Catchers still do not know how to block pitches that little leaguers could make. Pitching is still horrible. It's a game of slugfest to see who can out hit who. Defense in outfield is just ridiculous. I see players over running pop ups constantly, and I'm talking both sides. I'm just stating what my experience has been so far, not sure how others feel.
I thought thats how baseball worked
You think that's how baseball works? LOL, if you're playing home run derby, maybe. But if pitching mattered, that's not how baseball works.
-
Yeah, you seem to be in the minority here. The game feels great this year. I'm having a blast!
-
It’s a great game, still some b[censored]s going on. But pitching is hard. If you miss your spot you are punished
-
There are some fixes needed but hitting feels pretty [censored] good. SDS needs to tread lightly when making certain adjustments.
-
I have not seen any catcher issues so far. And I have already got used to the defensive adjustments even with crappy defenders.
-
This is the best game in years. I haven't seen any serious issues so far. I will say there are a lot of HRs, but I'm not complaining. Pitching is a huge improvement. You can actually paint the corners with movement.
-
I must be doing something wrong pitching-wise. Some players I play against smash every pitch, no matter where I put it. Sliders way in off the plate, breaking pitches in the dirt, sinkers just above the ground are all crushed or lasered, and I already gave up throwing fastballs since that's an automatic hit or worse no matter where I put it.
-
"Burnt Out" and "don't like it" are 2 very different things
-
I would love to see a little leaguer block a Kershaw 12-6 curve in the dirt.
-
The blocking is vastly improved, my C will let some go but it’s Sanchez for one, and passed [censored] are mostly when I completely screw on the meter

This is a good point. There is a difference between passed [censored] and pitches in the dirt getting away. Pitches in the dirt should NOT all be blocked. maybe 50/50 kept close. That is wild pitching at fault. But the passed [censored] from last year seem to be gone. Passed [censored] are of course [censored] that get by the catcher that arent wild pitches.
-
People are complaining about the catcher's blocking? Really!? Have you ever watched a baseball game before?
-
What other forum?

Just wait until SDS adjust the pitch speed. It's pretty easy right now to react and make good contact. I think it will change once 97MPH looks 97 and not 92.

Guess pitch is all I have to say
-
my only complaint is that outfielders are sometimes not locking onto fly [censored]. But Im sure that will be fixed sooner or later
