How do you edit players from within a franchise? Also, is it possible to add user-controlled teams when I'm already in a franchise?

Roster—> choose player—> edit player.

And to my knowledge, no you can’t add user controlled teams after starting franchise

Yes, you can. You go into settings and click the bottom middle option. I think it is called something teams. You will get a choice of each team and what user control for each.

I haven’t had the chance to play, patiently waiting to see if it whole noticed higher strikeout totals

Yikes! I just played my first game after the patch and I struck out 13 times total. Swinging and missing on what were previously good swings. I couldn't hit fastballs. Normally those are easiest for me.

Curious if that was the same for Cpu as well

Yup me too. It’s odd that you are playing better on HOF than All-Star. Keep grinding . HOF is no joke this year . Good luck , I know I need it too

I struck out 7 CPU batters with Blake Snell. I lost 4-0. 5 hits to their 7.

Yeah definitely weird. The sliders that are higher on HOF are areas I was having trouble though so I think maybe that's it. First game post patch was rough though.

Lol wow! I just got no hit by Hellickson :o . Only struck out 5 times though. Lots of screamers that were caught. Was like Fiers no-hitter

Just played 1st 2 games post patch, no change to sliders, and man they were tough games to win, but awesome games.

1st game got a total of 13 K's against CPU, 2nd game only managed 4 K's. Both games both teams had good hit stats, but they were low scoring games. 3 to 2 and 4 to 2 games.

One thing I noticed was much more hit variety than before. Maybe cause of the timing change? Only managed to see about 4 doubles total between both games.

Coaching tonight but will be on later in the evening. Will be streaming around 10:30- 11PM EST start.

Looking forward to seeing how the timing window feels post patch.

Re: Armor & Sword & Marino’s MLB The Show 19 Classic/Directional Simulation Sliders

So it continues folks. As I previously mentioned I played 50 or so games on All-star hitting/pitching and mostly struggled. I've now played 6 games on HOF and I'm playing much better. It's like night and day. Just beat the Red Sox with my Rays 5-1. It seems like the sliders that differ between all-star and HOF really make a difference. More so than the actual difficulty setting. The game just feels way better for me on HOF, and I guarantee I'm not as good as most of you guys in this forum. It took me 2 games to get use to the post patch swing timing. All is good on that front. Someone mentioned seeing more variety on the hits post patch. I'm seeing that as well.

I will say after a small 3 game sample size post-patch - making contact and driving the ball is much, much harder. Fastballs were almost impossible to catch up to from what I was used to seeing before. CPU also appeared to be a little easier to strike out, but it was more noticeable on the user side of the bat.

I may be in the minority, but I'm actually loving the patch so far. Hitting was something I didn't struggle with, if anything I'd say I was a 7/10 at hitting and 3/10 at pitching as far as on field results went.

On average I had more games where the total runs between both teams was >15 or <6 and in the 5 games I've played so far they were:

2-7
3-1
7-5
6-9
4-2

I'm assuming that with a larger sample size I will see double digit run totals and shutouts happen, but the balance so far seems to be better. I'd rather see 50% of games be around 10 runs as opposed to most games being super high or low scoring which was my experience.
