I thought the base running/ tagging issue that they addressed from 17 to 18 was still a major issue. Hopefully the more”enhanced” tagging and gunning dynamic will satisfy what I think was missing. Aside from that I think Diamond Dynasty took a step back in 18 so I’m hoping MLB The Show 19 Stubs is back into some more goal driven achievement instead of the buy and exchange system that was in place.You looks like they stated contact will matter! Eventually as a padres enthusiast now we can use Gwynn without fretting about squaring the ball up and it merely being a pop up because they don’t possess power.If I square this up with touch a single over the shortstop is fine that’s exactly what they strike.
My anxieties are they make bad fielders too bad, or eliminate power all together and homers become infrequent. However I’m a major fan of this defense trade offs. Makes me wonder since they are buy MLB 19 Stubs making a larger emphasis on fielding if this will boost or lower overalls for gamers. Instance: Alex Bregman. Defense monster, top 3 in MLB in 3rd at this time. Only an 85/86 (low diamond in 18) will they increase him up to more of this 87-88 mark because of this and the way he finished 5th in MVP votes? I’m mostly curious to see total alterations, app menus/changes & if immortals still exist since they have not revealed a diamond card art or better. So hype tho.
