Baseball game?

Haven't played the Show for this year yet, seeing as I don't have a PS3 yet. 2K10 is pretty fun this year though. I've been surprised. The Show is probably the better simulator, but I'm no baseball expert, and 2K10 has me hooked right now.

The presentation and commentary on the stats and stuff is great. Doing a franchise with the Braves, and it's excellent that they recognize what my stats are for the series, how I played the previous night, etc.

So many situational stats with good analysis by the commentators. Baseball is just so stat driven that it's great in this game.

Again, not saying the Show isn't great. I'm sure it's probably better. But if you are aching for a baseball game, or just curious about what else is out there, 2K10 is definitely not a bad rent IMO.

My final verdict on 2K: Pitching is way too easy, hitting is way too hard.

Every game I played, no matter who was pitching... had a legendary day. And every game was like 0-0 or 1-1 going into extra innings. I had several 15 hit games with no runs.

Just stupid. Sent it back. GL next year 2K.

PS: The World Series really sucked in 2K. I expect more from 2K games in that dept. The commentary just gets stale overall.

They know who I've played against and what I did, etc etc. Until you're in a wildcard play-in game and they never even mention what's going on. Killed my buzz for sure.

      Statistical reasons to Scratch Ickey from returning as a LT--Even in 2027

      I agree.  He is solid. Another player I think is underrated and with good reason (I will explain): Monroe Freeling UGA Many have him the fifth-rated OT, but I would put him at 2 or 3.  Reason?  He played the season with an ankle issue and still kicked arse.  Here is a write-up that describes him--the injury, in my view, has him rated lower than if healthy all season. OT Monroe Freeling Georgia | 6'7" | 315 lbs Ht:6'7" Wt:315 lbs Class:JR Age:21 (25-Jul-2004) Monroe Freeling earned Second-Team All-SEC honors from league coaches for his performance during the 2025 season. Starting 12 of 13 games, he was twice named SEC Offensive Lineman of the Week after dominant showings against Auburn and Texas, notably grading out at 80 percent with zero pressures allowed against the Longhorns. During the 2025 season, he managed a nagging ankle injury suffered against Kentucky but remained a cornerstone for an offense that ranked first nationally in fourth-down conversions. As a draft prospect, he is recognized for his exceptional reach, mobility in pass protection, and "road-grading" power in the running game. While he has proven to be a reliable starter at left tackle, he also offers significant versatility having started at multiple positions along the line during the 2024 season. Here are some others I like (mostly developmental, but we have at least a year--we hope--at RT)   Your boy: The Panthers were looking at Barber at the SR Bowl practices, I believe.  Good run blocker--needs work in pass pro.  A RT candidate? Shelton would be an ideal swing OT. I really like Bowry.  Footwork is huge for a T, and we do a lot of zone blocking.

      We could/should re-sign BC and Nijman and draft 2.  There are 5 or 6 expected to go after round 1 that I really like.   Some are a year away, so I would give Moton an apprentice now.

      I think (April 2025) the Panthers already gave Ickey his 5th year deal for 2026, a $17m fully guaranteed.  This, in my view, eliminates the practicality of signing a free agent, as if any ever make it to free agency anyway.  So we have a year before deciding on Ickey's next deal / future.
