    When I am running and the ball is hit in the air, I have no clue where it is going. I can't tell if it is a pop up to the SS or a double to the gap...I pretty much just run on anything.

    I wish we could change the camera view. It's nice to have the behind the runner view when leading off and stuff, but once the ball is in play I might as well be blindfolded.

    Also, I wish we could speed up the base running process even more. I think I play with the most patient hitters in the world. Every at bat seems to be 8 pitches and after walks and strike outs I am almost always stranded on base.

    I want to say I have like 2X as many RBI's as hits. Through 60 games, I think I have about 48 RBI's and like 22 runs or something.

    I got tired of that too, so I just started stealing if it was taking forever until I got thrown out or made it to 3rd. I figure it's "My" player, so it's all about my guy raking up stats. Turning on hurry up mode works too, it speeds it up quite a bit because it takes out the post pitch animations but you've probably done that already.

      I'm into my 2 yr stint will the M's organization as a closer....and MR...while floating around AAA now.

      i hope i did not do anything wrong...I have had 2 spring training invites and pitched both season very well 16+ saves and 1.08 era. with quite a bit of strikeouts.

      I hope to be called up soon, i hope i did not kick myself in the *** while waiting to reach all but one goal +pitch at 60 rating.

      Maybe it will make a me a better closer in MLB so I stay...well see, this is my first attempt at my player....

      Any tips would be helpful.

        I just turned up base running to 100 and steal 2nd then 3rd then home. Hate doing it because its a cheap way of playing but it gets me through a game quicker and helps boost the running xp which seems to take the longest to build all components.

          Bouta start my first my player on this game, ive been focusing on association. I'm gonna make him a centerfielder for the nats, hopefully someone who evolves into the leadoff hitter or third hitter. Ill try to keep things realistic, and not hit like 200 hrs. will post more later.

            Hitting 200 HRS is not very easy until you really build up your hitting don't think it is that easy at all.

              Who did you play in the majors.

                      I haven't really played much since the patch. Was that bug where, as a pitcher, you couldn't cover first fixed?

                        That was a huge problem for me, I haven't been playing MP as much either instead I have been playing Franchise. However if I remember right I think it was fixed. Not 100% sure though.

                              Also I just made a starting pitcher with the Angels. I've been doing really well so far through my first few starts, although I'm just 1-1.

                              I have a fastball, changeup (a really slow change at that, I kind of like that) and a 12-6 curve.

                              I'm working on improving my fastball first (both speed and control) before moving on to the other stats, like vs. right handed batters and stuff. I also increased my stamina a bit.

                                Why is the AI not giving me proper rest days? I start games after only two days of rest, and now I'm starting two games in a row!

                                Also, fun fact: the framerate problem occurs with minor league stadiums too.
