Stolen Bases


Stolen Bases

Noob here - have joined a few leagues and it seems like the program favors catcher's arms over stealers' ability. Still playing around with the SB settings, but in other programs (DM-SBS-SOM) 7 speed usually means the runner can steal a base reliably statistically above 70%. Looks like here 8-9-10 are the only reliable speedsters and any less gets you in the 50-60% result.

Any guidance appreciated. Cheers...

Re: Stolen Bases

Stolen bases have long been an issue that the Sim simply does not handle very well, your percentages sound OK but a + arm catcher does throw out more runners.

That being said, stealing in PC is like passing in Football there are only 3 outcomes 2 bad, Safe, Out, Picked off- an error cannot be committed on a stolen base attempt, which reduces stealing bases value as well
