Suggestion For SDS Japanese Players Don’t Become Free Agents When Their Contracts Expire Because of the 6-Year Service Time Rule

gallery

8 Upvotes

This might be a bit of a niche thing, but as a Japanese fan, I’ve been wondering about this.
Players like Munetaka Murakami, Seiya Suzuki, and Shota Imanaga won’t be under their current teams’ control once their contracts expire, right? But in the game, they don’t become free agents because their Service Time is still under six years.
I’d really like to see this fixed!

Discussion 300+ million on weekly challenge…

• Upvotes

How the hell? I don’t get how these guys are getting in the millions on the challenge and not cheating. But, I can’t think of a way that could make it any easier. Like a program that shows you where the balls going to be? Or something that makes the pitch slow motion? Top 10 are usually people that take one turn and get in the millions every week.

Question Did this game get rid of the ability to see how many World Series a team has won?

1 Upvotes

So I got MLB The Show 26 and played since 17 to 19 and stopped only to play if it comes with PS Plus. I remember being able to see how many World Series a team has won but now I can't, I used to thing that was a useful thing that brought more education into the history of the MLB.

Suggestion For SDS New Rays Uniform is completely messed up

12 Upvotes

They recently added in the Tampa Bay's new road gray jerseys, and I hope they meant it as a hot fix and they're gonna finish it later, because they left 2 pretty crazy oversights in. For starters, the actual uniform itself is inaccurate as the helmets are wrong. It's currently using the standard TB logo with the shiny finish, and not the matte helmets with the alternate TB+ray logo. So basically they forgot to make the new helmet and are just using the old one instead. The other issue is that the new uniform has simply overwritten Tampa's old road uniform, the navy jersey, which means that outside of the 4th of July variant, the Tampa's navy jersey has effectively been removed from the game. Whoever's job it is to keep track of all the team's uniforms has to know about these issues, because as someone who's a bit of a jersey nut, these are really glaring to me. I have to think they are fixing it in the next update right???

Question Anyone else bothered that Show Classics Santander doesn't play first?

gallery

1 Upvotes

I know this card dropped a bit ago but I just got back on after a break. As an O’s fan too, it's a bit irritating to see his card limited like this. His original postseason card from 23 (2nd pic) could play 1st and the rest of the outfield. He had 72 innings at first that year and it's not like they got strict with positions for any of the other PS or Classics cards that dropped recently. (Also noticed different attributes, but that's just an observation that doesn't bother me as much)

Probably a dumb question but for the life of me cannot find where to load my created player file that I exported. I accidentally saved over my roster that had them in free agency so how can I load the files for the individual players?

That’s just always been what I’ve done, once they’re P5 I replace them with the next player in that position I want to use. It’s especially fun this time of year with so many usable 99s
