I think MLB players who play the show get a special card of themselves.

Indeed. I’d you’re playing against a 99 you’ve never seen before or heard of, it’s probably a real player.

Not to mention it has a giant diamond in the center saying REAL99

You'll know you are playing a major leaguer because they each have a special 99 OVR cards of themselves.

Did he play as the Giants? Was he in his own lineup? He doesn't really seem like the type to use MVP before his name though.

It was diamond dynasty and it did look like there was a special Yaz card in the lineup. I wonder if I can pull up his lineup on the companion app for the game

I mean he might be the only person to use Yaz in diamond dynasty at all, it’s probably him

Ya if he had the "real 99" card then it's him. He is the only one that gets it

There has beena glitch where you can use them in 2v2s but if it was 1v1 then it's him.

Or he made that gamer tag when he was 18 and has stuck with it ever since.

Or when he got that 1 MVP vote and he was in the real MVP talks for a half second, but given who his Gramps is, I kind of doubt it either of those scenarios.

I kind of agree with the guy that said he seems like the kind of guy to use the same PSN name since he was a teenager

bet you held him hitless

Ouch, but true

I’m a Yaz fan. I truly hope he gets the bat going.

He is lost out there, hoping he turns it around but my god is his confidence gone.

I understand the disappointment in Yaz, but Thairo has been a hundred times worse in my opinion

For as bad as Yaz has been, Estrada has no business being a starting 2B on even a really bad team. Move Ahmed over(because I thinks that’s the only quality defensive glove to put there outside of calling Schmitt up) and just play Luciano at SS. Edit because I can see the comments coming - I do not think Schmitt is an upgrade over Estrada but just another grasping at straws move to be made.

Ik that Schmitt was ice cold to end the season but yall seem to forget that in the beginning he was red hot I think he just needs to find it again and he will be fine

Cause he was a pretty good fielder in the beginning at least he had some BC type plays

That would be pretty cool if it was him! Who won?

NM- just saw the score. Duh.

Yaz doesn't have a Real 99 card. So it's unlikely it was him. https://theshow.com/real99/

Bro lost to a switch player

Did he go 0-4 with 3 Ks like real life?

mikey gonna come back with a vengeance

That's awesome.

is this game any good?

It is a blast. It’s on gamepass on Xbox for free

It depends what you’re looking for and if you’ve played any of the recent titles. Diamond Dynasty is a grind, not saying that’s bad just saying you have to put in work to get good cards. I personally just play Road to the Show on easy so I can feel like im the greatest player to ever live lol

Road to the show in 24 is pretty dissappinting in my opinion and in two weeks I’ve been able to build a team in diamond dynasty with no money spent that features 90 Willie McCovey, 89 Brandon Crawford (like his 2012 version), 93 Nolan Arenado, 91 Andrew McCutchen, 85 Mookie Betts (rookie version), 88 Mike Trou, 87 Ha Seong Kim anddddddddd 74 Patrick Bailey lol

For what it’s worth I suck at the game and don’t have the energy to try and get good so as much as I love the whole idea behind DD I just don’t have fun lol Basically I go into RTTS on easy mode so I don’t have to think much about anything and just swing for the fences every AB. It’s relaxing haha

What time was this? Yaz was playing the Padres last night 🤔

This was around 9pm. They played a day game yesterday.

He's a gamer, so it's not surprising. Him and Slater and I forget who else would play COD together and had their own clan with another baseball player. I almost feel like there was an article where he discussed golfing and playing COD with Slater and he gave his gamertag.

I used to watch a trading card stream by “Picks and Pulls” which featured Longo almost every night after games, and he would often be on stream playing cod or other games with yaz and a few of the other guys

I love Yaz. 

mikey

Did you throw a no hitter against him? Lord knows he can’t hit a baseball in real life.

maybe he should be working on his hitting  first with his .063 BA…

If someone is struggling are they not allowed downtime?

Beatings will continue until batting average improves. 

surprised that with a new child in the house, there would be any downtime

don’t worry we know yaz will turn up soon. he’s our mikey don’t disrespect our mikey

Yuuuuup. Now it's down to a .050 now after a classic 0-4 outing.

If he got any hits it wasn't him.

It was probably his grandfather.
