    Joey Gallo bunted for a single against me in the daily moment yesterday.

    That drove me crazy, why was Joey Gallo bunting in that moment, he's a power hitter. Silly CPU

    Do you put your own diaper on or does your mommy still do it for you??

    PS: no one on this planet likes you

    I like them !!! I don't even "adapt" to them... When they start a bunt show my mind goes hype and I unleashed all the joy, oups, rage that this game gave me then they slowly dye untill they quit. And I swear on my beloved mom memory that a guy once told me : I will stop bunting when you start throwing fastball ... Corbin Burnes was my pitcher ( the Corbin Burnes with NO fastball )................... Must be a hell of a day thinking about breathing and big stuff like that.... Fukc them ...

    I love bunters because it’s a guaranteed dub and they usually end up quitting because they can’t hit

    Lofton & Jackie bat 1 & 2 for me. If you don’t show me respect by moving your 2nd & 3rd basemen to “in” then I’m going to bunt on you. If you switch to a bunt defense then I will swing away, I NEVER try to bunt if someone respects the bunt.

    Any tips for better bunting with players like Lofton, Jackie, Buxton, etc?

    If the 3rd baseman is back just wait until the pitcher releases the ball & drag bunt. However alot of people still have the default shift on so the 3rd baseman is usually in on guys with high bunt ratings…In that case aim your left thumbstick to the right & then press the bunt button once the pitch leaves the pitcher’s hand. If it works it’ll go to the right of the mound but the 2nd baseman won’t get to it in time & your runner will beat it out. This works about 50% of the time. The other 50% will pop up to the catcher or pitcher or the pitcher will get a good animation & be able to field it.

    Haha yeah it's annoying but super easy to combat. If I see you being lazy with the shift, I might lay one down just to see how you respond.

    but its not...sometimes you just get [censored] animations.

    AKA cheese the laser bunt to 2b thats unrealistic AF and actually works 80% of time unless you custom shift your 2b to bunt defense. IRL the pitcher picks that up and walks over to the batter to tag him out 30 ft down the line

    Sometimes yeah. But I get people out 90% of the time when I play the 2B in and the 3B on bunt defense.

    You’re absolutely correct & If someone has them in then I never even attempt to bunt. It’s an automatic out.

    Did you ever watch Kenny Lofton play in real life? Did you know he once had 50 bunt singles in a single season?

    That bunt laser to the 2nd baseman

    I usually don’t put my defense in for the first batter if the batting averages of the rest of the team players are decent. But if you fail the bunt first try speedster will have to swing

    For those who don’t feel like taking the time to set their defense for the bunt guys, throw sinkers/changeups in the dirt and they can’t bunt them fair! Haven’t set up bunt defense once and I rarely get burned on them
