    Not bad

    Asking because it's a challenge striking guys out with these sliders they seem to hit tons of weak grounders that turn into double players or weak OF flyballs on strikeout pitches

          Is anyone using these sliders with Hybrid rosters? I was hearing a few weeks ago these sliders was a little off due to hybrid roster adjustments. If anyone indeed recall this conversation what adjustments did you find solid? Thanks

            Meh, sliders are not good. Computer swings and makes contact on first pitch most of the time, and I'm consistently scoring 5 + runs a game. Needs adjustment.

              i get this as well a lot but they don't end up causing me too much trouble it just makes it too easy to get outs

              i think lowering the CPU contact to 5 might help

                Which is what I'm going to do, as well as lowering user contact to 5. I never understood why he had it at 7 to begin with.

                  Yep. Same here. Increased user/CPU foul balls to 4 and pitch on HOF or legend

                      You've answered / solved your issue...

                      Start your sequence with a deliberate pitch FAR out of the zone (as TNK as suggested)

                      -GW-

                          You understand how silly you sound? You can't have it both ways. A large part of this is completely under your own control.

                          As in real life, if you're always throwing first pitch strikes, the CPU is gonna come up swinging more times than not. Just my 2 cents.

                            what im saying is im not going to throw it outside every single time on the first pitch nothing silly about that and that doesn't fix the problem that they first pitch swing at everything and you get easy outs it feels like you're on beginner then

                              I don't see this issue, then again I don't worry about starting guys out 1-0. I try and vary location and pitch type on every first pitch. Like someone said, if you're in or around the zone every time to start an at bat, they'll probably swing more. Either that or your too good and need to bump up to a set of HOF sliders if these feel too beginner.
