....how much the ST sucks...LOL

My 8* ST team has been trained every day in the best way that I know how. I open the DT, check things out and realize how much they suck! The only bright spot was my pitcher who was throwing 108 and only needed 6 points to max out. Then again, what do you expect for free. Why do I even have an ST team!?!?! LOL Confused

Cheers

One of the things I think is a great benefit about the DT fridays for ST trainers arent so much the skills that are easily achieved. Although the DT allows you to see better what your players are doing. In my eyes, the best thing about it is the simplicity added to your training.

With ST training in running is very tedious and training in Batting skill is very hard to achieve or at very least to recognize. Usually when training in batting with ST you will see power gains and contact but rarely see skill gains. With the Free ST Fridays you can see for yourself how good DT is and then decide if it is worth it to you to buy. I would say yes.

Also what you can do is use that time to train in those specific skills that you cannot see in ST. Train in running or train in batting skill. This accompanied with your regular ST training and you will see noticeable results very soon.

my top thrower was my pitcher. he was consistently hitting 170 and above. my left fielder was also pretty high. i have only 1 hr hitter, but today 2 other guys hit homeruns. same here im gonna focus on splitting hitting and running on fridays from now on. Wink

I think I have to agree with you Nmshooter. Training anything other than running or batting skill is a waste of the free DT. Why train skills like throwing when you can do that in the ST during the rest of the week. I will most likely be training running in the free DT until I decide to break down and buy it for my ST team.
