Everyone thrown out!

I saw another thread on this, went into league settings, changed the modifier for outfield assists to 0.3 as suggested. Still seeing a large percentage of guys thrown out, even when the pawn gets to home plate first. I'm aware that we don't get the popup for times when the batter will definitely be safe, so that might be changing how I interpret things. Is there something else I should change or is this working as advertised?

I saw this in another post. I haven't tried it yet but I counteract it with the Hit&Run feature. Seems to do well for me. It also creates a bit of momentum I believe if done successfully two or three times in an inning

i've been simming out a ways..

.330-.350ish is typically what an auto-cacl will give you. (modern fictional)

at that range you will see upto ~20 assists on occasion, but it's not frequent. sounds bout right to my ear without looking at RL data.

if you are seeing somethign in a single game... that's where you are going wrong... you cannot possibly distinguish a problem by watchign games... you must look at end of year results and look for outliers - not just a high number like 20, becaues 20 is still feasible in RL.

if you see 20+ consistently and multiple players with that many or more... then you need to reduce OF assists LTM. otherwise you are just being fooled by a small sample size.


I did notice they have increased GB% (what autocalc tries to get it to)... it's higher than in year's past... so a higher % of fly balls will have of assists in order to reach the same "normal" level of OF assist #s. that may be why it seems more frequent... i can't tell you if it's an accident or not, but hte gb% is ~3% higher than in years past based on what auto-calc ties it to.

I'm definitely seeing more thrown out after being asked by the computer if I want to send the runners, but they may be asking us that less often this time around too.
