This was an inning ending double play...

I lost this game 2-1, gave up 3 hits, 2 of those hits were HRs, a change up low and out of the zone that floated up middle middle (Sale) and a splitter spiked in the dirt that floated up middle middle (Neris). On top of that when I have the chance to go up 2-1 this happens:

Aside from the glitch, Trout has no shot of ever throwing out Albies after catching a ball off balance, and having to turn and set his feet then throw home, also, why the delay in Albies taking off from 3rd? It was almost 3 seconds before he left the bag. Get this stuff taken care of!

Oh, and the commentary while Trout was just standing there, ball in hand, was "and he puts the tag on him between first and second, what was he thinking"

That play happened because of lag/bad connection. That has always been the case when you see those plays.

The first bit, purely your opponent capitalized on bad pitch selection..

Pretty routine DP

Pretty routine DP

A speedy guy on a tag up on an off balance catch and Trout's avg arm is a "routine DP"?

Trout does not have an average arm anymore. Check it.

Pitches floating up 2 feet from where they were aimed is bad selection? Pitches not locating anywhere near where you aimed them is out of our control.

I do see he has been upgraded. When did that happen? Because I also have him in CF and havent thrown anyone out with him, throws are always up the line, and they are throws where he was in far better position than leaning out to his left.

Yes, if those pitches you are throwing are..
A - badly rated pitches by control/movement
B - low confidence on those pitches
C - user input of course
D - overall pitcher confidence and control

Pitch selection has nothing to do with pitch location. If this game rewarded user input we wouldn’t be talking about this. Pitches going over the middle is a problem in this game and there’s no excuse for it.

I was using Sale for the change, excellent control and confidence was good.

Neris for the splitter, couldnt tell you his control rating on that pitch, but the pitch confidence was high. I have an ERA under 3 with him so he isnt a bad pitcher.

This is wrong. As the devs have stated multiple times in pre launch streams, pitch selection will dramatically affect location and effectiveness. If you spam a non secondary for instance, you will leave it in an undesired spot eventually.

As my previous post says, those 4 things on top of this will affect your location

Rewarding user input is not wrong. It should always be the deciding factor otherwise why even try if perfect doesn’t mean perfect. It’s just another example of the simulation taking away from user input.

If that was the case, then a 60 overall would perform no different than a 90 overall.... What's the point of diamond dynasty at all.
All cards would be equal

Because there’s still differences in stats like velocity and break for pitchers and power/vision for hitters. Then of course you have things like speed and arm strength, just to name a few. So yes, a 60 would perform differently than a 90.

Velocity doesn't add rating.. control, movement, /9s, etc. do..

And in your world, control ratings wouldn't matter. A perfect input would equal the same result. A 60 would locate as good as a 90.. which simply is not the case, nor should it. Every pitch has different control, movement, pitcher /9's, confidence, clutch countering hitter clutch, situation, pitch sequence, etc.

Understanding that helps improve and helps with not throwing meatballs
