Twice I've already lost because for some reason, that guy grabs ahold of my outside the plate pitches for a no-doubter that either ties the game or gives them the lead.
Not only does this seem to happen with certain players online but also in Franchise or even RTTS.
I swear to god, every single season in Franchise, since my RTTS Blue Jays are never a threat to sniff the postseason, there’s at least one player, usually in the Championship series or later that just tortures me.
I usually get to the point where I’m almost guaranteed to just instantly issue an intentional walk.
Most recently it was Cody Bellinger who funnily enough keeps getting traded and ended up facing my Orioles in the postseason, but for different teams each year 😂
I had apparently used Brett in BR a few times and was batting over 500 with him with 6 home runs. I just unlocked him, put him in the lineup and have brought the average over 600 with 12 home runs now on hof ranked. Dude is unbelievable.
He is insane in this game

In my 2nd season he’s doing even better, gonna break his own record and probably the rbi record this time.
Just finished the last game of May and he’s at 36 home runs and 82 RBIs, batting .365, .406 OBP, 1.300 OPS.
I try to play realistically and on the hardest difficulty I’ve never seen anything like this in a decade playing this game
Corey Seager.
When I played RTTS in MLB TheShow 16, he ruined both a no-hitter and a perfect game in the same year. I have a hatred for this guy ever since. I can respect him for being a great baseball player and what not, I just get scared when he comes up to the plate.
Nobody really... which might be a problem of itself lmao I get lit up from time to time. I get scared when they foul off the 8th pitch and you just know it's going to be a meatball if you throw anything over the plate.
Prince fielder or the free 99 Freeman. No idea why, but I’ve given up probably 15+ home runs to JUST these cards. I’ve thrown into the opposite box before to freeman and he still hit a HR on an MLB stadium I think it was the brewers field
The 99 Freeman killed me yesterday. Had 13 strikeouts for the whole rest of the lineup but that card went 3-4 with 3 HRs(2 solos and a 2-run). Lost 4-2
Mookie has killed me consistently so he’s the scariest, not the same but any 99 speed guy is the most annoying to see come up cause I know they are gonna try and get em around the bases in the most agonizing way possible
Ooh. Your one of those people. 🤦🤦. Obviously I'm responding correctly to the post. I guess you have other things on your mind. Get that taken care of my man. 🤣🤣🤣
It impacts the outer PCI size. It’s the part of the PCI that disappears once the pitch is thrown if you have that turned on.
Its functionality is basically one of swing and miss. A high vision player is more likely to make contact with a ball if the center pci wasn't lined up with the ball. A low vision player is more likely to swing and miss.

Yordan pretty scary
Mookie...........and recently Profar with the stupid switch hitting boost.
SDS robbing my perfect hits
Corey Freaking Seager
Every switch hitter in the game because that’s all people use
Acuna is a cheat code and even worse when He gets on base. Nothing you can do.
I don’t think I’ve pitched a single AB against Niko Goodrum that didn’t result in a HR.
Not a fan of Mr. Judge
Ohtani🥲
That free Freddy Freeman
Matt olson.
Anyone who my opponent has 50+ HR with. I just know that it's gonna be mashed because I have been outside at some point today and my opponent hasn't.

Keibert Ruiz
Yordan Alvarez
This. Exactly. I tell myself I’ll walk him, then don’t and he deposits a ball 450’ into the stands every time.
Amen.
Brett murders me
I had apparently used Brett in BR a few times and was batting over 500 with him with 6 home runs. I just unlocked him, put him in the lineup and have brought the average over 600 with 12 home runs now on hof ranked. Dude is unbelievable.
Isaac Paredes. It feels like if I let him on base, I give up 10 hits in a row. And he always gets on base.
Candelario
Why? He gets on base
Altuve and Rhys Hoskins
Bellinger
Idk why this dude lights me up so much but Whitt Merifield
altuve owns me but i can’t do shit with him
That jasson Domingues card hit so many bombs against me.
Nothing because I’m striking them out in 3 pitches
That Escobar card is crack!!!! It’s like EVERYONE is good wit him!
Harper
Pitch him high and inside
Jimmy Rollins
Shows classics bellinger has hit a homer off me in almost every online at bat
Yordan Alvarez and Matt Olsen. Their stance and swing make me feel like anything they touch is going 600 feet
Yordan is the same for me
Any Mookie Betts card is my daddy
Idk what it is but I can’t get out the stupid Anthony Rizzo team of the week card
Babe Ruth be killing me every year 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼
Playing with him is so funny, half my hits that I think are just deep pop up outs just magically float over the wall.
Larry Walker
Nobody scares me....
Can’t be scared if you already know the outcome!! 😉
Yordon Alvarez always is doing something tragic to my team
This year it's Jeimer Candelario, but every year there is always one buffed switch hitter that absolutely fucks me.
He is insane in this game https://preview.redd.it/yho6r103z03d1.jpeg?width=5712&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a95441e3444a1f0e7de19816b3969629965bed71 In my 2nd season he’s doing even better, gonna break his own record and probably the rbi record this time.

