They upped the fastball speed this year. It was long overdue. I'm "struggling" the same way you are.
You shouldn't feel hopeless over a game Striking out isn't that big of a deal - ask some of the highest paid players in the game You have to recognize your opponents pitch pattern in the first 3 innings and adapt for the next 6.That said, I'm like 23-13 and at 734. I have never made WS and I doubt I do it this year, the hardest of years to hit a fastball.
All the best and yea get a monitor if this game is life.
