Luckily, I got drafted by Pirates (probably my least liked team of all), so I think I'll just restart and try to be a pitcher this year, never even attempted it before. I just don't want to be like all you guys :-P

well this my first time playing RTTS and I thought about Center field as well but I played practice mode with Dexter FOlwer. it looked tough

but another reason I picked SS is because I always think it's the most important or dynamic position and the action with double plays and getting balls to your left or right... but also because Ozzie Smith is my favorite player of all time. I picked his batting stance

My plan was thinking I could develop into a good SS and get on the Cards with them moving Diaz to 3B after Peralta is done

My original player in RTTS way back was a second baseman.
I then went through several different first basemen.
My main character now is a Center fielder
I also have a Starting Pitcher


So when starting a new character the choice boiled down to SS or 3B (does anyone even contemplate a catcher). SS seemed like the more interesting option. I am thinking of deleting and starting over though now that I understand that you can still pick a team. I'd like to maybe spend some time as a Boston or Baltimore player and spend more time in the AL east parks.

I tried a C once. I could barely make it through 1 game.

A couple of photos of beautiful Busch Stadium from my RTTS MLB 16 player my ( Cardinals ) 1st baseman I moved over to MLB 17.

So if I am really unhappy with playing as a catcher will I get a chance to change at some point or am I out of luck? It sounded cool on paper, but man, kind of tedious,

So I'm almost done April. Numbers looking pretty good so far. For those that curious how I play RTTS....it's all about me and seeing what kinda crazy stats i can put up. So my sliders are cranked way up hahaha!

If you use your MLB 16 RTTS player, does the equipment carry over into MLB 17 or just the attributes of the player?
