I usually add up the pitcher's hold and catcher's throwing arm ratings.

Then I compare that to the sum of baserunner's Running Speed plus Stealing Bases ratings.

If the pitcherHold+CatcherThrowingArm add up to less than 100 and the RunningSpeed+StealingBases are greater, and there are less than two outs, then I try to steal.

In pitch-by-pitch mode, I swing away at the first pitch. It seems like when I try to steal on the first pitch, the result is almost always failure.
While the count remains to have as many balls as strikes and there are less than 2 strikes, I try to steal.

I think I've been snoozing as well and missed some opportunities.

Anybody willing to offer helpful tips?

1st and most obvious tip is your threshold for stealing 2nd base with 2 outs should be lower, not higher than the threshold for stealing 2nd base with less than 2 outs.
