Most of my created players are push hitters

[DeathMetal]

I must have created about 16 players to test this out.. I made them all right handed and pretty close to all of them had a higher hit percentage to right field. I'm not saying they were all considered Push by the game, most were Balanced but still had a slight bias to right field. The rest were push, and not one was pull. I did not test this out with left handed hitters.

Edit: I just created three different right handed road to the show players and they were all push hitters. I'm trying to get a pull RTTS hitter but no luck yet.

Russell said its all suppose to be random, but very few guys are getting players that are pull hitters. Next year I hope they let us choose what kind we want.


Sent from that place where I'm at.

I also tried a dozen times or so and eventually just settled on balanced.

Who uses C-A-P's any longer?

Find a player with the tendency/potential you want and export import him.

Re: Most of my created players are push hitters

How can you tell what kind of hitter he is after you create him? Simulate a season and look at the numbers or is there a graphic that shows you what kind of hitter he is after you create him?

In game hit the select button...it brings up his spray chart and tendency.

Re: Most of my created players are push hitters

Does the push/pull tendency even matter if you're playing? Or is it mostly for setting your defense in MoM?

Re: Most of my created players are push hitters

Glad that you mentioned this. I'm putting together a fictional roster right now, and I didn't even think about pull/push tendencies.

On a related note, how important are the hot/cold zones for batters? I'm using existing A rated prospects to create new players, but their hot/cold charts are terrible.

Yeah I ended up doing that when I created a guy for season mode, but you cant do it for RTTS. Unless there is some way I don't know about.

Yeah if you are batting it's supposed to have some influence on the direction the ball is hit.

Re: Most of my created players are push hitters

I haven't tried it yet, but I wonder if progression is different for CAPs? More like drafted prospects with bigger increases? ?

Re: Most of my created players are push hitters

My RTTS player is an extreme pull hitter. I made him a bigger guy (6-4, 220lbs) and leaned the sliders towards power. I don't know if those attributes help determine the spray chart or not (haven't done any testing), but it made sense to me that my big power hitter would be a pull hitter.

Does he bat left handed or right? I always make my right handed rtts guy about 75% strength, 100% power but I always get push or balanced with a slight bias towards right field.

If he does bat left handed, I get the feeling there might be a bug where RHB are getting LHB spray charts.

Re: Most of my created players are push hitters

Hmm, strange that most of you are creating push hitters. On my one RTTS hitter I created myself and am 47% pull hitter, but this is in my 2nd season....does it change and progress one way or the other based on where you hit the ball?

I'm thinking its supposed to be random but if most people are creating push hitters maybe they need to look at how its working again.

Just a thought , do you think It could be influenced by the batting stance you pick when creating the player?
ex: Using the stance of a pull hitter results in the created player in turn being a pull hitter?

Sorry, I meant to put that in there. He is, in fact, a lefty.

I submitted a bug report about RHB possibly getting LHB spray charts. If any of you also see this as a problem please vote on it. BUG REPORT ID: 12674
