Do you think 18 will have the Changeup speed fixed

Would anything really have to change within the actual pitching or would it be just fixing what is presented on screen
numerically?

I saw a changeup tonight that was 86 mph it was low and outside as well. (17)

This will be implemented in DD correct ? As part of the 125 rating limit ?

Yeah I'm pretty sure they can go above 84 like a 90mph pitch can hit 92, but we currently can't have a 88mph change that hits 86-90

Velocity is not effected if I recall correctly. 102 still the limit as far as we know.

With no pitch speed uniformity then the pitch speeds don't actually mean anything and you can't even use that as a reference. I always look at how hard a guy throws before I face him so I at least have an idea. If you start messing with that then an 88 MPH changeup is going to feel completely different than a 88 MPH fastball speed wise, which it shouldn't. It causes a lot more problems than it solves, and not to mention way more unrealistic.

Was the change up stored glitch fixed in MLB 18 or do created guys still Max out their change at 84 mph. Been sitting on my copy of 17 and this always bugged (get it) the **** out of me. I'm thinking of buying 18 on the cheap and just doing my roster there but if it is still a problem in 18 I guess I'll wait til '19 releases.
