Hey guys I know that watching games is lame but there are times when I just want to get rid of a few games. I was wondering if anyone has found some decent settings for watching a game? Thanks.

What do you mean by "getting rid of a few games"?

Basically if I am doing homework or something and can't play a game at the moment I can just throw on a game and have the computer play the game. I don't like the quick sim option I like watching the games play out if I can't play the game.

Someone there's an option(I think it's In display settings) that says "behind pitcher"
it's not easy to play like that, but it looks cool to watch it

No I want the computer to play both teams... I was wondering if there was settings that made the stats somewhat realistic...

You mean the option to watch the games doesn't give realistic enough stats?

Or use the option set specifically for watching CPU vs CPU games.

Although it can be found by looking for a minute in the options menu, it hasn't been posted so...

Options --> Controller Setup --> Game Progress, set to: Watch.

I know there is the watch option and I have used it but the games don't come out to realistic. I thought maybe someone else did this kinda stuff here and had a good beat on the right settings..

I know you can put everything on auto but then there is normal, allstar and so on.

i had a feeling that that was the question but if i ever watch games, I make fielding powerful, batting all-star and pitching expert
When pitcher's are on powerful then they;re impossible to hit and it doesnt make it a great game to watch

I will give those settings a try.. The thing is I kinda have a stacked team and with the settings I have used the scores are normally high for both sides even with a top starter pitching for me. :)

Na I like watching the full game with the graphics and everything.. I played around with the settings last night and I found some settings that where pretty good. I just wish stamina on pitchers was a little bit better. I know it depends on who you have up there pitching and how hard they get hit and every thing but guys with B stamina having good games can hardly make it to the 7th Inning. I am guess there is no way to change this at all eh?

I did a watch game yesterday, and my B Stamina pitcher made it to the end of the 8th inning.
