Whilst procrastinating about a switch to the modern baseball approach, as discussed above, my current squad went about their business and ended the regular with these statistics, which I think you'll agree shows they're much more suited to small ball in their current guise, so I've decided it'd make more sense (at least financially) to pursue that strategy instead.
As you can see we're already strong in most of the small ball statistics, but our defense definitely lets us down.
I've been doing quite a bit of research via these forums, and have arrived at the following...
Batters
- Favour Contact, Gap Power, Avoid K, and Baserunning, 55+, minimum green
- High DEF
- Favour range over error
- Error 50+
- Strong outfield defense
Pitchers
- Favour Stuff and Control, 55+, minimum green
- Movement 50+
- Flyball

Strategy- Baserunning sliders towards aggressive
Should Global be set to either of the
Small Ball or
Moderate Small Ball templates?
Apart from the questions above, does this sound about right?
My current squad have shown they can hold their own in B227, so I'm happy to leave them to it this week and go about rebuilding for the following season if everything here checks out?
Finally, what positions do I need to carry more than one player for in the roster?
