Aluminum bats?

Hello,

First post here, but been "playing" (more like letting the computer play) for awhile. Out of curiosity, what would you guys consider to be good settings modifiers for the use of aluminum bats? It'd be based on default settings. I want to experiment with MLB players using aluminum bats, so was wondering what the codes you guys would use. Thanks!

A lot more hard hit balls, resulting in more hits on balls in play (although I'm guessing the strikeout and walk rates would remain about the same), but also more gap hits and home runs. Possibly also more injuries due to guys getting hit, especially pitchers, but I don't think you can really simulate that in the game.

You can Ctorg

Change the injury.txt to .csv, open with excel, find injuries that result in comebackers such as fractured eye socket and raise the frequency of their occurance.

Save, change the file back to injury.txt
