Trentonjoe,
In real life, yes, my hitters had lots of SBs.
McCarthy 112/171, 65%
Stovey 90/144, 63%
Glasscock 80/128, 63%
Anson 71/110, 65%
Burke 47/72, 65%
McPhee 47/83, 57%
Denny 37/72, 51%
In the sim, my team stole 10 bases out of 12 attempts (all from my AAA outfielder). I set my SB setting to 0. I don't like stealing bases with guys with success rates below 70%. It's bad strategy.
