Does anybody know if the "steal more" setting for hitters... A) just increases the frequency of that runner TRYING to get the good lead/jump & his higher steal score before stealing B) Attempts more steals whether the runner gets his optimal "lead/jump" or not C) Still requires a probable success rate in sending the runner D) Any/all of the above?
For instance, if a runner needs a 2 to get his optimal jump and an 18 steal rating -- but only has an 8 steal rating without the jump -- will "steal more" cause him to try low % steal attempts even when he doesn't get the good lead/jump benefit? If anybody knows for sure, I'd be grateful to know too.Thanks!
Thanks, that sounds about right as I have had/seen some runners being thrown out trying to steal third when it didn't make a lot of sense to even try that.
Yeah, I see a lot of illogical attempts to steal third even without Steal More set. It would be nice if you can specify 2nd and 3rd aggressiveness separately.
I never use the Steal More setting. When I did, I started having C stealers stealing home, probably on a 1-2 chance. Unless it was a Never Steal runner like Sherm Lollar, it was steal much too often.
