Fastball a foot above the zone
-
No doubt homerun. Still won the game, but cmon. Where are we supposed to pitch if you can get the bat to every pitch? Fouling off sliders that would likely hit the batters back foot, fouling off changups in the dirt, pushing pitches 6 inches in on the hands to the opposite field!! Please fix this. Stop rewarding players for swinging at pitches out of the zone. It's one thing of the pitch is just outside the zone, but this is ridiculous.

I agree and I've been on the receiving side for some of this [censored]
-
I personally love the off speed that I try to bury when ahead in the count that should literally bounce to the plate that gets crushed for a gapper double.....
-
Warning: don't throw curves. Ever. They'll hang and you'll pay.
Slurves are great though.
-
its much easier to hit home runs on balls just outside the zone this year than in the zone.... in the zone is gonna be a lineout somewhere lol sad to see
-
id rather give up an occasional HR on that pitch than consistently give up bombs on forced hanging off speed pitches. Curveballs in the dirt are the worst followed by changes for hangin on good releases. I give up most of my bombs on those, or anything low middle but in the edge of the zone

I once saw Andruw Jones hit a 99mph fastball from Randy Johnson that was at his eyeballs for a HR to straightaway CF in Chase Field.
Side note: Best defensive CF in history. I probably watched him 1000 times on TBS. He was just different.

You are right Bob, the hitting in this game doesn't need a patch because anomalies happen in real life. Thanks bud

Not really. I find that it’s unproductive and foolish.

Precisely. Was this an admission?

We all complained about not having enough PCI mobility last year because of sinker spam and they tweaked it to a decent point I think. this year is just out of control. Idk if it’s the timing window or the reach of the PCI but something needs to change quickly.

Have to mix speeds. Those kids banging high fastballs are either cracked at the game and will destroy you no matter what OR are sitting on the high fastball constantly and just have to make them chase the slow stuff or throw high sliders/changeups if they aren't good at all and just sit high

They need to get rid of the outer pci point blank. 46 fouls balls is the average in mlb between both teams. In this game that’s one person’s average, maybe more

Get rid of the pci…reward good timing swings on balls in the strike zone.
