Re: S & B’s MLB 2024 Simulation Sliders

But, a couple of years ago I remember reading Warmwind's slider thread. I believe it was in there and he had a post about the higher the stamina, the higher the ERA's are across the league. And the hook slider affected strikeouts or something. His slider thread from 2020 I believe is huge so that will take some time finding the post if it is in there. I believe it is.

For the walks, you could lower CPU strike frequency if you aren't using quick counts. I would start going down to 4 and see if that is better. I lowered the pitch speeds so I could read the pitches better and I can lay off more close pitches. When I would hit without quick counts, I would always take until I get a strike. Especially the first time around.

Oh, I see. I didn´t know that sliders had no impact on sim numbers. Good to know. Well, either some teams are just on a long hot streak or the 10 manager hook may have an effect. Do you still have it on 10? I actually am very satisfied, there were just 3 complete games, lots of pitchers leave in the 4th (lower rankings) or 5th (bad game).


Ok, thanks, I will go down with strike frequency, I will see, what it does. I don´t want to touch speed - it just doesn´t feel right, when it is too slow.
