Re: Armor & Sword/RaiderRen’s HOF Clean Screen MLB 23 Simulation Sliders (PS5)

I've simmed dozens of seasons and know for sure those sim settings work.



Here are other 2023 MLB team averages:

swing and miss % = 21 to 25%

foul % = 13 to 17%

1st pitch strike % = 60%

overall strike % = 62-68 %

BABIP % = .300 - easy to find on-line BABIP calculators

OBP % = .320 - easy to find on-line OBP calculators

SLG % = .414 - easy to find on-line SLG% calculators

Batting Avg. = .250

Runs p/game = 4.5

hits p/game = 8.4

2b's p/game = 1.7

hr's p/game = 1.2

bb p/game = 3.25

strikeouts p/game = 8.6

stole bases p/game = .780

hbp p/game = .434

# of total pitches thrown p/ game = 146



HOF default (directional/classic/clean screen) plays closer to these MLB averages than people probably think.



Some areas where default HOF didn't quite "matchup" (on the cpu side) are the following: cpu slugging too low, cpu foul % too high, cpu runs too low, and cpu batting averages too low.



Won't bother posting what I think for the user side, because we all play w/ different teams and have different skill sets. The one thing for sure that didn't add up for me on the user side was that I was averaging more than 5 BB p/game. I'm patient at the dish for sure, but I was getting walks at an alarming rate. (with pitch speeds at 9). The cpu's strike % and 1st pitch strike % was within those MLB averages, and my OBP % was too, so I can't figure out why I can consistently get too many free passes?



I do know this, whatever Armor comes up with, I bet his 23 set will still play close to these MLB averages.



I'm just sharing this in case people want a statistical baseline to start from. I'm sorta in between when it comes to sliders.....1/2 eye test and 1/2 statistical output, so I do like to look at this data in case something is way off.



In Armor we trust!

I like that "simulated" game suggestion and will employ it.
