So I'm a decent player, I make world series pretty much every season so I'm pretty familiar with the pitch speeds. Someone tell me if I'm the only one but is it just me sometimes but because of connection or whatever it is online the pitch speeds vary. It seems one game a hundred mile an hour fastball is hittable with ease but the 90 on hall of fame is stupid fast or even or all-star. Each game it seems the pitch speeds vary and or even the pitch dont break the same or lag. Please let me know if you have had the same problems

For all the people complaining about hitting and fielding, it also happens to your opponent as well. Another thing is if you're complaining about the good/okay I understand but a good way to get better is practice online on legend and jack up the fastball pitch speeds practicing tracking the pitch not even swinging. Once you do that consistent it shows in games and not all swings will be good/okay they turn into good/good and good/squared and the occasional perfect/perfect.

This is what I believe,
With everyone complaining about hitting this is what needs to be changed

• A perfectly squared up ball should never have a lower exit velo than the pitch coming in.
• They should differentiate between good/good and good/squared up.
• No ball near the center of the PCI with good timing should be label good/okay and if they want to make it better so players aren't is upset.
• Properly reward the player for the ball placed in the center of the PCI and make the PCI smaller.
• Even players with no power with good placement should have a strong exit velo but maybe just prone to hitting less flyballs.
• Guys with power should have to still properly square up balls but have a higher exit velo and be more prone to hitting flyballs.

I've played the game for years and what I believe SDS should do is create a survey then create an mlb 21 "pre alpha" or testing then get feedback with another survey and make tweaks especially with the new console next year.

Let me know what you all think
