So I have a hard time with DD because it's based on the twitch factor.

My twitch factor is pretty lousy but I manage to grind DD well enough just by playing on low difficulties. I'm merely there for the challenge (which I finally completed last year) to collect all the base cards. I figure if I've done that, I've grinded my fair share of it.

There's plenty of programs I can't complete but I'm okay with that. Even more okay with having played 2-3 iterations without playing a single inning online vs humans, with no intention of changing that.

That's one of the things I like about the YTer I posted, he goes out of his way to drive home the idea of "no wrong way, no right way, as long as you're having fun"

Granted, what I described might not be fun for you, I'm jus sayin that if I can manage with my ancient reflexes then it might not be as bad some people might expect. Also, mess around with the different batting options (the different "eye" and button combos), I forget which one I used last year but I was to the point that pitch type didn't even matter much with most hitters, I probably got contact on first pitch 70% of the time, and on low levels the quality of contact is pretty forgiving.
