I agree it's un realistic, but the very good players( I'm not one) seem to hit very well on legend. ‍️

I think the faster the pitch the less control no matter the pitcher .

I get this, but it's kind of ridiculous to be OK with something because the top 1% (or less) "seem to be fine." You can make something infinitely hard and there will always be a small demographic that figure it out and can do it.

So what's your suggestion, because I only heard a complaint without offering an idea/concept how to improve this situation you seemingly want changed.

I'm glad you asked! Here are some things I think SDS could do to improve:

Stop giving high sliders such extreme break. Right now I'm fairly consistently seeing guys throw high sliders on purpose because they basically just turn into cutters. That's obviously not how pitching works. I think high off-speed pitches need to "hang" more
Make it harder to throw 4th and 5th pitches with accuracy. Lots of times when you look at a guys pitch breakdown, his 4th or 5th pitch is something he throws less than 10% of the time. But in this game, if you like the pitch, you can throw it as much as you want
Make it harder to throw "front door" pitches to opposite handed hitters. This would be like a RHP throwing circle changes and sinkers to a left-handed batter. Basically the ball coming across the plate to the pitchers glove side, starting it off the plate inside, and then having it come back "front door". This is such a hard pitch to throw in real life, but it's done so easily here in this game.
Stop with the extreme velocity differences between fastballs and change-ups. Every pitcher shouldn't be throwing 15+ mph difference between their fastball and change-up.
