Switch pitcher
-
I saw this to, which is weird because the righty motion is just fine.
-
I like that a switch pitcher can counter switch lineups. I understand there's only one in the league right now but having multiple switch relievers, from a video game perspective, can balance the meta.
-
@AdeptOfMemory_PSN if the rule is actually working, pitcher selects hand to throw with per plate appearance and then the batter decides where to hit from. I guess you could select their “worse” side.

@dbMonK_XBL
So this would automatically be the case or is this user input? -
@dbMonK_XBL
I thought it was the other way around? The batter chooses first... then the P? -
The switch hitter automatically gets the advantage with the match up, i just pitched with him.

Thanks! That's kinda lame. I would think a switch pitcher should get the advantage as the switch batter already gets the advantage over the general left/right pitcher.

Where do you get him I’m at work lol. Haven’t been able to look

Yeah i agree or at least rotate it ever switch hitter vs switch pitcher at bat to balance it.

He’s in tbe Draft 24 showdown, its only 2 rounds , enter final round facing him with 30 outs and down 10-1, was pretty easy
-
@icebergslim7669_PSN thank you!
-
The guy i played paused it for a long time after my pitcher switched throwing sides, probably thought i was hacking and reported me lol
-
Now im in a ranked game using Jurrangelo and its giving me the pitcher the advantage in the switch vs switch matchup, i have no clue how they decide who has the matchup advantage now lol

That sounds like the preferred interaction. I'd much rather have the switch pitcher have the advantage. Switch batters get an advantage over L/R.
-
Yeah i agree, you can only run him out there every 5 games anyways, so give him the advantage, the switch hitters will have the advantage in every other game.

However, the left-handed pitching movement is wrong. Everything comes out of the left Hand and breaks like it was right handed.
I used him in an Event game, and I kept thinking "wait... this is backwards".

@AdeptOfMemory_PSN it can’t. The switch hitter gets the advantage in mlb the show
-
@bostondirtdog21_PSN what I do is use the slider as the changeup, and the other way around. The sinker can’t be fixed tho

I played an event game and the switch hitter got the advantage, but when i played ranked the pitcher got the advantage, no clue why, hopefully they will shed some light on the parameters.
