Re: My franchise role players outperforming stars

I'm almost 30 games into the season and Naylor and Luplow are leading my team with 8 homers each. I actually crushed 3 in one game with Naylor. All on contact swings, most were first pitch low strikes or maybe even hittable low balls.

I am an impatient hitter for sure. I have 4 homers for Franmiel and 2 for Jose. All of their homers have been "barely" over the wall homers with outfielders leaping to try to catch it.

My homers by the "lower" tiered players have been primarily no doubters.....crushed way up in the bleachers or bouncing off the face of the upper deck.

It's just weird.

I'm thinking kinsmen7 is right in stating that pitchers are throwing better / less hittable pitches to my stars.

Also, some of my players are on base when some of my lesser players are at bat and they often follow one of my stars. We shall see. I'd just like to make good contact and really crush em with the guys who are....you know....supposed to crush em!
