Speaking of making the majors, how long does that usually take?


You'll be called up at least once by your third or fourth season.

Are you saying it's wrong to talk to a bag of Skittles? Because if so, I'm going to need to rethink a lot of things. :P

If you want to have the difficulty way lower than it should be you should be a major league starter by year 3.

I don't even know how much your performance really impacts things, if it does at all. I've heard of someone getting a season long injury their first year after a couple games and they still get called up with a AAA contract next year.

I'm in Science and my teacher (comic book fan) brought up a good point about superheroes. Superman is the best one because his alter ego is a normal person (Clark Kent), which is vice versa to most other famous heroes. Superman is an alien who changes to a normal person while someone like Batman is Bruce Wayne then changes to Batman. Although he does like Spiderman best. :P

Hm... I said that based on my experience as a closer in '11, but I supposed a lot of factors could be accelerating the process for you (personal performance, positional depth, differences between '11 and '13).

Brewers got Yuni B back...

Not exactly what I was thinking as a SS.

Hopefully Segura pans out to be good. :)

Well, I had a .370 average, and the guy above me tore his ACL, so I guess that would do it

Reading up on RttS...

What do you guys think of no commentary? And is there commentary in the bigs, just not in the minors?

There's commentary on the Bigs, I believe, there was in 2012.

In RttS, yes? Well, they completely changed how the commentary worked in the mode. Before, it would be like a regular game, except you just controlled you. Now, it's more like the baseball atmosphere. While you're on the field, you'll hear things like the P.A. announcer, the fans, and the ump. In the low ranks, it will be sorta quiet. There will be a good amount of cheering and booing, but you'll be able to hear fans sometimes specifically call out to you. But when you reach the majors, it gets loud and passionate. The cheering when you're at home and the booing when you're away get really intense. It's like you're actually playing in front of 20,000+ fans. There still is commentary (in both the minors and majors), but it's going to be after a play, talking about what just happened.

I must say, from what I've played of Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon so far, it has completely blown away my expectations. To be fair I go into games with low expectations when I can to avoid being disappointed, but this game is still pretty amazing. I've finished the first 3 mansions so far.
