Re: If stealing is easy?

well actually...there should be an option where the SS can cut the throw off and gun it home

Re: If stealing is easy?

I have noticed that it is pretty easy to steal, but I have been caught recently. I am using the Twins in my Franchise, so I only steal with Guzman, Rivas, Hunter, and Jones. I haven't attempted a steal with anyone else because they don't in real life. Maybe Koskie would. Anyway, what I have done is I won't steal more than once in a game with a guy. Stealing, unfortunately, isn't that big of a part of the game right now so the fact that it is easy isn't that big of a deal to me.

I agree with what some earlier said about how a lot of catchers are only throwing out about 25% of base stealers anyway. So if you are 3-4 in steals, then that is pretty realistic.

Re: If stealing is easy?

Are any of you that are getting picked off using the que steal function? In my francise with the Astros I have only stolen with Vizcaino and Biggio. I have qued them to steal 2nd and have never gotten caught. But I only use it only when the situation calls for it.

I can't tell you all sliders right now considering I'm just about to go to school, but to tell you the truth, I'm playing on Pro with my own custom sliders. It's STILL a big challenge for me, and I'm terrific at baseball games. I have a REAL Varsity High School baseball game today also.

Anywas, I'm 11-17 with my Giants. Hehe... I suck.

Try it though if you want.

Re: If stealing is easy?

I steal alot... Its easy to steal but I have always wanted to break the single season stolen base record and now I can... But I do get thrown out my fair amount of times. Out of about 23 SB with Jimmy Rollins ive been thrown out about 10 times. 4 of those were pickoffs on second, and probably another 3 were stealing 3rd.

Its alot better then say ASB 2003 where I could never get thrown out at second.
