I gotta question here...when i view my default settings on my hitters, i notice i have two plus symbols on my guys who have really high speed, but some of them, when i view their minor league stats hardly ever steals a base. Do most experienced managers reset their steal symbols to, maybe something less, like one plus symbol or even just nothing, on those players who probably won't steal much. Thanks

I don't really consider speed too much. If a guy gets caught to much he gets negatives. If he never gets caught he gets positives. I set my minor leaguers to ++ just so I can see what their tendencies look like.

This guy for instance is at "-" right now because he became a horrible base stealer after the ripe old age of 25. He was never at "++", because he has always been too aggressive in stealing (compared to his ability).

Speed, stealing aggression, and stealing ability are not necessarily related. Whatever Broken Bat's code is doing in this regard, it's a bit of a black box to me.

Rock - Scanlon seems to alternate good base stealing years with bad
40%
85%
58%
73%
50%

Maybe he'll be good again next year.

Maybe... More likely, I just get more aggressive with his settings after he has a good year ;) Hopefully I've learned my lesson by now...
