Here's a couple things that helped me and I was TERRIBLE at hitting. I got these from the forums right here.
Always take the first pitch. If it's a strike, he'll likely throw a junk ball away (or at least expect this). If it's a ball, he likely throw a strike to stay in the count (again, expect this). I rather guess location than type of pitch and this works for me. When I use to think fastball and saw a fastball coming, I'd get excited and swing away - BAD MOVE.
I don't use the strike zone / pci. I have Guess Pitch on but only use it when I'm down in the count. Wide setting for batter.
..my 2 cents
