OOTP Developments Forums - View Single Post - Suggestion: Offensive Strategy Patient/Aggressive

CBeisbol · 12-07-2020, 08:10 AM

Users should be able to set an offensive strategy of either aggressive or patience.

A patient strategy should result in more pitches seen, more walks and more strike outs
An aggressive strategy should result in fewer pitches seen and more balls in play

This should be a general strategy, but also one that can be applied/changed to specific pitchers.

For example, a team might want to employ a patient strategy against an above average pitcher who has below average control. Trying to increase the pitch count and get the pitcher out of the game.

Or against a pitcher with great stuff and control but low movement, the offense might want to be more aggressive. Trying to hit mistakes and avoid getting behind in the count and striking out.
