I may try starting up RTTS later today or tonight after I've gotten a couple games in to get used to the controls.
Sounds good! Enjoy!Quote:

That same game, I injure my knee and am out 60 days :fp:
I started RTTS, but I'm still going through the Showcase. I did it once, got drafted as the first pick in the fourth round by the Astros. Unfortunately, the Astros organization just doesn't interest me that much, so I chose to go back to school to a 2 year Junior College. I just played the first game of my second time in the Showcase. Gonna finish up the last two games here shortly.
:D Should have spent more time weight training and doing various calisthenics instead of schmoozing the babes.Quote:

My second go around in the Showcase, I was able to do good enough to make it into the 2nd round of the draft. Ended up getting, somehow miraculously getting drafted in the 11th pick by none other than the Colorado Rockies. I was watching the picks be made, some of the teams, I wouldn't have minded getting picked by the White Sox, Blue Jays or Mariners, but it ended up being the Rockies to take me in the draft with the 11th pick of the second round.
Probably a good thing too because the next couple teams after the Rockies were the Padres, Giants, Angels, Diamondbacks and Orioles, none of which I would have been particularly excited to play for. I still had the option of going back to school at a 1 or 2 year university, take another shot at trying to be a first round pick, but with no guarantee that I'd end up with the Rockies, nor a team that I'd prefer to play for vs. others teams that I have no desire to play for, best to jump into the Rockies organization at age 20.
Even though I missed a total of around 80 games due to injury this first season in RTTS, I was called up to AAA Columbus due to an injury. I've played SS my entire MiLB career, but will be playing 3B in AAA because one of the best prospects in the game Lindor is at SS.
playing on rookie settings helps in getting trophies LOL
but you still have to play a full game
If that works, I'm doing that every game when I start my RTTS as a pitcher for my off days :up:Quote:

I like that I can only play the plays that my player is involved in, allowing me to get through a game in about 15 min depending on how many at bats I get.
Re started my RRTS last night with speedy CF Ari Yap. Drafted in the 3rd to the Astros and first AB in AA was a 2 run inside the park HR. Gonna set up a twitch account and stream a little tonight if anyone is interested.
Yap is tearing it up in may. Moved from cf to LF because I was DHing a lot. Hitting roughly .350 with 4 hrs. Had my first 5-5 game last night and also had two bombs in one game. Hope to get called up soon
More people need to play this
I'm about 80-90 games into my 1st year. I'm in AAA (New Orleans/Marlins) as a 2B and am hitting between .320 and .330. In a slump right now after getting the average up over .333 mostly due to a an AWFUL series against Memphis. I think I went like 0-15 :smh:
Think I'm going to get back on the horn with my RTTS this weekend.
4 games series with Tennessee Yap had 4 bombs. Hitting .397 with 6 hrs 29 rbis on the year. Still early about 30 games in. And just moved to dynamic batting been on veteran
My slump continued last night. At the end of July I'm now hitting like .295 (after hitting .333 to begin the month). I'm on Dynamic hitting and its currently set at like All-Star+ but the pitchers are painting corners and even when I hit the ball hard it goes right at someone. :smh:
Well broke out of my slump in AAA and got back up to like .310 before getting called up to the Miami Marlins at the end of year 1. Played in 3 games and got my 1st MLB hit then proceed to tear my hamstring like Altidore and get put on the 60 day DL to end the season. About to start year 2 as the projected starter at 2B in Miami. Man I need to get traded. :nod:
Hit a HR in my first AAA game then proceeded to go 0fer the next 2 games. Got back to hitting pretty good and hit another HR.
I'm tearing it up in spring training. I'm hitting like .350 but the difficulty has now cranked up to HOF+. :smh: I might try to find some sliders b/c with HOF the pitches are ALL right on the line between being a ball and a strike.
Broadcasting my RTTS pitcher. AAA.
Texaco_tea
AAA has been tough for Yap...only been DHing and hitting around .240 ish with 5hrs. A lot of strikeouts as im a free swinger, the dynamic setting has increased and decreased a good bit here in the past couple days because of the streaky hitting.
Yeah I could use some good RTTS sliders. I'm in the show and am hitting like .280 on HOF+
Started a franchise with the bravos. Couldn't find steelerfans slider so rolled with the most DL'D. Rough start for the Braves. Swept at milwakue. Get beat 2of 3 vs the Nats and now 0-2 vs the Mets in the home opener. Last night in game 2 of the Mets series Beechy takes a no hitter to the 8th and gives up a long ball on 2-3 count to the pinch hitter. Smh.
Can't string any hits together at all and very spuratic. I am using quick counts which I love and just free swing a lot during ABs.
My sliders are under my PSN steelerfan1933.
I am 80 games in now. After next game, I plan to do a midseason report.
As much as I would love to, I just don't have the time for a full season dynasty on The Show. That's why RTTS is so great, I'm already in season two and I don't play every day.
But one thing I might try is doing a managing / GM type of deal.
"RIGHT NOW" I'm enjoying the franchise more than RTTS
I think if I take a fantasy baseball like approach to running a team, I'd probably get into it. I love the stats and structure of the game. I may give this a try next week sometime.
Bout to stream some franchise. Come see how bad we are at hitting
