I posted about my tribulations with Jackie before, but my current position is even worse. In my current team, I have only one player seemingly capable of stealing well enough to even be worth trying it, Eddie Collins standing with one day to go at a respectable 47-15 SB/CS. Obviously, the one-legged hitters are prohibited from stealing at all, but whatever slider combinations I try, I can't get players such as Trout, Rodriguez, Griffey and Brett to steal at a profit no matter how much I limit their attempts to try. Even Gwynn (87/86/89) can't get a decent number of SB without half as many CS as well.

Am I actually doing something wrong, or is it simply not possible at diamond level to steal effectively unless baserunning skills are above 90 or even 100? If so, isn't that a problem with the model? Surely there would be opportunities for the discriminating runner even if facing an entire team of 'gold gloves'?
