Yes you can turn the confidence meter off for individual pitches but not the meter (blue one when you hit select) that is for the actual pitcher's confidence.

What do you mean you can adjust this with sliders??

I just pitched a great realistic game with Smoltz. I think sometimes it plays out realistic but if you aren't pitching good and you lose it then wow you really don't get a second chance. I guess that's why you have to time your mound visit just right knowing that you only have one per inning and if you use it at the wrong time it can really screw up your pitcher's game.

I think what they should do for the future is add another realm to it. How about have pitching coaches in the game that actually have ratings for how good they are. You can see cut scenes of the pitching coach talking to the pitcher in the dugout in between innings and it can help the pitcher just like actual mound visits can. I mean they do have the real pitching coaches in the game (I know they have the Rays one for sure, not sure about all of them though).
