I play with all visual cues off, so it can be tough for me to gauge when my pitcher is getting tired, until I get the "pitcher is tired" cue, considering there really aren't any visual cues to go off of (arm slot dropping, pitches consistently missing high, losing depth and sharpness to breaking pitch, etc.). Maybe further explanation about how pitch count affects stamina? Does throwing 30 pitches in an inning have a more detrimental affect on stamina than throwing 30 pitches over 3 innings? Is there a more of an effect to stamina on "stressful" pitches (i.e. runner on 3rd, bases loaded, runners on base late in a game, etc.) over "less stressful" pitches (bases empty, pitching with a big lead).

That's easy just create a few pitchers each with different stamina levels and pitch with them until you see the "getting tired prompt". If you play with all visual ques off then you need to turn them back on if you want to know when your guy is getting tired. A pitch is a pitch C.Kershaw doesn't get any more fatigued throwing a 3-1 pitch with the bases loaded than he does a 0-2 pitch with no one on.

For classic pitching does holding the button until vibration (max effort) versus tapping the button drain more stamina from your pitcher?

Affirmative

[quote=rjackson;2047095277]I am still confused by this statement:


All draft picks and minor leaguers can only be signed to one-year deals.


Can SCEA Devs explain detail if this true .

Imported roster files?

I know that probably just means the rosters that are on imported Franchise and RTTS files, unless there's something I missed.

Still keeping my fingers crossed that created players will somehow be able to be transferred from 14 to 15, and beyond.

Thanks for the response. I kinda figured that's what I would get. Not a huge deal though.

This kind of speaks to what I'm talking about. The amount of effort involved with each pitch, which I completely forgot about. So the game does account for what I was asking about, if you utilize it.

Did anyone mention how they came up with the ages for the legends in Franchise mode? Seemed to be a bit of an age gap between some of them which affects their value quite a bit.

it only applies to imported rosters that are being used in an existing franchise/RTTS file.
