So if a runner gets on and I'm working for the strikeout I got no idea what to do as 3 of his 5 pitches have downward motion to them opening myself up to wild pitches and he's thrown them with his slider when they somehow end up in the opposite batters box. I can't throw nothing but fastballs so I have no choice but to chance it. On the season I've thrown 17 wild pitches with Felix in 85.1 IP, in other words roughly 1 every 5 IP which is ridiculously high.

A big question I have for people experiencing the issue is what type of pitching are you using? And if you aim higher or more in the zone is it still dropping way out or way away so that it bounces away in the dirt? I rarely have this problem using meter pitching. I just aim my curveballs barely out of the zone, and my sliders barely out of the zone and it's rare any go far enough to get away and be wild pitches.

Also what preview are you using when selecting pitches, if you don't have it set to show where the pitch is ending up and instead it is showing where the pitch starts that could be your problem.
