    MoM Slider and Franchise

    I've lost my edge for playing franchises. My eyes and hand eye coordination have made it not so fun to play anymore. I still dabble and still play games, but I decided to seriously get into manage mode, as I love all the interactions. I love watching the players play without my poor input. Also keeping the game based more on ratings. I thought I would share and progress with the group.

    First and for most, this is a VIDEO GAME. I do not try and compare it to real life. I dont try to make real life trades, contracts or roster movements. If a guy makes $30M in real life but the game says he will sign for $8.9M, then he is getting a $8.9M contract. If the Yankees want Judge batting 9th, he's batting 9th. If so and so would never get traded to this team and the cpu puts him there, he's there. I use 30 team control to combat silly stuff and thats it. By silly stuff I am referring to overly lopsided in game trades, short relievers in LRP spots, silly AI stuff like that. Other then that this is my franchise world.

    What I am looking for is a fun, good flowing baseball. As many games as I have Mom'd, been toying with this since 19 but stopped because they took out injuries (which are back in 20) I think I found what I like.

    I made a screenshot of my spreadsheet I use. Ignore the Mookie note lol. Thats a note for something else. Other then being on All-Star difficulty, I would say its user preference for camera, settings, etc. I can go into more detail if needed, but I'll answer those in comments.

    I can stream games, IDK how interesting they would be other then to see how the game plays in MoM since it has no real user input.

    UPDATE 9/22/20
    Foul Frequency 5
    Pitch Control 6

    Just a added note. Watch live roster updates. The only time I see the game playing weird and borderline not baseball is when I turn MLBTS on and it does the Live Roster Update.

    MLB 23 FOREVER 20 is better, 23 just for Guardians
    Madden get rid of the extras (SS/XF, HFA, media, scenarios, game plan) or turn them down considerably.

    Good stuff. Mine are pretty close to what you have.

    Can you explain what you have listed for injuries ? Not sure what that is.

    I started doing some testing with Mike Lowe's latest set. Just using the CPU settings and it plays really nice even MOM. Still getting the HR's and the K's and the pitching seems alot better. Still not sure about overall hitting, It might be looking into if you are looking to eliminate the 20+ pitches per innning that we have seen most of the year.

      (ST)Spring Training 10 and (RS)Regular Season 6

      Even with the 20+ pitches, the averages come out fine at the end of the season which is the overall goal. The only thing you really lose out on is complete games which with the way they handle pitch counts, no one (very low amount) should really have a complete game, but the simmed games still have a out of control amount (but that has been a SDS problem always). I dont want to adjust sliders for simmed games, or when a reliever comes in, or when my batter has dark cleats on, or when the sun is shining compared to setting. Sorry, little sarcasm LOL. So, me personally, I have had guys make it to the 6th and 7th innings along with the cpu opponent make it decent innings.

      Mike L always has a good set. His, Armors and JoshC are who I mainly follow when Im problem solving. I really like staying close to default.

              Injuries have been good for me. Not MLB realistic, but due to roster constraints, I'm fine with that. I see a fair share around the league and my team. Also, a good variety as far as time goes. I think a higher number would also results in longer possible career ending. 6 is the sweet spot I believe

                      Dude! That's awesome! The one thing I hadn't seen was a season-ender.

                        With Bacons Fictional roster, I hear they get a good fair share of injuries at 6 also. I remember starting a franchise with it and 2 games in I lost a guy for 2-3 months.

                          Yr2 carryover.
                          Just had a 16 inning game. Final was 3-2. 9 hits to 20 hits. 14- 9 Indians @ 14-9 Boston. Both teams getting players on, then pitchers wake up and pitch out of jams. It was a crazy game and taxing on the bullpen. One side had 6 bb and 20 SO while the other had 6 bb and 12 SO. Unlike the previous game where the long ball played a big factor, only 3 total HR's and 6 doubles. It was a crazy game of baseball.

                            With this sliders set do you see aggressive CPU baserunning, stretch singles to double ect...I can’t find a slider set that can produce this...I don’t care if they are overly aggressive ....Cpu runners don’t take chances don’t force throws ect..
                            Any help is appreciated

                              I have had guys trot to second standing, I've seen guys slide in as the ball was getting to second and have guys thrown out at 2nd and/or 3rd. It just depends on the hit and where it ends up. Ice had guys rocket line drives to LF corner and only got a single. The variety is amazing.
