Players not performing as expected?

Recommended Posts

I have just started a new dynasty with the yankees in MVP 2005 no mods, just the UR 8.1 rosters. I have to say I love the new rosters. With EA ratings I could just destroy the computer going 30 game win streaks on all-star. Now my record is 6-4, Im still getting used to the lower ratings. :not: Though to get to the point. I play on all star, no slider adj. with the Yankees. I am hitting in the mid .100-.200 with all my players except Robinson Cano. He's hitting so far .359 and 11 HR, where Alex Rodriguez is hitting .209 and 7 HR. Even with Cano being rating lowly on LHC he still has jacked 2 HR against them. I know some players hitting .159 can be expected but Jeter. Ive only had one "blow out" and that was the first game beating the Sox 8-0. I like the fact that my games are close and fun,(and the fact that their may actually be a pennant race) but at the same time its frustrating to see my most talented players hit sub .200. Any suggestions...

Be patient, don't force the issue of hitting, and don't think about stats when you're hitting (unless you're going for the cycle :grin: ). I used to have the same problem.

2muchclutch is right - be patient. It takes a bit - I just started to play on All-Star not too long ago and it took till my 15th to 20th game to become mostly comfortable with the added difficulty. However, I still haven't grasped it completely.

Thanks for the tips, Ill try to be more paitient. I dont really focus on the statistics as much as I use them as performance analysis after the game. Though I do probably get frustrated when Jeter comes to the plate and cant do nothing and get impatient. I hardly strike out, unless the pitcher isnt putting something in the strike zone. I do swing at almost everything that moves :lurk: . It just seems like my 80+ contact hitters hit everything to a fielder or pop up fouls, then Cano just sends everything out of the park.

P.S. I like your sig 2muchclutch.
