For anyone trying to kick it. First pitch at 12 https://www.twitch.tv/kidd_gambino5/

I increased human pitch control by one, and I seem to be getting better results from meter pitching—more strikeouts, swings, and misses from my opponents.

I'm still hitting HRs at a way too high rate. This honestly could be because I'm using the Yankees who have insane power 1-9. I use zone hitting. What would be best to try and decrease HRs, up hitting to legend or decrease human power by 1?

Yankees are waaay overrated.

Tried to do 30 team control last night with a “CPU” profile on the 29 teams but I found that regardless of the CPU mode-specific settings, I couldn’t have my team settings set to “manual” without all 30 being “manual”.

Was going to try the Long Reliever fix. Anyone else run into this?

If you're talking about the tabs saying manual, that should be a visual bug, internally it should work as intended. You can go to the 2 screens and see what is being controlled by which profile. I heard Armor say that.

Re: Mike Lowe MLB The Show 20 Sliders

For those struggling with 30-team control, I have not encountered any glitches whatsoever; it works exactly the same as in years' past. Here is a video in which I demo it, at least briefly: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WvvEPEsXjj0

Also, reminder that my Tigers franchise stream will continue at 7pm ET on Wednesdays and Sundays. Tigers are 2-0 after a restart with Ridin's 1.5 roster having beat Cleveland 2-1 and 4-3.

Mike has done it again with these sliders, even thought I"m sucking it up with the O's right now, but gameplay is great

Hey guys, having fun with the show. Great work Mike. Quick question, does pitch trail and classic have any differences besides the obvious visual one? Do the pitches move more or differently on one or the other?

Nope, it's just a visual aid.

Mike, any thoughts about changing the errors sliders? On default it seems like they never happen

Nope, I've had nearly the opposite experience.

Hey Mike,

Been using your sliders and Ridins rosters (V.1) for my franchise! Im 10 games in and just wanted to update on what I am seeing (obviously I need to play another 20 games at least before I touch the sliders... but hopefully this helps you with general impressions how others are seeing things). Only differences in setup is that I use pulse pitching, have hot zones turned off, and dont use 30 team control. I control every pitch of the Blue Jays. So far:

Hopefully this is useful! Let me know. If it is I will update in another 10 games. Not going to change anything yet but so far my early impressions are to maybe bring down Human pitcher control/consistency and increase CPU contact or solid hits. Maybe if I bring down the control/consistency I will walk more and have to pitch more cautiously for fear of leaving balls in the middle of the plate. Right now I am not feeling quite punished enough (except with a couple relievers who can't hit their spots at all). Otherwise offense feels pretty good. My only slight thought early on is that the baserunners are a bit too slow or the fielders have too much arm strength/accuracy as I have been thrown out on the base paths at some times that often should be a double. But again could be just early results.
