It works when you get right into the game to press start and sim & exit.

[@SirBerkeley]

This also works for pitching as well. I was curious about it and tried it. It works!!! If you want to bump your pitching attributes, when agent John Kent ask you what you want to do, you choose focus on pitching only. Then you just follow Chris’s sim and exit instructions.

I was wondering if this worked for pitching, thanks!

[@dpalm87]

So do I need to start a new rtts character and focus on pitching only?

[@BumbDunny]

@@dpalm87 Yup. Do the same thing, accept being a 2-way player and then focus on pitching. For whatever reason, it makes you go into a 2-way player once you get a couple starts in the majors but it’s easy enough to sim to your starts

[@taylorb9860]

Any chance you could make an updated rtts roster with no/or worse catcher? Catcher seems to be the only position that provides defensive progress for archetypes that may have different tasks like the hawk, El Nino etc otherwise your still capped at 5 points per 1-3 games. Reason I asked about catcher is I played a bit as lf and it was fine, but as catcher I got traded because of Joe random and I noticed looking at league leaders that like 9 of the top hitters show up as catchers in the stats

Don't set yourself up as a catcher. He's setup the team to have all the position players as catchers. Meaning if you're not a catcher you have a slot in the starting lineup, but if you are, you're competing against a team of 99 catchers for a slot

[@mikevignola4213]

@@owenmcgonigle7360 There's a few big problems with playing catcher. Only the bronze archetype slick fielding has catcher as your primary position so in diamond dynasty you'll get hit with a secondary postion penalty with any other one. You cant train your blk stat, it's stuck at the base value of 30 no matter what you do. only 2 archetypes(outside of the bronze) have blocking as a primary stat (The Wizard and Iron Man) Not to meantion that there isn't much equipment that boosts your blocking stat.
