You are not going to get it perfect gminnick. Averages are just tracking higher this year no matter where your settings are. It is just the hand we were dealt this year!

Try this, and I know it sounds dumb.

When you have a right hand batter take your left stick and push it all the way to the left (in) and hold it there when you're swinging. When you have a left hand batter push the left stick all the way to the right (in) and hold when swinging.

It takes away a big part of the sweet spot. Let me know what you think.

better yet try this, use only the power swing, the contact area for power swings is much smaller and good contact is harder to get, the downside is no check swings but i'll take that over hitting .350 any day.

Nemesis,

What kind of averages are you seeing with your sliders? I have been a slider whore this year and have gotten around to everyone's sliders. If I recall, I tried yours for about 15 games, had decent averages but was lacking some power. I may give yours another shot and increase the power to default or +1. What do you think?

My average ranged anywhere from .297 - .308. You can up the power if you need to for more pop.
