What do you suggest?

Honestly, I've been working on rosters so much that I've only played 6 full games, and the most runs I've scored in any of them is 3. I'm very impatient (LOL!)...

I also probably use the left stick (aiming) too much as well...

Do you think 90 would work?

[mkharsh33]

Made one slight adjustment to my sliders in first post. Raised User Pitch Break Influence from 90 to 100 (at the suggestion of the thread of BigFnJoe's)...

I am going to try these tonight, I am starting to get too many hits using the Holy Grail *******. Although I am not for sure these will be any harder to hit with. I may up the cpu pitching diff to 85 or 90. I do like your pitching looks harder then his. I for onel also prefer fielding speed at 50 for both human and cpu. And cpu batting at either 50/100 or 65/85. Let me know what you think.

[mkharsh33]

I updated 2 items (1st post)...

CPU Batting power increased from 35 to 40
User Pitching Composure rating maxed out from 75 to 100

These two changes have made this more fun... The CPU gets better contact on the ball and the User pitching interface is more challenging.

[mkharsh33]

Sorry... one final change (I believe)... I upped CPU contact to 45... NOW it plays much, much more fun and the pitching is more challenging in that I don't strike out as many guys.

I was the Indians vs. the Reds (CPU) last night. I lost 8-4. I had 13 hits to 12 for Cincy and I gave up 2 homers, 1 double and 1 triple. I also had 2 doubles and a homer myself. I struck out 5 batters, but used Masterson (5 k's) & Jensen Lewis, so those numbers seemed about right.

I believe this will be my FINAL set (1st post)...

I got in 2 exh. games with this slider set last night and I am impressed with them.
Game one I got hammered, I was the Padres and lost to the Rockies 9-0. I had 7 hits and the Rockies had 12 hits and 4 HRS. I really struggled to pitch in this game, Chris Young only lasted 4.1 innings.
Game 2 I was the Mariners and I beat the Rays 5-3, King Felix was awesome for me in this one. He went 7 innings and struck out 10 while allowing only 1 run and 3 hits. Again I scored 5 runs on 12 hits and 2 HRS (HRS where hit by Figgins and Jr Griffey, it was nice to be able to hit one with a non HR hitter like Figgins). The Rays did score 2 runs on a 2 run HR by Pena in the 9th.
Again I really like this set and will be using them in my Reds season, the only change I would suggest in bumping the pitcher fatigue down to 55 or so. With it at 60 the starters get tired way to quick. In my second game Felix had only pitched 50 pitches through 6 innings but was already extremely tired. I had to take him out after the 7th inning and 68 pitches because he was just gased, Felix should not be that tired after only 70 pitches.
