S & B's Directional/Classic MLB 22 Sliders

Re: S & B's Directional/Classic MLB 22 Sliders

I’m going to stream my next game here. Logan Gilbert vs Ohtani. Gilbert leads the league in strikeouts at 100 and Ohtani is 2nd with 90. Should be a good matchup.

Well in my pitching only franchise with Orioles we are off to a 1-3 start. Sliders giving realistic results for using a really bad pitching staff.

Game one: TOR 9 12 0 (1BB 7K); 5 2B, 3B, 2HR
Game two: TOR 5 9 2 (2BB 11K); 2B, HR
Game three: TOR 9 15 0 (4BB 4K); 2B, 3HR

Game four: BOS 8 17 1 (3BB 6K); 6 2B, HR

Yes, I am getting smacked around but I expected it. I can go play with the Mets franchise and hold them to realistic amount of hits etc too. Been going with cpu hitting sliders of:

Contact 6
Power 5
Timing 10
Foul frequency 0
Solid hits 10

User pitcher control/consistency is 0/2.

This setup has given us the best overall experience this year and the stats collected are backing it up. I read that so many are frustrated with lack of cpu offense. Well we have found the formula to get what we are wanting from the cpu here. I would implore everyone wanting consistent cpu offense, while still able to shut them down to give these a try.

This is strictly ALLSTAR pitching. Any higher or lower and they're not going to work. HOF or higher you won't get the strikeouts vs the cpu unless you drop timing significantly, which will cause a lack of offense once again.

Re: S & B's Directional/Classic MLB 22 Sliders

And I have played 25 games with the OP using the Mariners who is in the middle of the pack I would say.

The CPU has a batting average of .261. These are the averages per game. I am seeing a good mix of games with the pitching staff.

Hits per game: 9.2
Runs per game: 4.2
Home runs per game: 1.1
Strikeouts per game: 9
Walks per game: 2.5

The CPU is scoring runs and they are not doing it by just the home runs. 37% of the runs they score are from home runs. The MLB real life is around 40%.

You both are *** **** geniuses with these sliders!! You saved my Brewers franchise! I'm carving hitters up with my starters now.

Last game for Burnes... CG, 2 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 13 K... It was fricken amazing!

Thank you!!

Re: S & B's Directional/Classic/Quick Counts MLB 22 Sliders

How is everyone’s simmed stats looking? I’ve noticed after one month (27 games) that some teams relievers have like 34 innings pitched.

I originally thought it could be due to injury but these guys are like 24-30 stamina at most. Hitting numbers look good, pitching numbers look decent too outside of IP.

Any other feedback or are we happy with where we are at?

Are you only pitching for the Orioles, or are you pitching for both teams? If one the Orioles, what are you doing when it is your turn at bat? You simming, quick managing, letting the cpu bat for you, or something else? I have played where I either pitch for both teams or bat for both teams. Thank you for your response and the work you do on sliders.

Yes, just pitching only. I quick manage the hitting. Decide to swing, steal, pinch hit, etc etc. For it to sim it well I have found cpu SP stamina at 1 with manager hook at 6 to work the best.

I was using stamina at 7 I believe... And 103 pitches.

Re: S & B's Directional/Classic MLB 22 Sliders

Considering going to HOF pitching with OP sliders. I'm seeing hits here and there by the CPU they aren't scoring. I'm carving teams up to the point that it's boring. Stats may be in line but I'm tempted to just quick manage pitching because it's not a challenging enough to keep my attention.

Well gave up 4 hr's in the first 2 innings on HOF.....

The only thing with HOF is your strikeouts will probably be low. Crazy if the cpu really doesn't get hits vs you with these on Allstar though.

With Scherzer last game I went only 4.1ip 5h 5er 5bb 7k. Gave up 8 hits altogether that game so my bullpen was solid.

Damn. You could try cpu power at 6 back on Allstar. Just have to be careful it’s not going to be home run fest. You could also try contact at 7 with power at 5.

The Athletics just crushed me 9-4. Lower scoring team in the league lol made me mad but glad that I’m giving up the runs.

I 1,000% agree that this game gets boring when you mow down the cpu hitters. Not fun when you HOPE they score. We worked so hard trying to make this game a challenge so we will help you out and try to save you lol

I’ll have to look tonight and let you know what the numbers around the league are at. What bullpen setup are you using?

To add to this. Cpu contact at 7 with power at 4 was good but just low homerun totals oddly enough so we have settled in with 6 and 5. So you could give the contact at 7 and power at 4 a shot first as well. And strikeouts are still there so don't be concerned with that.

I just know HOF or higher your strikeout totals are going to be low with these UNLESS you turn cpu timing down to like 2. But then their offense becomes too weak overall once again and we're back to that. Trust us, we test probably damn near every crazy combination of sliders possible so we've been all over. We won't ever give up testing until we get exactly what we are looking for. But truthfully it's a lot of fun. I sometimes have more fun testing sliders than ai do actually playing my franchise games.
