I switched to Pure Analog pitching this year and have been really enjoying the pitcher battles. Now I know that, with the exception of the occasional 'lucky' hit, I am responsible for where the batter can put that ball.
I now assess the catcher's suggestions critically, look at the pitch history and think over the 'scouting report' for that player's ability and hotzones. I also take into account the situation (How many on base, how many outs, the current scoreline) to decide what he may try to do, and how I can stop him.
It's a whole new ballgame.
