Steals and Basreunning Online
-
How many players are prioitizing defense at catcher? I see so many cal Raleigh users because people overvalue power at ever position it seems. Ever since I put my p5 Pudge behind the plate (with a Def token to make 99 pop, 99 arm str/acc) no one steals 2nd on me, even the Witts and Figgins cards have been thrown out. Most of the catchers I see people using have 75 arms. You bet your [censored] I'm stealing every chance I get when I see that.
Bonus: it feels so famm good to throw them out, I know some have been baffled because it works every other game for them. -
@Reesh77_PSN None of the good players prioritize defense - and even if you do, you probably still get stolen on.

@rubicante23_PSN maybe for you. I was throwing out baserunners all weekend classic long once I made the swap to a defensively sound catcher.
People on this thread seemed like they were looking for helpful suggestions. Since I had great success with this change i thought I'd share my experience.
Been working great for me. I don't even care that he has the lowest average on my team. He's not in the lineup to hit. He's there to throw out baserunners, and is currently the best I've found in the game so far at doing so. -
@Reesh77_PSN I had Pudge to a 98 arm & 99 pop time and while I usually get the out if I pitch out, It’s 50/50 on normal pitches. There definitely needs a tweaking on the backside.
