    Timing or Contact for fewer K’s and more CPU offense?

    Curious for those who have played around with tweaking sliders, do you find raising contact to 7-10 or raising Timing has more of an effect on lowering Ks and making the CPU a bit stronger? I know it is never just one adjustment, but which of these two sliders seems to have more of an effect?

    Also, I know foul balls are a big part of driving pitch counts up. I am seeing excessive fouls with the sliders I am using. Will either of these affect that? Is there anything that can be done to lower number of fouls?

    Thanks!

    I have cpu contact at 10 and everything else at 5, and the cpu is potent.

      So I guess foul balls cannot be decreased by any changes to sliders?

            If you lower foul Freq you will get less fouls and more swings and misses. You'll also get more swings that put the ball in play on early and late timings from them, with a punch. This is a tricky one. For the CPU, put this at 3 or 4. If you want more offense and fewer K's, I would leave your contact where it is and put foul Freq at 3. You'll see more line to line solid hits and a good balance of fouls while still getting ks... hopefully. I would inch down contact from there if there is too much early batted balls in play that are solid hits. I wouldn't touch CPU timing at all.

              Have you considered pitching on GOAT?

                From what I have read, I figured that level was above my head but I’ll try it.

                  There is no necessity or, reason, in my head why someone would use classic pitching on GOAT. Use my legend sliders, except increase CPU contact to 7 and then you'll get humbled...or mad. That feeling is up to everyone seeking sliders. Being humbled and taking a step back to examine...life advice. You're welcome everybody
