How to defend against bunting for a hit?

cheddah · 04-23-2005, 08:27 PM

I'm in an online league playing a playoff series against a team that has 4 (!) guys with a 5 rating on bunt for hit. He does it all the time and it's killing me.

Is there any way to defend against this?

Nope. Maybe their league broadcast their games live and let the GMs have their say, through the commisioner.

We set lineups before each game and they are broadcast but we're not allowed to alter the defense during the game so Corners In only against those players isn't an option.

I was thinking I might do something with Team Strategies but the only options to play Corners In are "Early" and "Later". I leave it in the middle.

Any other ideas?

Try "early" as they will start playing in early
