Happy to poke at that a little more. I'll admit, it's not a stat I follow closely, so if anyone wants to have more suggestions for either batters or pitchers or situations which may end up with more called strike 3s vs swinging strike 3s, happy to listen and adjust things  |
Thanks! That is one of the GREAT things about OOTP. The developers are not "high and mighty" types. You guys are always willing to listen, debate and consider your users' comments. It's very refreshing.
It had been something I just thought I had noticed a bit in recent years, but playing out every game of a season (which I haven't normally done in the past) drove the point home to me this year. I'm in awe of the product you guys produce and the improvements you have made through the years. Appreciate your attention. I'll post my numbers again when I complete this full season. I don't know that every user would have the same numbers playing out the same season with the same or different team, of course, but figured a full season would be a pretty good sample for consideration of the issue at least.