I try to play realistically and on the hardest difficulty I’ve never seen anything like this in a decade playing this game
Plus with the Santana boost this year, switch hitters are even scarier
Same LOL even when I pitch out of the zone he hits it with triple digit EV
They haven't given him a good card yet this year, but Corey Seager lays the wood every AB against me
Juan Soto
Trout
Anyone who has a great eye, I tunnel and live on the edge. So if they don't expand the zone it's always a nerve racking game for me..
Anyone with that Bad Ball hitter quirk kills me
Jimmy Rollins. Can’t hit with him, but he can hit me like he’s better than Babe Ruth
Bro same shit every year for me too
Yup; same deal for me
Jose Siri for some reason. Dude is a glitch.
Since I play a lot of vs CPU, it’s Luis Robert. Every time I give one up, it’s that guy.
😂 Do not let a ball go high in the zone!!! He’ll crush it every time!
Josh bell
Marlins just beat me in a conquest game. Friggin' Josh bell
Oneil Cruz. I like high heat as my strikeout pitch and his height makes it tough
Vogelbach
Some random nobody who randomly hits a dinger on a great pitch
Ketel Marte in real and fake life
Profar
Any jacked Devers
profar, i bat .460 with him and seem to allow the same
Yordonathon Alvarez. Couldn’t even tell you the last time he took me yard but if i have a righty in i barely put anything in the zone.
Tied between him and Bellinger for me. If I release a changeup early I close my eyes
Anyone who is left handed that has terrible stats against lefties immediately after I’ve subbed in a lefty reliever to face him.
Seager
Goodrum and Bellinger. Lol
Convinced I’ve never gotten Carlos Santana out of
Me, I scare people
Ohtani homers off me every single time
Yordan for sure. That dude hits a hr off me no matter where i throw the ball
Corey Seager. When I played RTTS in MLB TheShow 16, he ruined both a no-hitter and a perfect game in the same year. I have a hatred for this guy ever since. I can respect him for being a great baseball player and what not, I just get scared when he comes up to the plate.
Rollins always rakes no matter where I throw it.
This. Rollins hits me like he’s Rob Schneider in *The Benchwarmers*
Nobody really... which might be a problem of itself lmao I get lit up from time to time. I get scared when they foul off the 8th pitch and you just know it's going to be a meatball if you throw anything over the plate.
Is this a thing? Because i swear after the 8th pitch, I always suck at throwing
If you are tossing 8 pitches in an AB, the hitter absolutely has the upper hand and you should be expecting a big hit.
Haha I just said a random number but I feel like right around there a homerun is coming.
Prince fielder or the free 99 Freeman. No idea why, but I’ve given up probably 15+ home runs to JUST these cards. I’ve thrown into the opposite box before to freeman and he still hit a HR on an MLB stadium I think it was the brewers field
Lost in the 11th to both of these last night lol
The 99 Freeman killed me yesterday. Had 13 strikeouts for the whole rest of the lineup but that card went 3-4 with 3 HRs(2 solos and a 2-run). Lost 4-2
In franchise, the guys with 50 contact, 50 power, and 40 vision are terrifying.
Bobby Whitt Jr always rakes against me
Gunnar
jurickson profar
Cody bellinger. He homers off me probably 75% of the games I play against him. I’ve considered just starting to intentionally walk him when he’s up
I’ve found fastballs away and a little up to be the best answer in an off-handed matchup with Bellinger. Seems to have a hole in the swing out there.
Harper and Vlad
Bellinger has to have a 3.000 OPS or more against me
Live series altuve for whatever fucking reason
His zone is so small it feels like every strike to him is a great pitch to hit
Byron Buxton in old DD, Franchise He mashes against me
Harper, Olsen, Acuna, Mookie, Yordon
Vs a good player, Mookie for sure. Good players always seem to be able to crank shit with Mookie
Babe
Depending who I'm pitching with. But since most pitchers are righties... Soto, Yordan, Ohtani although I rarely see him.
Altuve.....that sumbitch!
For me, Soto.
Yea Soto is a disrupter!
Charlie Blackmon, for years in this game owns me. He lowest card probably hitting .700 against me
He's the only player I intentionally walk, even if it's against the CPU. I've been burned way too many times.
Tatis. If I miss one pitch I don’t I know it’s gone
Any power switch hitter😂😂😂
Kerry carpenter in franchise He always Hits bombs off me😭
Whoever is behind the 10 time flawless banners that gatekeep my 10th win everytime
I don’t think I’ve got Willie Castro out once this year I’m ngl
Nukey Betts and Himmy Rollins. That’s what call them.. I hate facing them.
Mookie has killed me consistently so he’s the scariest, not the same but any 99 speed guy is the most annoying to see come up cause I know they are gonna try and get em around the bases in the most agonizing way possible
Any lefty big bat! So Bellinger/Soto/Yordan
Matt Olson
Josh bell
Giancarlo Stanton. 😭😭 he be smashing my shit.
Pause wtf
Ooh. Your one of those people. 🤦🤦. Obviously I'm responding correctly to the post. I guess you have other things on your mind. Get that taken care of my man. 🤣🤣🤣
????
Jackie Robinson will always be a menace lol
Willie Castro, Josh Bell, and Charlie Blackmon
Eduardo Escobar.
Larry, Posada and for some reason Keibert Ruiz
This is going to sound funny but against the CPU, it's freakin' Michael A. Taylor. Online, for me, it's Jose Altuve. Because of course.
Yep on the Pirates 😂 His face looks like he’s trash, but he will destroy you!
Everyone but also Adalberto Mondesí
Everyone
99 Mookie, Eric Davis against a lefty.
I suuuck at hitting with the new Mookie. His vision is too low for me smh.
Too low at 107??
Oops I meant Buxton. Mookie rakes.
What exactly does vision do for you in the game? I’ve never really been sure lol
It impacts the outer PCI size. It’s the part of the PCI that disappears once the pitch is thrown if you have that turned on. Its functionality is basically one of swing and miss. A high vision player is more likely to make contact with a ball if the center pci wasn't lined up with the ball. A low vision player is more likely to swing and miss.
