I have noticed a difference in power since the patch with leaving CPU pitch sliders at 5. Could be a slump but I don't think so. Sent from my iPad using Operation Sports

My educated guess is that all the extra pitches being thrown are tiring out the starters and making them more hittable. Getting a few more deep strikes or center cut pitches don't always give you better results though they are supposed to give you a better chance at better results. More of them are still outs for me. It still doesn't change that the balls' flight paths are more accurate to life now, though.

Keep in mind that it depends on what settings you use - with directional which is what I use, timing it right is 90% of the battle. Getting stuff more in the middle only helps incrementally. That is why the timing window is smaller with directional - to make it harder compared to those using zone that have a bigger timing window. It is also why Mike's human timing is at 2 and why mine is at 4.
