Sorry for the bad screenshot but is this is the best hitter ive ever seen on the game. Has anyone seen better before?

Some of you may remember (Johnny Hernandez)[https://www.reddit.com/r/OOTP/comments/1vrbrg2/when_you_traded_away_the_greatest_player_in_a/]. He is easily the greatest baseball player of all time in my OOTP save, who I traded away when he was young for a guy who helped us win three World Series. I took your guy's advice and kept an eye on him, hoping that he would become available. Well lo and behold Johnny never got a ring with Baltimore. He opted out of his contract around age 29 and I scooped him back up.

It has been five years since our last ring, four of which with Johnny. My usual World Series winning team has been doing an impression of the Tampa Bay Lightning pre 2020. Consistently the best regular season team (including a 123-win season) only to fall apart in the first round of every playoff, the whole time Johnny Baseball has been non existent. The consistent 9.5 WAR a season player goes silent every year. Some say he is a choker. Others say he is cursed.

Well this year we make the playoffs again, with the best team in baseball again. We brush aside the Nashville expansion team in the Divisional round before getting into an absolute dog fight of a series against the A's. Johnny is contributing but not nearly to his regular season standards. We were down three games to one before fighting back to force a Game 6. It's the bottom of the ninth, down by three, one out and bases loaded. Our slumping second baseman, with a post-season BA around .210 at this point, comes up to bat.

And hits a 549 FOOT GRAND SLAM OVER THE MONSTER TO WALK IT OFF.

Game 7. Down by one going into the bottom of the 9th. Fly-out, catcher who is hitting .168 hits a double (I went with vibes and put him in to pinch hit), same second baseman doubles to tie, my backup shortstop who is only in because my starter is hurt...

WALK OFF BASE HIT into the triangle.

We then swept the World Series including a walk off three run shot over the monster AGAIN (this time from our third baseman) in Game 3.

Johnny finally got his ring.

Except he wasn't the best player on the team.

He wasn't even the best Johnny on the team.

I started playing my backup center fielder because he was a nasty defensive outfielder and my usual one was fielding terribly and hitting for a 73 OPS+. I figured, "fuck it. If I'm not going to get any offensive support out of center I might as well have some form of defense." Well enter, Johnny Luna. He comes in off the bench in the middle of the ALCS and starts during the World Series. He finishes the post season batting lead off with a slash line of .523/.566/.647.

And a World Series MVP.

Edit: can't get the link to work. Sorry about that,

No words, this is crazy.

Has anyone else seen this before and if you have, has it worked out for you. Im very curious on why hes there with a $2,000,000 contract and decent stats

1. Modern
   
2. Historical
   
3. Random Debut
   
4. Fictional
   LMK IF YOU WOULD BE INTERESTED !

Hey all, so I am finding it frustrating that when playing out games or watching games, the game always starts on one pitch mode, even though the button is clearly set to pitch by pitch mode. Every time I start a game, I have to press the toggle several times to actually get the game to play in pitch by pitch mode.

Was looking through the settings trying to see if I can just set it to where games are always played out in pitch by pitch mode, but couldn’t find anything like that.

Anyone know of how to do this?

Anyone know why the toggle doesn’t actually work and never starts in pitch by pitch mode, even though that is what the toggle says the game mode is on? Is there a trick or something that I am missing that overrides the toggle?

Thanks in advance

We were up 12-0 in the third, definitely thanks to his grand slam. The team also bat around the order in the first. He's projected to hit 38 grand slams this season, I'd watch out if you were the other PCL teams. I'm very proud of him, he looks to have a good future ahead of him.

Recent call-up Ty Wigginton continues to have a hot bat for the Mets offense.

The leaderboard under team history will show the top 10 for some stats, but Id like to see a full list.

I tried sorting mlb players by team, but the team filter I couldnt figure out.

Thanks this would be great
