Line outs this year
-
In the same game last night, two double plays on hot shots for first. One was the idiotic catch and quick tag out of my runner and then one was a catch on first base before my guy could dive back in. This game is typical dog p00p.

I definitely think something is off about hitting this year. I'm getting more flyouts and lineouts this year compared to last year, on pitches that are in the middle of the zone and I have good timing on. It's frustrating.

For me, the update on Sunday changed hitting. Before Sunday, I seemed to have a good mix of scores and types of hits. The game was truly fun to play.
Since the Sunday update, lots of line outs and pop ups, warning track fly outs. Low scoring (or better yet), late inning scoring games. Definitely not fun nor relaxing as before.

It happens in real baseball
Once again, in real MLB hitter bat over .600 on all line drives and over .700 on balls hit over 100mph those “real baseball” statistics are definitely not even remotely reflected in SDS hitting engine.
Actually... In 2021 players had an AVG of .584 on balls with an exit velo of 100+. Edit: .593 in 2020.

Also, only 17% of all batted ball events with an exit velo over 100 mph were hit for homeruns. Edit: With the highest percentage of them coming from balls hit over 108 mph.

I was specifically speaking about line drives, your stats include ground balls:

idk if it’s just my bad luck but half of my perfect perfect hits and just hard hit balls are like outs.
More importantly though GBR

Just unfortunate timing and placement of the fielder. Can be a perfect roper right down the 3rd baseline, but if the #rd baseman's standing there, in a certain spot, just unfortunate. Some will go in our favor, most won't.
