Mini Season opponent pitcher question.
-
Is there anyway to find out which pitcher you will face if they have multiple lefty's and righty's? So far it seems completely random.

Your ace against their ace and down it goes

Like others stated...But you'd have to manually check each match up to actually see who the pitcher is...there is no way to see their lineup before the game that I'm aware of. On the plus side, you'll see the same lineups in that Mini Season every time you play it.

In mini seasons before selecting play game, scroll down. It shows team info, batting order, and starting pitchers. That is the order left to right that will match yours. If you select your first pitcher, you match with their far left, your fifth matches far right.

The best tactic I’ve come up with is to use that same menu to look at the bullpen and bench of the opponent and in some cases you’ll find a team has like one left handed reliever or only right handed batters on the bench which doesn’t guarantee success but it at least allows you to adjust your lineup accordingly so that you may be able to exploit these deficiencies

To elaborate on what BiigD008 said, when you go to enter the game, you get a screen where the options are manage your squad or play the game (the teams’ logos are above). If you scroll down, it shows their starting rotation. Their SP are order 1 through 5 based on how they appear left to right (so left-most is 1, then 2, 3, 4, and right-most is 5).
What is important to realize is that your SP aren’t ordered based on how they appear in the manage squad screen. They get ordered by overall (highest to lowest) when you get to the pitcher selection screen. Whichever you pick on the selection screen is what corresponds to the CPU’s (so you pick rank 1 for you, you face left-most for them). If multiple of your pitchers have the same overall, the tie breaker in the pitcher selection screen is which one is furtherest left in your manage squad screen.
It is an important distinction because theirs are ordered how they appear when you scroll down, while yours are by overall. As a result, sometimes their worst SP is 1, 2, or 3, whereas yours should always be 5.
If you want to face their #3 SP but your #3 doesn’t have stamina, you might be able back out, to go into manage squad and rearrange your SP if multiple have the same overall so that you get one that’s 3 that has stamina.
But generally, you should be able to know who you’re facing before you enter the game.
