I feel like the CPU is way to willing to issue walks this year

Well, as long as it isn't the 'latest' patch. It might break your eye!

Through about 30 games in my chise, I could walk 20 times in my next game and I’d still have the fewest walks in the league. Teams in the top 5 all have 100+ more walks than I do. And I feel like I walk plenty.

I am assuming you have played all 30?

I used a combination of bcruz sliders suggestion, and warmthewinds suggestion with sliders and it seems to have fixed the issue. I think the issue is that once you get to all star or above the CPU tries to "nibble" the zone too much and unfortunately their control is just not capable of allowing them to hit their spots consistently enough for this to be a solid approach. This causes the CPU to constantly be down in the count 3-0 3-1 and so forth. I increased CPU control by two and CPU strike frequency by 1 and they really are able to hit those corner pitches they keep insisting on going for. Downside is it's a bit challenging since they really don't throw me anything that hittable unless they make a mistake. I will adjust my approach to this and keep at it until I get the hang of it. Don't think I will be waking all that much on the future lol

I've tried this last night to lessen walks and it works pretty well also increases player strike outs, play The Show drunk.

Dont kill me for this. It may be a self-fulfilling prophecy type situation going, but remember this... The developers said, in a video, that contact/vision/discipline hitters would be rewarded more for working counts and taking pitches. From my experience, now dont overreact, anytime the producers of a game want to show off a new mechanic they tend to go a tad overboard to create these types of situations more and it affects other areas of the game. Im pretty much saying that the early count strikes are below average in order to induce longer counts to "show off" the new mechanic. Thats just my honest opinion. Or maybe everyone is just better at hitting and staying patient. IDK

Doesn't make a difference for me then cause I always work the count.
