Stealing / Hit batters

chriskelly · 07-10-2016, 02:15 PM

I'm noticing 2 things playing out my first season w/ 17. I play out all games.

first issue i have seen in prior versions. I suck at stealing bases. I load my team with speed, and I get thrown out a lot, or players don't run. I have the most success using hit and run or run and hit. I am more focussed this year on pitcher's hold ratings. Any advice?

BUT.....also have seen this in prior versions.....I am successful about 90% of the time when I double steal. Any one else notice this?

Hit batters.....Adam Warren has hit 17 batters in 17 innings! I had to look in the editor, he's set to 7 for a season. I'm guessing it's a glitch??
