Official MLB 2014 Thread: Giants win World Series in game 7

Baseball just doesn’t feel right without the Yankees. And honestly, as loathe as I am to admit it, it’s also better when Atlanta is doing well too.

I do like the Giants a lot, and the Cardinals too. But still, really, the Yankees need to be in the WS at least half the time every decade.

I don’t think they NEED to be in the WS. I think its better when a team comes out of nowhere, like the Royals.

White Sox got David Robertson from the Yankees…and Jeff Samardzija from the A’s.

South Siders have seriously bolstered their pitching line.

The A’s are getting rid of everyone.

They might just be clearing up payroll for Max Scherzer though.

I hope not.

Maybe the A’s are doing an overhaul of their roster…interesting to see what comes of it.

Cubs and Red Sox are still vying for Jon Lester…and if Cubs are able to get Lester it’s going to be an interesting season for Chicago come next year.

6 years…$155 million.
The Chicago teams are going IN at the Winter Meetings.

Now that Lester has signed, all the other pitchers should start signing soon.

MY cubbies are going for it!

Biggio (82.7%), Smoltz (82.9%), Pedro (91.1%), and The Big Unit (97.3%) going to the Hall.

Schilling not elected. Dang. Maybe next year will be the bloody sock’s year.

Waiting to see if certain names got any closer than under 40%.

Edit: Schilling 39.2% wow. Did not think he’d go that low. Still above Clemens and Bonds.

Bagwell 55.7% and Piazza 69.9%.

Double Edit: Full Results

the only thing baseball REALLY needs is the Giants back in NY

maybe the dodgers but tbh they are whatevs. ditch the shitty mets, can we trade? san francisco mets for the ny giants? please?

anyways, who in here plays mlb the show?

Have it for my PS Vita but I end up playing PSP/PS1 classics instead of my newer games. Shit is frustrating trying to get trying to get decent stats in the beginning. Last baseball game I owned before The Show was MVP Baseball 2005 so I suck at sports games now.

If you go back and buy the show pre2010 the lvl up is quite ez. After 10 they made it hard to get good. 14 HATES homeruns perfectly timed and positioned hits will be magically ground balls or lineouts. I still hit 62 last yr tho so im good. Road to the show is the best thing to happen to baseball games

Haven’t played a baseball game in forever, and I’m basically done with consoles for a while. Won a 360 so I didn’t really have a say in which console I owned last gen (free 360 > paid PS3) but the Xbox’s baseball game was not as good as Show on PS systems.

Anyone know of any good ones on PC?

it seems mlb the show 13 is on pc but no idea how to make that happen

I still have MVP Baseball 2005 on my PC.

Putting dents in lawnmowers in the batting mini-game.

MLB13 the show, I made a pitcher

“Dr. O’Neal” getting voice clips said by the announcers. Pitched a no hitter without even thinking about it.

I am terrible at baserunning. running back to 1st on basehits, tagged up easily, and getting us out of the inning. No indicators on field to see where the ball went, an arrow, picture in picture, something!

Didn’t know what I wanted for a 4th pitch, because it will make that training strikezone minigame even more frustrating, mandatory randomly making you throw them until you get a strike of the 9 zones in the strikezone-you go until you hit the pitch and cant move to a new type. Out of 20 throws. You don’t hit all 9 in 20 throws of what they choose for you to pitch 1 after the other, you don’t rank up.

since I went with the cheatin ass knuckleball after I faced a pitcher who threw exclusively that “pitch” shits never going to go where I want, but nobody is hitting one.

MLB 06 or 07 on PSP had an arcadey like homerun derby mode. Chose your all star pitcher and batter and face off, good times.

Long story short after i graduated HS (which would be the last time i ever played baseball ;-:wink: i lived in missouri in this really shitty house and all i had was a psp charger cord and mlb the show 07 (the one with david wright on the cover)

I played like 15 years of a career on that shit it was epic. The house and gf at the time werent
