How someone can get enjoyment letting the CPU do something they can't is beyond me.
Michael Cuddyer missed on two attempted dive catches last night. I could've easily done that manually

You think? I don't think you auto fielding guys could catch a cold in a pre-school.

Great job putting down other people because they prefer a different way to play the game.

Stay classy

Re: How many use "Auto Fielding" vs. going it on their own?

I switched to auto throwing too because I had 3-4 throwing errors through 4 games. The CPU throws are definitely more clean and crisp than my throws. I have only played 1 games since the switch and in that game one of my OF's threw a runner out at home. Although, my SS had a throwing error, so it wasn't much different than Manual, honestly.

So now I'm on auto fielding, throwing and running, but I may switch back from time to time. Heck, sometimes when my wife is out shopping and I can get a 3 or 4 hour gaming session in I'll even let put it on auto while I pitch or bat so I can watch and eat a sandwich at the same time. Baseball has a long season, so it's great to have so many options to play around with!

Sweet, one of the benefits of auto fielding is a strong immune system!

Re: How many use "Auto Fielding" vs. going it on their own?

The only times that I have switched it to autofielding was to get better results.
Sometimes I can't make the diving plays that the CPU can make or I can't see the thing that would cause a slow throw animation and a lollipop throw to 2nd and instead should have thrown to 1st. Eventually the frustration builds up enough to switch over to auto.

I understand that aspect.

I don't understand how any one could make their fielders -better- by manually controlling them. A couple people mentioned that their fielders are too good if they control them. How is that?
