg, 18 HR, 42 RBI
      2014 MLB - .529 Avg. 3 HR, 8 RBI

      Currently frustrated with the manager as my first MLB at bat resulted in a pinch hit double.

      My first start resulted in a 4-5 game with my first HR being a 444 FT shot in Wrigley off of Edwin Jackson that went out of the park over the Left Center bleachers...

      For some reason I am still subbing in but I think with us being 10-3 on the season they will see the light soon enough!

        I'm a RF for New Britain. Tearing up AA in my rookie year, leading the league in AVG and HR (but barely in both categories). Already have the best overall of anyone in the Twins system. Yet I still can't seem get to AAA, keep getting told there's no room on the roster for me, even though Rochester is carrying 15 pitchers and only 10 position players. Huh?

        At least my team is dominating our league and will be in the AA playoffs.

          Can we turn down the crowd volume? it's just too loud i can't hear the PA or commentators between my pitches

          I got called up and put in the rotation right away because of a 6month injury to one of our pitchers ( Twins )

            I think so, go to audio/video in the options menu and "Crowd Volume" should be there.

                Yeah, I had to do the same thing because I needed the stadium music to be VERY LOUD so I could hear my custom chants "DETROIT SUCK! DETROIT SUCKS!" and my intro song "Thrift Shop".

                  I was hitting over .400 in AA. Got called up in within second week of season. Was immediately on bench. Hitting over .300. Rated 15 OVR higher than any starter in outfield and its the Cubs. they're terrible. half if the team is on a cold streak. Never would happen in a million years.
                  This mode is dependent more so on your Advancement Goals regardless of being in the top 50 prospects and your stats during the season. Being on the bench after a call up is the norm in RTTS anyway and has been since The Show started in 06. "Realism" aside the system is in place so you have something to work toward and not just tear it up, get called up and be a starter based on your stats. However I will say that sometimes the adv. goals over-reach the actual ability of your player especially when in the bench role.

                    Well damn I probably got called up because I hit my advancement goal. I earned the Top 50 badge once I was called up. Either way it's terrible logic. 1) top 50 prospects don't get benched. 2) if I'm on the bench then don't hand out a top 50 icon. Simple. It's so far from realistic and not worth debating to death.

                      So, I was a pitcher. I got promoted to AAA after 6 starts, and had to do a training thing. Passed it, and checked my new goals. Well, no matter what now, if I try to back out of the goals, my game and system freezes. And my save loads up at that screen. So, a waste of time the past couple of days. Screw this mode.

                        I hate when you dominate on the mound and your team gets 2 hits the entire game...

                            shortstop drafted by the cubs, i got called up to triple A in may. i've maintained about a .300 average with just a few homeruns but i'm stealing a ton of bases. i want my player to be another ricky henderson that steals 100 bases per year in the majors.

                            i'm in a super utility role on triple a so i'm not starting but they are playing me at pretty much every infield position usually 5 games per week so i'm happy.

                                I made a big, bruising LF in the Giants organization named Kenny Powers. And yes...I know he's a pitcher. And yes....I made him with cornrows.

                                I got called up to AAA after only 7 games into my first season in AA. I had 3 HR's and a .438 avg after 7 games and a guy in AAA ball fractured his head! Opened a roster spot. I'm currently hitting .382 in AAA ball after a month and have 9 HR's and 27 RBI. I'm hoping to steal Gregor Blanco's spot soon.
