    With 90% of people having more trouble with lefties why would you even have righties SP unless they have a glitchy delivery or something .

    Just start johnson, keuchel , price , blue , kerchaw , willis ... alvarado , chapman , hader , Britton

    thats what the new Toxic meta is

    Nothing that can be done about this if you look at most people batting average 90 % of the time they hit righties better.

    Do this and you will win more games
    Because most game i have trouble this is the scenario and the pitchers i have most success with are my lefties

    You think throwing inside slider and cutter would be risky like in real life .. but here , theres no risk of hanging one with pin point pitching.

    This game is all about lefties , sinkers , inside cutter / slider and changeup in the dirt without any risk of missing badly

    The most toxic thing in this game: great pitches getting beat by bad swings

    My lineup is heavy vs RHP with a platoon for one lefty. I often in RS, open with a reliever, then see what handedness i need to go to to get the advantage over the lineup.

    "How did you swing so early you're in the red and you still made contact with a ball showing 2 foot outside!?!"

    First you cry about people tanking in RS, because they were too good for you in the AS region and they didn't belong there. Now you're saying running an all lefty rotation is "toxic meta" because I assume you suck at hitting lefty pitchers. People call me a cry baby on this forum ,for complaints that are legit by the way, but you sir take the cake.

    So many right handed hitters in this game have splits that heavily favorite LHP that are easy to acquire and people use regularly.

    Awful argument

    Again, biggest nonsense I've ever heard. I think you'd be better of practicing some lefty/lefty and even lefty/righty in custom practice instead of stating these things here. I don't think you'll find many supporters with this sentiment.

    That's because the majority pitches Rhandy Johnson and he is just a very dominant pitcher who happened to be a lefty. All the other pitchers you mention are nowhere close and will get rocked all the same.

    Because people at the highest levels use RHP much more than LHP, unless you have 99 Randyman

    Because most lineups have more right handed hitters than lefties coupled with more people at top levels using RHP more than LHP for this reason. That’s why averages are skewed

    My rotation is now 4 righties and 1 lefty being Price

    I heard people say that but I never had any issues with him in previous years. He had this card before, I think it was 17.

    And there is your actual problem. You can't have nice things without working for it. Same applies in this video game.
