Great players you can't hit with / players you can rake with

[citybythebay85]

Are there any great players you just can't hit with? For me, it's Daniel Murphy. Hitting about .280 with him while all my other guys are well over .300... and he has one of the highest contact attributes. Don't know what it is.

But I am hitting about .500 with Lorenzo Cain. Seems like I get a hit every time with him. Also a guy I hit really well with is Russell Martin, for some reason.

Used to be with guys with closed stances. But this year with the stance editor I open 'em up just a bit and voila, instant offense.

You're hitting .280 with him and are not happy? I can't hit with Murphy, I hit less then .220 with him.

I hit really good with David Wright and now that I use him, Todd Frasier.

Hell, regardless of who the player is, I'd be ecstatic to hit .280 and have that be the low end of averages in the starting lineup. I always usually have a couple players averaging anywhere from sub-.100 to .150 during the course of the season. If I have more than 6 or 7 players above .250, that's a successful season for me.

every year I have issues with Paul Goldshmit I don't know why maybe it is the stance but I struggle everytime

For me, a lot of times with the really great players, I used to try to do too much, expecting success every plate appearance. Now I temper those expectations and don't come up there first pitch hacking. You gotta put these guys in situations where they can succeed. I'm not doing Manny Machado any favours by constantly putting him in a 0-2 hole.

Back during his MVP caliber years, Albert Pujols.

I used to be able to rake with Marlon Anderson as a NYM. Led the NL in average I remember, but then he suffered a injury for months.

I’ve noticed I hit really well with the Panda! Yes even in this year’s game when he’s supposedly suck. He even hits well in cpu vs cpu, just had a 2 double 3 hit game against no one other than Kershaw! I enjoy watching games where players supposedly suck light it up so I can be amazed and laugh.
