    I like when dead pull hitters like granderson and cargo drop a bunt down the third base line with surgical precision. Fun and realistic.

    I love when guys like Helton or gallo lay down perfect suicide squeezes on pitches that aren’t even close to the zone

    Fake news, bunting a non strike even witht a good bunter is recipe for a miss or pop.

    Ive had it happen to me on pitches well below the zone and well outside

    If you bunt....to get a hit, just quit!!! Trade in you’re ps4, put on a [censored] costume and live the remainder of you’re life in solitude!

    Why? It's legit for speed guys or beating the shift.

    Use your head, you see a guy with Juan Pierre you pull those corners in.

    If there's a bunt situation and a good bunter, pull those corners in.

    Stop relying on the CPU to strategize and defend everything for you.

    I bunt against the shift often. It was working like it was supposed to until Sunday. Now it goes right back to the pitcher, even on a middle to away pitch that is perfect for bunting down the line.

    My opponent bunted vs me with Cargo for a hit vs infield shift. Next AB i did a permanent shift vs Cargo infield straight up, OF shift right. No more bunts.

    However, my opponent was playing 34 speed [censored] fielding Justin Turner at 2B. I pushed bunts at him for 5 hits, only 1 out made on 6 attempts, 3/3 with Ty Cobb.... My opponent refused to pull Turner or shift, that's on him. You play a beast hitter in a position out of his element you pay the price.

    I adjusted, he didn't.

    ...but can’t lay down a sac bunt to save my life. Double play or lead runner out 95% of the time.

    I do it more.often this year tbh.Instead of trying to get under the pitch.Bash em out at a higher rate playing baseball.Moving a runner over with , especially late with what I feel are appropriate situations..Situational hitting and/or strategies are far more important this year. I'll end it how I always do IMO!! Second your post and should be upvoted by a lot of regular realistic players.

    The problem is not the bunt situations, but the cheesers who load their team with 80+ speed players and then bunt with Juan Soto.

    Sac bunts are bad this year. Every bunt is pushed hard. Unless there's a way to control that I'm not aware of.
