S & B’s Directional/Classic MLB 23 Sliders

Re: S & B’s Directional/Classic MLB 23 Sliders

What is the reasoning behind best LHP and best RHP in the setup slots? Do they actually use the SU2 slot this way?

I asked him this and he said they do use them since they are higher rated. But you have to have the Lefty in the SU1 spot. If they are switched, they won't use the lefty as much.

Where do we slot the 6th SP/LRP?

In my franchise the Braves have won 11 straight games and are in 1st place.

I am 15-7 and playing good but they keep winning.
It's unbelievable.

The Phillies have won 4 in a row and are right behind me.

It seems I have the season where it is shaping up to be a tough division race.

People have simulated seasons where the Braves and Phillies don't do jack. I wish that was the case for me.

The realism is on point this year.

My Phillies started 3-7 and have now won three in a row for a 6-7 record. The last two wins coming on walk-offs by Josh Harrison.

Re: S & B’s Directional/Classic MLB 23 Sliders

I absolutely love the way the ball comes off the bat with these. When I was using default sliders the only way to get an extra base hit was to hit a rocket but now there is so much variety, you can hit a ball that hangs up in the air but still splits the outfielders and rolls to the wall. The fly outs look so much better too, without sliders I always felt like there were a ton of well hit balls that looked like sure extra base hits and then the cpu just nonchalantly gets to the ball and makes the catch. Now outs look like outs. I just need to work on my timing, in about two weeks worth of games Pete Alonso and Francisco Lindor are the only guys I’ve hit home runs with

All three teams are playing over .600 ball in my franchise, I even ripped off a ten game winning streak and I’m still 1.5 games behind Atlanta

So i have a question about directional hitting. How come sometimes when i push in a direction the controller vibrates?

I’m not sure. Does it vibrate when you sim or swing?

Re: S & B’s Directional/Classic MLB 23 Sliders

Before the pitch. I select direction and will vibrate.

Because you're inputting a direction you want the ball to go when you make contact on the next pitch. Vibration is just to let you know basically the game received your input.

Idk if it’s me but if I use any other pitching other then classic the cpu skill just disappears. They either won’t swing or they strike out, if they do make contact it’s a Hr or grounder no In between

In full Sims with this setup, here's what I was getting approximately (no injuries)

LRP - 50-60 appearances

MRPs - 70-80 appearances

SUs - 50-70 appearances

CP - 50-70 appearances

Yes, having ur highest non closer in SU2 will absolutely be used, sim and in game. In game example today, CPU up 2-1 thru 7, starter was in. CPU warmed up both SUPs, lefty and righty. Brought in the righty since I had three straight RHs up. Closer in the 9th, I tied it. Brought in the lefty SU in the 10th.

Did a few more sims today. Stopped bi-monthly, swapped the LRP with the lowest used MRP. End of season, innings were closer to 1 for all.

Also I don't recommend using a SP in the bullpen at all (unless you edit his stamina below 30), unless it's for you. CPU will use them as often as the other relievers, but they will average 2-3 IPS per appearance. End of season 70 appearances 140-150 innings for example. Higher stamina = more usage.

Thank you so much for all your work! So no more SP in bullpen then. What did you have RP stamina slider at for these sims? And we should edit stamina for all RP to max 29 if I understand that right, correct?
