Have you tried Pinpoint? It’s like analog, but requires human-based accuracy with regards to input, timing and release. Pitcher stats matter, as the input is more forgiving with higher-rated pitchers, but it allows you to manipulate pitches more like you can in real life.
If you want to make sure your 0-2 fastball is up in the zone looking for a chase, you can aim up there, but also release the ball a little early, and do so on purpose to try and get an aggressive batter chasing. Likewise if your guy has a good curveball, you can hold onto it a little longer, and bury it in front of the plate by manipulating your release point.
I prefer being more active in my pitching, and it makes it way more rewarding than pressing a button and hoping.
Try a couple games with it, I was hooked after three games, as you see a HUGE difference in the release point and the accuracy between your pitching staff.
