I need to stop taking a lead off of second
-
It doesn't matter how fast the guy is or what his steal rating is for me or who is pitching my guys always seem to get picked off at second when I take a lead out there
-
No please keep doing it. Automatic free outs when guys take an extra step with less than two outs.

No I don't think I will, not anymore at least

Even with two outs, as soon as they take that step, just quick change your middle infielder to cover 2nd before you choose a pitch. Then choose fastball and get the easy pickoff.

I always spam the call time button as soon as people do that, then I just don’t take a step. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with taking a lead when nobody is holding you on.

I don't get mad when people spam call time in that situation. I actually respect them more for it. I take leads off second when nobody is holding too. No reason not to get that extra step. It's all strategy. I hit and run in strange situations to catch people off guard. I'll (sometimes) bunt if people have auto shift on against my lefties. It's all about strategy and situational awareness.
