Newbie needing some help.
Hey guys!
A couple of questions .. New to this all, and just wondering how you guys play your games at the very beginning.. Do you guys play every game or sim through a lot of it until key games? When playing a game, first question is; batting.. Is there a lot of difference in taking a pitch, rather than just doing "swing away" every time, or hitting the space bar to auto the at bat? Any info on that would be great. With Pitching; There's Pitch at, Pitch around, Pitch to contact.. now, in my eyes,
And just a few more things (sorry I'm a pain); I had a season underway, but I am going to start a new one as I have a few queries and things I want to change/try..
Sorry for the rather long post, if you guys could help with even one of the questions asked, I'd be very grateful. Regards, Nick. |

ratings for prospects develop with playing time. To get the best out of players. I'd suggest setting each players strategy instead of just team strategy |

Thanks for the reply, what can you do with a players "strategy", tell them to hit contact, or go for power kind of thing? And, how would I go about doing this? Thanks. |

Long story short. There really isn't a "wrong" way to play this game. You can do pretty much whatever you want. No, not everything will necessarily turn out the way you hoped and planned each season, because baseball, but there's just so many different ways to play, you should find a way you enjoy no problem. |

If you go the the trade tab, you will see a tab for shop a player.
Just click and drag the name of a player you want to shop up the the box, and you'll receive some offers if anyone is interested in him. Sent from my SM-G930R4 using Tapatalk |
