The only thing I didn’t do was to bring the 3rd baseman in. Thanks for the tips.
I honestly don’t know why do they do that. I understand bunts are part of the game and there are situations where you want to drag one against the shift or to simply get on base. But using Brock, Carew and bringing in Gwyn and Lofton off the bench just to do that? It’s pathetic
No its not. It's part of the game and always has been. Its Baseball not HR derby.
Get over it.So "bunting" is more common in baseball than HR's now? I have heard it all.
Not seeing where he said it was "more common" so yea great detective work
Said "it was Part of baseball" and implied HR were not by saying "I dont want a HR derby". Dont take a detective just someone with half a brain.

It is called "implying", but that is beyond Hooked on Phonics so you arent there yet. I guarantee he is someone that probably has almost as many SB's as Home Runs lol.

Man you must be talented to know what people are implying via chat boards. Its like you are in their brains. Should probably call Miss Cleo and ask for a job so that talent doesn't go to waste

Makes no sense dude. Your blindness to defend this guy is making you crazy. Implying something, in this case, comes directly from the words they say. It doesnt come from emotion or context. So you are actually implying that I cannot tell what he means because, I am not looking at his eyes? IDK. Your implications are actually farther off basis than mine.

Ok just so we are clear. He said “it’s baseball not HR derby”. How does that IMPLY anything you are stating. He did not say they were more common what so ever. Maybe he was IMPLYINg not having so many HR as in a HR derby. See how that makes more sense. The defense rests your honor

My problem with bunt cheesers isn't really the bunting. It's that the ones I've played recently are good at everything except conventional hitting lol. They pitch well, steal well, if they get a guy on, he will get to third, and a squeeze play will be attempted. I just get mad at my self when I don't score enough to beat the 3 or 4 runs they cheese in.

I also hate the abuse of high and tight sinkers.. But I bet you use those at every opportunity don't yah?? I love drag bunting this year.
Well in that case you'll lose every game you play, because the only remedy for those high sinkers is to hit them hard so they stop throwing it, which you probably don't do too well assuming by your comments.. but your bunt game will be shut down by people who know how to play this game.
Tell that to my Lou Brock batting .443 in over 200 Ab
Weird flex, but okay. Congrats. Ur very skilled at hitting the triangle button
Lmao! Bro that triangle button can be tricky lol! I mean......not everybody like the color green. Then some get anxious.....is it isosceles, is it scalene??? Pushin that triangle button ain’t for beginners lmao!

Lol, everytime I see Brock or Cobb leading off with a .450 batting average and 5 home runs, I'm like here we go, let the bs begin

I don’t give a F..k I’ll just start beaning! I don’t care if I’m in the middle of a WS run or not! In fact it just happened. I was 824 tryin to make a run and some dude wants to bunt. So I unloaded the stable on him!

Adjusting your 2B depth is the key against bunters. I love a good drag bunt, both using them and facing them - gotta love stifling it with the adjustments and then smacking a dinger over their head once they've adjusted to your bunts. It's part of the game, it's not exploitive - just play defense and pitch better.

I consider myself a really good pitcher, I was bringing my 2nd baseman in, I just learned through this post how to bring the 3rd baseman in as well. So, I guess I’ll try that and see how it goes before calling out bunt cheesers again. Still, it’s kinda cheesy to bunt with every speed guy you have. Getting 5 or 6 out of 8 base hits that way talks a lot about my defense (Which I admit I wasn’t setting up properly) and so it does about how toxic some players are. (The dude I played was holding R2 as well)

This must be what is expected at 600+ in RS? Last two games people bunt cheese.. I just quit the one ha...not worth my time.
Thanks though @raesONE this should help

Get over it.
Yes it is. If u put as much practice into hitting as u did bunting you would be able to hit.
Obviously bunting is part of the game and has its time and place but to load your squad with 7 90 plus speed guys so u can just keep laying them down is cheese and boring. It defeats the purpose which is trying to have fun. -
@iBonafideScrub_ said in I hate bunt cheesers:
This should be reportable, they’re exploiting the game, it doesn’t matter if you bring your defense in. They’ll just lay it down anyway and get on base.
This dude I played had 8 hits and probably 6 of those were bunt cheesing. I’d like to punch them when they start with that. Play fair.
Sorry, I had to let my frustration go.
Yeah me to bro. F- them. I have Edmonds leading off no speed. Hit the ballll people
-
I hate when people use the excuse that bunting is a part of baseball. Yes it is but the difference is that in real life it actually takes skill to bunt for a hit whereas in this game you just press a button and let the game do the work for you. Takes no skill.
