    I've had 2/5 but they sure are entertaining. Not good for my bullpen and not good for the heart lol.

        Is anyone else getting completely ruined by injuries? Even at 8, half of my starting lineup is out. I'm almost out of Class A player to call up through the ranks.

          From doing tons of research on this site, I believe you need to ensure that no teams have a RP in the long relief spot, and need to tweak SP/RP staminas and the hook slider for sim stats to play out better.

            Not slider related but have you guys noticed a difference in hit variety since the latest patch? Could just be me but it seems like there’s way more than there was previously.

              Me. I had my injuries at 6, and I was seeing about 1 injury per day league wide. I had plenty of in game injuries as well and had the entirety of 1 to 5 out at one point. 4 of the 5 injuries were in non-simmed situations. The fifth was a pre-game injury. I've turned my injuries back down to five but have only played a few games like that, seeing 1 injury league wide in three games.

                I really think it’s subjective along with the ebbs and flows of the game. You’ll see arguments in the main forum that hitting has become stagnant. Less hit variety, lots of double plays and line outs to center. My first few games post patch the hitting felt to me like it did last year which worried me bc I love hitting in this year’s game. I even posted about it earlier in this thread asking Armor if he noticed any difference. I’m happy to say for me, hitting feels great again. I don’t think anything changed other then maybe my focus, matchups, better timing, etc. I’m seeing all kinds of hit variety similar to what you’re seeing and I love it. I do think they’ve done a great job of implementing patches without changing the feel of this year’s game which I absolutely love.

                  Hitting in the game definitely feels amazing now. I’ve actually restarted my franchise and jumped up to HOF hitting with these exact sliders and it feels great. The risk/rewards on this level are perfect right now.

                    Yeah. Guys.....the patches have been fine. In fact post patch 1.09 and the game is playing better than it ever has since release.

                    Don't even think twice about it. Play, play play.

                    Enjoy this gem.

                      This may just be the best sports video game I've played in a long time. I'm not a huge baseball fan, but this game is really getting me hooked on the sport as a whole.

                        Let me correct you. This IS the best sports video game you've played, ever. Lol. Of course this is just my humble opinion. Glad youre liking it.

                          I have got to learn to start off the main forum. Doubts and thoughts start creeping on when I read through some of the post. The month of April completed in my Marlins franchise. I went through all the box scores for the month and my doubts and fears were squashed very quickly. Thank you Armor, your sliders have all ready take the best sports game and made it even better.

                            Trust your own results and objective data. Not what others see. Pick a set (either your own or Armor's or whoever's) and trust your data.

                            If you adjust, you're doing it on your experiences based on objectivity.

                              I could be seeing things but fielding animations seem different/better too. My last game I hit a solid liner to right and the right fielder did this crouching animation to catch the ball. Never seen that one before.
