Re: S & B's Directional/Classic MLB 22 Sliders

I agree I don't keep up but like a solid/accurate roster to start. I even enter long term injuries.....only cause I don't want a team to have a surplus and make a useless trade....after that though I let my own universe breathe

Yeah the Padres are a good example.

**I sent 2B Haggerty down and called up Kelenic to DH before this game. Awesome he delivered with 6th inning solo homer to give us a 1-0 lead and knock Ohtani out of the game.

Saurez is on my bench with Toro at 3B. Saurez is just so bad for me to try to hit with.

Yeah understand that. I like to start with no injuries and let them all happen within my franchise. I have Bauer on Dodgers rotation as well.

Fellas I just don’t know that the game could play any better!!! Fielder speed up to 1, and it’s playing the best game of baseball that has ever graced us.

Luis Gil is the pitching prospect I got from the Yankees. He is making his first start for the Pirates and is looking real good. I will have to check after the game for the other players name.

Did you use the suggest trade option to see that offer from the Yankees? I did the Meadows trade to Detroit using it and to my surprise the offer had Paredes on it along with some D potential SP so I went with it. The trade suggestion seems to give fair offers which is nice.

Re: S & B's Directional/Classic MLB 22 Sliders

I am 5-1 in my Mets franchise.

My latest game


Mets 2 6 0
Nationals. 1 4 1

DEGROM GETS HURT 5 PITCHES IN AND IS OUT. Petersen the lefthander comes in and pitches 7 innings giving up only one run. The Nats are up 1-0 with 2 outs in the 8th. 2B makes a error on a Lindor ground ball so he reaches base...Alonso and Cano hit back to back doubles and I lead 2-1. Bullpen holds the lead.

I haven't played as much as I would have liked but I plan to play a lot of games this week

Yeah I did. I have always used it, but have had to be careful in which trades I would use if I used any suggestions. This year seems to be working a lot better.

What are these cards" you speak of that give more errors etc? Sounds like Madden cards.

Thanks for the question. You can use a deck of cards or a card app on your phone. Before the game, you draw 3 cards (you can also pick fewer if you like). If you draw a card that has the value of raise HUM CON +1 then you would raise your contact up. And then repeat. Sometimes the 2nd card is the opposite of the first card where you bring it back down. So your changes are your sliders for that one game. And then the next game you’ll pick new cards.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Playing game three of Twins series and forgot l about doing this. Well I may regret it now cause for this game I am -1 HUM contact and -1 HUM pitcher consistency. +1 OF throw error too. This game could be rough. I already strikeout enough lol

Re: S & B's Directional/Classic MLB 22 Sliders

I think that the latest slider updates have nailed the gameplay perfectly.
The infield play and the baserunning is on point.
There is nothing in the gameplay that noticeable as being OP or as lacking.
Players are playing true to the ratings that they have.

For those using these.. what are your thoughts and impressions about pitcher stamina? I am starting to notice as I get into my season that RP stamina at 8 could be too high. Going to start playing with it at 5 and see how it goes for a while into the season. The cpu does a great job not using the same RP every game now. You always hear Boog say stuff like how he hasn't pitched in 2, 3,or 4 days. So I think with a lower stamina it will work out well.

Also thinking that SP stamina at 5 could use a bump up to 6. At 5 the cpu pitcher is out of gas by 6th inning like every game. Not the hugest worry but the cpu is leaving them in with that cause they're pitching a gem. Then they give up hits and runs before finally taken out. I really like the hook at 5 for the SP Then 10 for the bullpen. It is working perfectly imo so don't want to raise that. I'm not sure if raising hook to 6 or 7 would work or not either. It could cause another problem we don't want.

So I'm gonna raise SP stamina to 6 and lower RP stamina to 5 for a while and see how it goes. Last year we had hook at 2 for SP and it worked great so they definitely fine tuned it a lot this year for the better.
