It still may not quite match IRL rates, without a deeper re-work of the creation and development, the current setup is about as aggressive as we can be without doing something like completely disabling velocity changes before some arbitrary age. But hopefully it should be better. |
Honestly I would advise a combo of:
Hard set that velocity won't decline before a certain age without injury
After age, velocity decline is also tied to injury status
Example, a guy with a fluky good injury rating (say Nolan Ryan having a 1/1/1/1 injury rating across the board) should lose velocity incredibly slowly.
In my most recent save where I ran from 77, by 85 Nolan Ryan was throwing 80s. His velocity seemed to fall pretty significantly each year despite never being hurt.
The velocity decline just totally ruins pitchers who are built on velocity/shaky command.
