The problem with Bering homeruns is it would make pitching too strong. It’s hard to string out hits in this game and therefore if you make homers less, you make the game 2-1 type games almost every time. Was it 18 that was like that? It was super boring. Yoi also have to remember most people only play for HR with power bats, if real life lineups were like these there’s be bombs as well.
Look at the twins stats last year 318 doubles, 309 homeruns.... almost 1 for 1 . I’d guess most teams were 1.5 doubles per homerun.
That’s actually a good point in regards to the fact that almost every player in a DD lineup has a power rating of 75-80+ if not much higher. This is why I was more of an online league fan in the first place. You aren’t running diamond players out there all over the place. Idk, it’s just obnoxious I guess the way the game has changed. On here and in real life I guess. Looking at my stats from 2015 compared to this year, and in ranked games I had 138 HR in 211 online ranked games while batting .288. This year I have 68 home runs in 66 games while batting .210. Perhaps this is just a sad reflection as to what real life baseball has become today too.
Yeah. There is no room in this game for guys like Rollins or victirino, this game would be better if non power hitters were viable or let games be like 90s college baseball worth 18-14 games. Geese young players are taught so much about launch angles and not much about hitting to all fields, that’s why the shift is so popular. Freddie freeman and guys like that exploit it but the lack of proper hitting coaching even at the middle school level is pumping out Khris Davis’ and very few whole field hitters
