I usually do these sliders every year however this is the first year I've posted them. The concept is I've played with every set on OS for at least 20 games (way more than that with TNK's and PsychoBulk's) and after that figured out what I liked and didn't then played about 25 more and made some slight tweaks. So obviously they are called "backpacking" sliders because I backpacked around to come up with them.
I have them at about 92% of where I want, but would love if I could get some more testers just to finalize. I know most people have found their set already and that's cool, wish I could get them out earlier but I have to wait for the other sets and then try them for extended periods.
Anyway, I will be posting stats from my Yankees chise however I've only got one game left in April and only the last five games have been played with these so I'm only posting the stats I've gotten with these so they'll look low for a month in and this is why.
In case anyone is interested I use Geronimo's offset camera (which can be found here http://www.operationsports.com/forum...ra-2012-a.html) my only change is I zoom in to where the plate is just barely visible. Another words you can see the plate about as tall as the ticker is, so when it pops up the plate disappears.
Walks are definitely there at the plate, but you will have to work for them. I hate sliders that force walks just to get the right average, you can get 2-4 pretty regularly if you work it. You must be willing/able to take some strikes though or you probably won't walk much.
As far as throwing walks, it is way easier to do than drawing them(which it should be), my tactic on the mound is I follow my catcher up to 2 strikes. However I start on the location they give then move it to where it's just barely on the edge of the plate, and I don't change this with 3 balls (another words I don't give in) unless it's a bad hitter. I've also started calling my own pitches with 2 strikes as it has upped my K's a bit. Be welcome to not use the catcher at all just saying how I do it. Also I use the SF broadcast zoomed in pretty good so I can aim at the corners better.
So without further ado here they are! Would really appreciate for some guys to try them, and if you do please post a boxscore thanks!
