Re: Wild pickoff throws
Well, I thought about maybe it has to do with the Pitcher's Arm Accuracy. So I decided to test it.
I got the Yankees and started with CC Sabathia (88 Arm Strength, 73 Accuracy). I intentionally walked the first batter and decided to do 10 pickoff throws. Not a single one of them was overthrown.
So I brought in Michael Pineda (77 Arm Strength, 29 Accuracy). I did 10 pickoff throws with him. Not a single one of them was overthrown.
I thought that was weird, so I figured I would try it with a different team. I picked the Astros and decided to start with Jarred Cosart (75 Arm Strength, 43 Accuracy). I made 2 pickoff throws. The first throw I held the button. The throw was right on the money. The second throw I just tapped the button and he overthrew first base.
So I brought in Chad Qualls (82 Arm Strength, 78 Accuracy). I made 2 pickoff throws with him. The first one I held the button, and he was very accurate with it. The 2nd one I tapped the button and he overthrew first base too.
So my conclusion is... I have absolutely no idea why it does it.
