Anyone have any pointers on hitting. I'm losing a ton of low scoring one to two run games because I'm a poor hitter

Find a view that suits you, I like strike zone 2 or 3, with zone hitting. Takes time to get used to of course but don't get frustrated.

Take pitches and get a feel for what's gonna be good, if you swing at trash frequently you'll just get more trash.

Play a game against CPU a few levels out of your comfort zone, when you go back to vet or allstar it'll be much slower and easier to read

I also suck at hitting but this has got me up to "bad" from "awful"

I just applied some of this advice and I have improved a good bit. I'm still bad but much less so

I noticed a big difference in my hitting when I went to using a monitor. I was able to catch up to high fastballs that I wasn't able to before on my TV.

I've tried to just cede the top 1/4 of the zone to the pitcher since I always look foolish

I made division series for the first time last night. I don't play ranked seasons much because of the 9 inning games but next season I think I will see how far I can get.

I’m jumping back into gaming with a PS4 Pro. I want to get MLB: The Show 20, but what are the differences in the numerous versions? They’re at different prices at Best Buy and I can’t just walk in there and ask. TIA!

The new one is my first one so I'm not qualified to answer. I really like it though. If you plan to play online get the new one

I've been 99% Diamond Dynasty for 3 years or so, not sure you're getting a whole lot more if you plan on playing offline. I feel the game's constantly improved but really depends on whether you're playing online or not.

You’ll have to explain Diamond Dynasty, and I don’t think I’ll be playing online much. I don’t have great internet at home. The MVP Edition includes the expansion pack and bonus content, so what does that include and do I need it if not playing online?

Base version is fine then, most all the benefits of the enhanced editions are for Diamond Dynasty which is an ultimate team type mode.

I would get the base version. If you like diamond dynasty you can always by cards at that point. Personally I really enjoy diamond dynasty
 
Do you have trouble throwing strikes with lefties? For whatever reason I can't control Tom Glavine. Which is weird because I pitch reasonably well with the rest of my staff who is lower rated

I seem to do alright with lefties I have three in my rotation currently.
