The opening round of the playoffs is over and has been really exciting. It may have been even more exciting for the collaborators on the 2020 MLB Showdown set because while we got to watch all these games all day long on the TV, we were chatting and charting out this extremely insane 60 game season of the players. We had multiple options, add PAs from last season to this year so it was more like the other years, OR embrace everything that 2020 is and was, and just use the percentages of only the 2020 season plate appearances and innings pitched. This set will be like no other, and I think in 2020 we deserve that. The cards will still have the classic look, but players walk rates, strike out ratios and home runs are at levels we don't normally see because there was no chance for ups and downs of a long season. So embrace the wacky 2020 set and have some fun with these awesome cards that will be coming soon. 
Until then, we needed to add a little fun to the games, so here are some strategy cards to help you remember the rules of the 2020 season.
Will the set be meant to be played with mistake pitches?
ReplyDeleteYeah as always, thats just a bonus to a bad "pitch" from the pitcher. This set is geared to play like all our previous ones, just the percentages are more extreme statistically with the lower pas on the season
