Bunting in 17 is ATROCIOUS

Look, I understand that bunting was too easy and cheesy in 16. But bunting line drives with Brett Gardner constantly is beyond ridiculous. And lots of non bunting players aren't even able to make sacrifice bunts. They've gone way too extreme and I'm sick of the fan boys not picking up on this stuff.

Re: Bunting in 17 is ATROCIOUS

Online bunting is much different than offline bunting. Which one are you talking about

Franchise mode... Every time I bunt even if its a pitch down the middle its a lightning bolt to the corner infielders or the pitcher...

Re: Bunting in 17 is ATROCIOUS

Yeah bunting needs to be tweaked. I understand they were trying to nerf bunt cheese during online play, but it has gone too far the other way.

It's far too easy to turn a double play on a sacrifice bunt.

Agreed...I have turned three double plays from sac bunts. Luckily I play in the AL so won't see this issue a ton

Even making plays at second so often off sac bunts is unacceptable. It shouldnt be the norm like im experiencing, rather it should be an uncommon mistake by the bunter.

True...not very often should the lead runner be thrown out. Don't worry, surely they can and will patch this
