New idea for catchers
-
Just thought about this for the borderline calls online. I think that catchers should have a frame rating and that effect if borderline pitches are strikes or balls. Framing is such a huge part of catching and pitching would be cool if they could somehow add it to the game

And give them more opportunity to butcher gameplay and mechanics? No thank you.
Jokes aside, it is a good idea in theory.

Suggesting another stat influence user input? oh you are gonna get flamed.
Personally I love the idea.

That's unrealistic so then people should stop complaining about future stars then

I have been saying that forever and it’s a great idea. Players like pudge, Posey, bench, and of course Jeff Mathis would be more useful if they can steal strikes on the black and an inch or two off it. Of course this would have to be realistic and eye height pitches couldn’t be strikes lol. It would make you have to fight off a pitch instead of all those people who just never swing if it’s on the black. It would make this game way more fun and value defensive catchers way more.

Strike zone should be with soft edges
Breaking balls up in the zone should make the strike zone shrink -
