Can I save my settings setup and have different sliders and setup for separate franchises? I was thinking of doing one franchise on a zone hitting and one on timing!

Yes, you can have multiple sets of sliders saved and load them at any time into any of your franchises
Baltimore Orioles (1-0) @ Boston Red Sox (0-1) Pitching Matchup – Dean Kremer vs Chris Sale
The Red Sox and Orioles were scoreless through 3 innings as Chris Sale and Dean Kremer were both pitching well early and had each allowed just 1 hit through their first 3 innings of work on the mound. Sale picked worked around a walk to Anthony Santander in the top of the 4th and was up to 5 Ks through 4 innings. The Red Sox were threatening in the bottom of the 4th after a lead off double by Alex Verdugo and a walk to Rafael Devers put two men on with nobody out but Kremer would work out of trouble and send the game to the 5th tied 0-0. The Orioles opened the scoring in the top of the 5th when Austin Hays doubled after Adam Duvall failed to hang on after attempting a diving catch on Hays sinking liner and Ryan McKenna followed with a line drive into CF for a RBI single to give Baltimore a 1-0 lead. Cedric Mullins would fight off a couple tough two strike pitches with 2 outs before hitting a hard ground ball right on the 3rd base line into the LF corner with McKenna racing around and just beating the relay throw to the plate to make it 2-0. Adley Rutschman followed with a ground ball up the middle for a RBI single to extend the lead to 3-0 before Sale would get Santander to ground out ending the frame with Baltimore now leading 3-0. The Red Sox put two men on with 1 out in the bottom of the 5th but Kremer would get Kike Hernandez to bounce into an inning ending 6-4-3 double play to send the game to the 6th inning with Baltimore leading 3-0. Sale struck out the first two batters in the top of the 6th before Ramon Urias drew a 2 out walk before Austin Hays smoked a ball high off the green monster in left-center and Urias would try to score all the way from first base but was cut down on a good relay throw from Hernandez to the plate for the 3rd out to keep it a 3-0 game. The Red Sox bats came alive in the top of the 6th as Rafael Devers would get the Red Sox on the board when he turned on a fastball and hammered a rocket down the RF line for a solo HR to make it 3-1. Justin Turner followed with a single into CF and Adam Duvall would single to LF with 2 outs to put two men on for Triston Casas who jumped a first pitch fastball and lined it into the gap in left-center scoring Turner and Duvall for a two run double to tie the game at 3-3. Austin Voth came in from the pen to take over on the mound for Kremer and walked Christian Arroyo to bring up Reese McGuire who lined a ball towards the gap in right-center but McKenna would make a nice running catch to end the inning and we would head to the 7th inning with the score tied 3-3. Sale returned to the mound for the top of the 7th and struck out McKenna and Mateo before getting Mullins to ground out to finish his outing as he goes 7 innings allowing 3 runs and striking out 9. Alex Verdugo came up with 1 out in the bottom of the 7th and jumped on a first pitch fastball from Voth and launched a 421 foot missile into over the bullpen in RF for a solo HR to give the Red Sox a 4-3 lead. Voth came back to retire Devers and Turner ending the 7th and we would go to the 8th inning with Boston leading 4-3 and John Schreiber coming on to pitch the top of the 8th. Adley Rutschman worked to a full count leading off the top of the 8th and fouled off a couple tough two strike pitches to stay alive before hitting a towering fly ball into the Red Sox bullpen for a solo HR to tie the game at 4-4. Schreiber came back to retire the next 3 batters and get out of the inning with the score tied 4-4. Voth remained in the game for Baltimore and had two strikes on Mastaka Yoshida leading off the bottom of the 8th when Voth tried to put him away with a fastball up but it stayed in the zone and Yoshida crushed it 426 feet over the Orioles bullpen in RF for his 1st HR in the major leagues and it was a big one as it gave the Red Sox a 5-4 lead. Tyler Wells came in to replace Voth on the mound and Adam Duvall sent the first pitch he saw from Wells into the green monster seats as the Red Sox get back to back HRs to take a 6-4 lead. Kenley Jansen would make his Red Sox debut as he was on to pitch the top of the 9th looking to close it out for Boston with a 6-4 lead. The Orioles got a lead off single up the middle by Urias but Hays would fly out to deep CF for the first out. McKenna was due up next and he would hit a chopper to the right of the mound where Jansen would field it and make a good throw to second base to start a game ending 1-6-3 double play as Jansen records the save and the Red Sox get their first win of the season 6-4
