How to change home stadium in PT

Souchie · 04-12-2026, 11:00 AM

Still a pretty new player to the game and I now have five ballparks that have opened up as I've completed missions. How do I change from the default Heinsholn Stadium (hope I'm spelling that correctly) to one of these new real parks for my PT squad? I can see the stadiums in the ballpark link and there's a grayed out option there that says Select Stadium. Maybe it only opens up in a short window between seasons? Just trying to figure out this process if anyone can help.

You go to your PT home screen and in the menu bar at the top choose "Customize Team."

A screen will come up and you will have a menu option to select ballpark.

Yes, between the end of one season (Sunday evening in the U.S.) and the beginning of the next season.

You can also get there by clicking on your Team Home Screen, then Info, then Ballpark.

Yes. Except for Entry Pool, it can only be changed once the current season ends (the "offseason begins" message posts) or when the new season downloads early Monday morning. On early Monday, you can only use Customize Team. Late Sunday, you can use either point of access. In any case, it has to be changed (and Submit Team clicked and cleared!) before the season's first game starts simulating.

Here's 2 question I've always had:

does a pitcher friendly park help pitchers more than it hurt batters? Does a batter friendly park help batters more than it hurts pitchers? I usually go straight to Astrodome but that could be a mistake.

here's my video about stadiums:

basically you want to prioritize things that help your players more than the average team. so if the average team is playing 5 righties both ways and you're playing 7, you should probably use a righty park. also, upped offense lowers variance and lowered offense raises it, so something to consider as well depending on your team power level

Just watched for 2nd time. Thanks.
I'm up 3am Monday on west coast for 20 years. Just old habit.
Would love ONE button analysis of the league of the week.

Would love if they added a feature to change the ballpark for next season prior to the window that I'm pretty much never available for.
