There! Here is a list of improvements this version addresses:

-Stealing. Better catchers can actually get the fast runners.
-Double Plays: Transitions, and chances of completion
-Offensive production and more varied games.
-Pitch counts refined.
-Runner aggression - produces more movement by the CPU on the field
-CPU contact and power balance. Make sure to waste pitches to setup the CPU batters or you will PAY!
-Fielder injuries lessened.

Some notes:

-I have not done any testing on any other levels, as I still have much more to look at on the All-Star level.
-Pitch counts will vary depending on your patience at the plate.
-Some sliders have a zero value b/c they really do not need tweaking.
-The set has taken shape and is very much close to completion.


Constructive comments/feedback always welcome!

Enjoy!
I haven't tried those sliders yet, but I will tomorrow.

I was able to win my 2nd game out of five games I played using your sliders. I'm just curious how often you gave up a HR to your opponents. I typically gave up 1-2 homers a game. What do you mean by "waste pitches to setup the CPU batters?" Do you mean pitch a 3-0 count and work your way trying to get a strikeout or a groundball?
