Baseball sim changes for April 2019

Post by Admin »

The following changes are being installed tonight:

- Steals of home have been fixed, so they may actually occur now. (They actually could happen before but due to a bug it was a 1 in 6 billion chance.) They are attempted at about half the rate of reality, so this may be adjusted in the future. Please check your Stealing Home settings to make sure they are what you want them to be.
- Steals of home will apply the "Catcher arm" rating to Pitcher arm now as the catcher's arm is not relevant here.
- Sacrifice bunt logic has been refined based on new research. As a result, double plays will happen less often (they will be attempted the same number of times but some will fail), and you'll see different double play combinations, including trying to get the lead runner if possible when first and second are occupied.
- Sacrifice bunts now appear line by line in Dynasty Vision so you have a moment of not knowing if it succeeded or not.

This is great! Bunts are now exciting. I didn't expect to see such an improvement to DynastyVision.

Are there any plans to change "great play by the shortstop to prevent..." to "great play by X (SS) to prevent..." (and such) where X is the player's name? Would be cool to see who made the play without having to check who played that position.

with the bunts, is there a different strategy with that? Or is it just more details with the bunt?

Different strategy as what happens on a bunt now is calculated differently.

I have to see if there is a reason it's being done the way it is. It sounds like a simple change.
