Caught Stealing and Pickoffs

[cgm110]

Is anyone else struggling to steal bases? I play with the nats and I cannot steal with Trea Turner (96 speed 85 SB ratings). If I take more than a "one step" lead , I get picked off almost everytime -- and still about 50% with that lead... I am also getting burned by the new slo-mo stolen base tag and have been called out almost everytime (a few I know he's beaten)-- even bad catchers are thrown me out after breaking pitches--- anyone else experiencing this

I never take a step. I just steal. I honestly think you get a better jump without the step. My baserunning is 3, steal is 5. For what it's worth

Without a step im gunned down almost everytime -- hes 96 speed and 85 stolen bases and hes caught bang bang (or punched out by the umpire on a bad call)

When I steal with Eaton (75 speed-- his SB rating is low for some reason) hes out by 3-4 steps getting to 2b

I had the same problems with stealing. I've since resorted to using the glitch or cheat or whatever people want to call it. Depending on the runners speed and ability I do the cheat anywhere from 50% to 80% of the time I try to steal.

Anyone else have suggestions? I have also notice some guys have ridiculous low stolen base ratings

Odd I had the exact opposite problem, where every stolen base attempt was pretty much a guarantee for either side. Had to turn down basestealing a few notches.

Yeah with those attributes he should be a stolen base machine. Wish I could help man.

weird-- I've been struggling-- Eaton has like a 40sb rating which is not correct IMO so I get him thrown out almost every time
