Really interesting stuff, thanks for posting. I know my success rate went through the roof when I reduced my global strategy slider to below the midpoint and changed all the player strategies to the midpoint or below. Fewer SBs, but 80% success rate.
I remember reading that a high slider value (global and player) results in more pitch outs and throws to first, so it would make sense that that being too aggressive would be counterproductive.
