*Okay, OF speed is a tricky one. It almost depends on the stadium you play in. If you're playing in a cavernous stadium like PNC, Petco, or Comerica you'll want OF speed to be -12 to promote slightly higher averages and more extra base hits, but you don't want to be -15 or even -17 because it will result in way too many triples. If you're in a little stadium like Miller, or the GAP you may want to go with -17, or else you'll never hit doubles.

**Stealing should be tougher than most people have on this game. You could have Troy Glaus on 1st with Andy Pettite on the hill pitching to I-Rod catching on an 0-2 count with most sliders and you have a 50/50 chance of swiping 2nd base, which is just wrong. With these sliders you have to have the count in your favor, a good base stealer, and you have to know how to take 2nd base, in the right situation.

***This really depends on your catcher. If you have I-rod you may be tempted to go to +50 because the cpu will not test him.

Well, anyways, enjoy if you use them. Feedback is welcome.

So, no thoughts on these?

O.K., but bunting and errors should be at or near 40 for both the user and computer. Hitting is dead on though. Default is perfect with pitch speed at 12, I have my fielding speed a little lower. Too many triples, and not quick enough on the double play turn. Check my sliders out on the main page, maybe if we can combine some things we'll come close to perfection. It seems were on the same page with alot of things!
