I dont know if this is helpful or not but when I was aiming where I wanted and not going with my catcher suggestion I was getting a lot of foul balls sometimes pitch count 14 even. I started following my catcher suggestions a lot more and my strike out rate went up along with pitch count going down per batter. I thought I understood the nuances of pitching in the bigs but I was throwing a lot of wrong pitches in the wrong locations. This is my first year playing though so if this isnt helpful I apologize

"Inside the Show" was one of my favorite things about Franchise Mode. It added a lot to its authenticity... and I am very disappointed they removed it.

That wouldn’t be franchise mode at all. You would be letting others dictate everything you do. The point is for you to become the GM and make all those decisions yourself.

Of course we all feel the same. But we know SDS doesn't give a $%# @#$% about franchise. Some of the fixes/upgrades are so minor and would be so appreciated. They don't care.

odd; I didn't make a custom team or jersey, but I did try it out and the bug does still exist

@HawkeyeHaze I'm not 100% just giving suggestions....
Maybe check on YouTube I've seen ppl talking about that....

I mean you can edit a player and give him a cutter if you wanted to

@sgoforth3 As far as I can tell the game doesn’t charge a team multiple options in a season, so you can send a player up and down as much as you want without having it counted against you more than once. Basically, you’ll take that Spring Training hit but nothing more after that for the season.

Wow, this is embarrasing, but I'll put it up here in case anyone had the same problem I did. I was throwing his changeup as if it were a righty's changeup, not a lefty. I hadn't considered that as I'm just getting used to them flipping the pitch motions for handedness. Maybe someone will see this and figure it out too. Happy playing folks.

I love Spring Training, I play all games for my Jays and use it to marinate my Sliders for when the regular season starts. Point number 2 there is a solution if you have a PS5. I didn't start my Spring Training till like May and by then stadium creators made them all so I simply downloaded them.
