Best way to make Quick Manage harder?

[jeffy777]

Since my dog always wants to play fetch when I'm playing MLB, I like to keep one hand free. So for my franchise, I've been taking my ABs one-handed, but then using Quick Manage for my pitching. Problem is, I'm mowing down the CPU too easily. My team is 22-6 because most games I only allow 1-2 runs and it's feeling like a cakewalk. I'm playing on legend, so which sliders should I increase to make the CPU more competitive for Quick Manage? Thanks in advance!

Sorry I didn't mean to post this twice! Can a mod please delete the other thread? ✌️

Try lowering your Starting Pitcher stamina to 5 or lower. If you use the same stamina rating you use when you actually play the game, your pitcher will never get tired during Quick Manage.

What Phillies said. Also raise manager hook to 10 as well so they pull the SP and you don't have a bunch of easy CGs.

Thanks fellas.

I have SP stamina on 5 already and I manage my own bullpen.

I don't ever fast forward, but use the Quick Manage controls (pitch & pitch around).

Which CPU hitting sliders should I increase?

Only SP Stamina , RP Stamina, and Hook have any impact on simulated games/moments. Nothing hitting wise matters.

Ahh I was afraid you might say that.

Maybe classic pitching is my best bet for one-handed play.

Thank you, gentlemen.

I use Quick Manage quite a bit and I'll be honest, I see a wide range of scores.

I started Quick Managing innings I pitched because I just find pitching all the time boring and at times no challenge at all even on Legend + (Simulation).

I tried Classic Pitching and to me personally it looks terrible, balls missing the placement by feet etc and when it misses looks like lofty beach balls. Not very appealing to me. Which stinks, because I use auto base running and auto fielding. It's nice to just press a button and enjoy the game and not worry about full control at all times.

One thing you can try and I haven't yet, but since I switched to "Competitive" Game Style is Quick Manage like you usually do and see if you get better results. Playing games on competitive has produced (as of now) much better results it seems from the CPU at the plate while I'm pitching, while batting I don't notice much difference. Maybe try that out before going to Classic Pitching.
