    Can we introduce a pci or some sort of bat control feature to bunting please? It seems like there isn’t enough user control with the bunting mechanic And this diminishes the competitiveness of the game, especially in online gameplay. Bunts just seem to land whenever without any real sense behind it.

    Also, In past years I’ve seen bunting bail out players with 2 strikes , 2 outs and/or a runner on 3rd base by placing perfect bunts regardless of pitch type or player bunt attribute.
    (Thome with a walkoff drag bunt in a BR game on a slider I. The other batters box).
    And this isn’t the only instance and I’m not the only one to experience this I’m sure. It happens too often and makes no sense why.
    I don’t understand how a power hitter with low contact and low bunting attributes, such as JIM THOME would be able to lay down a PERFECT bunt in that exact situation, yet I can’t get a PERFECT/PERFECT swing to be fair or even land at all. Make it make sense.

    I want them to fix bunting, but adding PCI won't help much if people can just switch to directional and get around it. There needs to be a fundamental change to bunting where sacrifices are more successful and drag bunts rarely work

    Bunting in 21 was way too easy. You can almost always lay down bunts with Giambi, Guerrero etc. … Make bunting less succesful for the majority of cards … only skilled cards should lay down succesful bunts
