    Too many flyouts to center - Suggestions?

    I wanted to get your guys' suggestions on how I can adjust my sliders. I just started a franchise with the the new OSFM rosters, and my team is 0-5. It's weird because I had a franchise going before this one, and I was over .500. Anyways, I noticed that I seem to be hitting an inordinate amount of fly balls to centerfield. I also noticed that I hit a ton of balls that go to the warning track or so when it seems like I got solid wood and contact on the ball. That might be realistic, but the ton of flyouts to center seems excessive. Any suggestions on how to adjust my sliders so that I get more hits towards left and right? FYI, I play with zone + analog on all-star, with sliders adjusted.

    Thanks for the input.

    Decrease Human Solid Hits. A value of 3 is ok.

      Thanks, but why would decreasing the solid hits make me have fewer flyouts to centerfield? And why would it decrease hits to the warning track?

        Hits to center come (mostly) from perfect timing.

        There's 3 ways to fix that.

        Increase Pitch Speed 1 point
        Increase Foul Frequency 2 points (it's not a particularly strong slider).
        Decrease Timing 1 Point

        Which one is the best depends on the sliders you're currently using, but I'd start with the first one, which is far less drastic, and doesn't affect physics or mechanics or whatever.

        If it doesn't work, increase the Foul slider, which is generally pretty harmless as far as side effects go.

        And then the Timing slider comes with all kinds of collateral damage, so you'd want to leave that as your last option.

            i would not use a 5 game sample as a model for an adjustment. like you said, the previous chaise you were .500 and now 0-5....this game is just like baseball in its tendencies. as a player you see a trend an think it needs a quick fix...but that isnt how it works. you have to look at it from a larger sample size. if you spend all your time trying to make each game play the way you think it should play rather than just playing it out as is and having fun with it, then you might drive yourself crazy.
