Too many blown saves

Hello all,
I play w/ the braves on Vet. difficulty and now 3 games in a row my bullpen has spoiled my winning effort. For the last three games lowe, vazquez, and jair had solid starts all going at least 6 inn. and only about 2 or 3 average runs. Then when i go to the bullpen it just feels like the cpu is cheating, i mean getting good hits is one thing but going from a 3-2 lead to a 11-5 loss is ridiculous. And i swear everytime it's the bullpen losing it. I have reliever and starter stamina at 5 any suggestions?

The most frustrating part is i'm hitting my spots, so i should be getting outs right? Most of my relievers have at least half energy

The CPU is not cheating. Make sure to throw low in the zone, vary your pitches, and the strength at which you throw them. It might help if you name a specific pitcher.

Re: Too many blown saves

What does hitting your spots mean?

I am pretty sure that he means he is hitting his release point. Which doesn't matter if you aren't throwing in the right spot anyway.
