say something happens, and my pitcher's confidence bar drops from making chicks blush to massive shrinkage.

send the mgr to the mound for a visit, and instead of regrowing a pair, the pitcher gets worse.

obviously it wasn't good to send the mgr, wasted a visit.

when do you send the mgr 'successfully'?

Great post. I wonder this as well. Sometimes I get it right, but for the most time, I time it wrong. I notice the CPU will do it after 3-4 hits in a row with a run scored. But I would like word back on people who have had constant success with it.

I swear it's 50/50 for me

You can flip a coin when I do a mound visit as to whether it will help or hurt my pitcher

MOST of the time, I'll go to the mound when I'm trying to get my pitcher to finish that current inning he's in. For example, he may not have thrown an inordinate amount of pitches, but on that day his stamina is almost at "0" and he's at 5 2/3 innings pitched...so my hope is to get him thru 6...

I use it to warm up a pitcher or I'll use it like a basketball timeout - to stop a "run" by the other team. If my pitcher has given up several baserunners in a row and it's about to get away from him, I'll go to the mound.

As far as effectiveness of visits, I don't pay much attention to the confidence bar, but it seems to sometimes slow the onslaught of hits down.

They must allow us to use multiple mound visits on next years version!

Let it be only 1 max. mound visit for online.
