Mike Lowe MLB The Show '17 Sliders

[JoshC1977]

Hey Mike,

Just curious, what are your observations of the fatigue rates of long relievers (guys who may have stamina ratings in the 50ish range) with the reliever stamina slider at 0?

I typically like to employ a "swingman" in my roster construction, but I don't necessarily want a guy like that becoming gassed after 20-30 pitches..

I have found that 3/1/5 gives good stats and lower RP overall app. as well.
I have decided to rotate the best three non-starter/non-bp guy, so each pitches two months of season. This allows the LRP to have no more than 40-60-IP for the entire season.

After reading about starters possibly being pulled too early in starts, I tinkered more w testing. I feel just a bump to 6 for starter stamina would be ideal. I'm now seeing the 20 pitchers at 200 IP threshold I was hoping for, and just slightly above the 60 CG across the entire MLB.

I'm also putting AI power at 4.

Gives these a test spin and let me know what you're seeing.

Reaction is high so that infielders catch more line drives instead of being scared and ducking

I'm not sure. Not a concern for me.

You could always sim at 0 and play at 5.

Love the look of these sliders definitely gonna give them a roll. Thanks for including zone hitting settings, you play directional primarily? Also great work on the sim sliders you really went all out!
