Could be related...I don't know what triggers a ballpark to change.
We would need a comment from the dev team to understand why there could be changes during the season. http://www.ootpdevelopments.com/boar...ht=random+park

Gold league standings (through 6/29):
Cooper maintains their solid OL league play and extends their lead over Annandale. In the overall view, OL teams are generally doing well at the halfway point of the season, with 6 of the 9 teams currently in a playoff position. |

Ok, I have another team that will be OL-compliant next week: the Southern Southpaws. I have added it to my signature below. It has always been free-to-play; I will weed out the last of the LIVE players by end of week.
Also, I loved the icon someone made for me for the Energizer Bunnies. If anyone can do one for the Southpaws, I would love it!

got home from work... logged in to PT to see my boys actually beat the Big Train (I'd say sorry to Harlem, but he's still 14-5 on the season ).... of all the pitchers I'd expect to beat, the 100 Johnson isn't one of 'em....
fun little shot from the Gold league review screen... OL teams hold all the spots for top batting averages, defensive efficiency and starter era... and 2 of 3 spots in runs against |

50k PP and a lot of waiting later and I've finally got the player the Cowboys were saving up for! He also has no prior stats to my delight.
Buck Ewing is the fastest catcher in the game, and certainly eligible for the Cowboys 50 Speed requirement. Between him and Tim Raines, I'll be swiping bags all over the place. Good bat and excellent defense too, a 5-Tool catcher. Heck, he's a 6-Tool catcher as he can play all over the field (even pitcher). No reason to put him anywhere but behind the plate though. |

The team leading the EP is an OL team with basically the exact same roster as me. I'm 1 game over .500, they're over .700. The only difference is their pitching. It'll take me weeks at the rate I'm earning PP to save up for their pitchers as I've made a whopping 260 PP in the last 2 days, but I want to have SOME of my touch to the team and not just run an OL meta...
The batters are identical except I have Bill Terry and they have Olerud. The rest are the same, Aparicio, Belanger, Carew and Madlock platooning at DH, Suzuki, Gwynn, Lavaliere (those are the ones I recall off the top of my head). I don't know where they got the PP to get the team they got unless they got uber lucky opening packs. I'm not crying whale or anything, I really just don't understand. I have the same offensive roster but am way down the list from them with basically the same number of played games so it isn't a quantity issue. I'll post screenshots if you'd like, later when I can. I'm sick right now and using a device that's not mine.

It's basically points. Lots of points. You can start worrying properly when Iron play begins. Until then, upgrade. Upgrade upgrade upgrade. You know things are desperate when I'm the voice of reason here. |

I would find away to play Carew and Madlock every day. They are point machines for my Knights team. I use them every day with defensive subs Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

50k is the going rate. It doesn't get listed much though, so the times I've seen it up for 55k it usually sells too. One time it was listed at 39k buy-it-now and I didn't have the PP.

It is my kids and the team they set up for their friend and dad. I finally had them show me the team yesterday and they essentially invested into cheap bronze and upgraded to silver pitchers with high movement and control. I don’t believe they have a single great card or had any luck. I will check tonight but I am sure they just sold whoever they got. If you get super defensive players, you will want to play them and not bench them. Aparicio will get you 5WAR if you play him full time for many of the leagues. Same with Belanger at 2B. He trains to 123 or 128 and gets you gold glove defense. Also, not sure I understand the park setup. Contact for left handed I understand but you don’t really have any power hitters. You will end up hurting yourself more than you help yourself. If you only have 2 righty hitters that can hit HRs, you may as well not focus on them but the rest of the team. Otherwise, the teams with live cards and big power will thank you every time. Essentially, their model is typically... 1B LHB hitter + defensive RHB as platoon 2B Defense. Ignore offense 3B Hitter. Kell works well for early levels SS Defense LF Ichiro / Or any of the LHBs with good defense CF Defense until you can afford a great gold card. RF Gwynn / maybe platoon either LF or RF SPs - Movement, control, then stuff. RPs - Movement, control, then stuff except for Closer and maybe one of your Setup pitchers Most of the silver players on the team are pretty reasonable in cost. Also, the kids sell players as soon as they see that they can sell for more points and get a cheaper but equally good replacement. Gold cards are not really necessary. If you have LaValliere, you don’t need a Gold card catcher. Sell him. Use LaValliere full time against RHPs and find a cheap bronze card for LHPs and as backup (Boone, Sundberg, ...). Get your wins and points going and then start to accumulate and look for improvements. I will take a look again at the team in a bit once the kids can log into the account. Also, if you have spare time, play a historical game for the extra pack. If you wanted to be really on top, you could earn one Monday, Thursday and Sunday. In other words, 3 packs before you get to Iron league. Even if they are bad, you will get yourself 150 or more points, especially with the Auction house giving you great return on live cards.

I told the kids you almost called them whales.... j/k.
It is all about picking the right players and then playing them. The biggest difference maker is their pitching. Top ERA with last place in strikeouts. This is the cool part about PT20. Defensive superstars can really help your pitchers more than they often can help themselves with their higher Stuff numbers. Invest into your defense and you will pick up more wins. They started out with a Gold card that gave them about 1900 PP. So a nice way to get started but you have probably more points invested into your team than they do. 3 of their pitchers sell for around 400P, one for around 700 and Passeau was their big investment from all their sales. Stay positive.....wanted to see you enjoy the new team...not feel worse.
