There is an under the hood difficulty level increase when you get promoted, that's probably what you're experiencing. It's supposed to get tougher as you get higher up.

Lowering the difficulty one notch from whatever you've got it at should at least make it seem like it was in AA.

The same thing will happen when you hit MLB.

It sounds like just a slump, AA vs AAA wouldn't account for all of that difference. If you hit .125 the next 20 games, then I'd be more concerned. =) Do take a look at what pitchers you're facing by pressing SELECT. You'll see a significant variety between the different teams and games you face.

I had the same experience today. Couldn't hit a lick. So I turned the game off and came back. I was simply "thinking" too much. Turned it around and started to RAKE

I find turning off the game and playing something else helps as well. Clear your mind.

I'm not sure, but I think since the difficulty goes up, so does pitch speed... Since pitch speed is tied to difficulty level everywhere else. If you fine tuned the pitch speed slider while playing AA, the speeds are going to be even higher now.

You could also try making the sliders less harsh. I think I glanced at TNK's sliders and there were a lot of decreases to human offense overall. I'm not questioning anything since I've barely even played this year, but if you're having trouble, just lessen some of those cuts.

Also take this time to evaluate the camera you're using. You might need a better angle.
