Maximizing Maury Wills

I've never had him before. And...of course...I know a lot depends on your opponents and who their catchers are...and the hold ratings of the pitchers...

But I'm sure some of you have "owned" Maury Wills a bunch of times...

What are the best settings to get the most out of him?

I never check the steal more box for anyone nor set team stealing to anything but normal--even with a Maury Wills? Why? HAL will steal third like crazy if you do (and I don't like the odds of stealing third in SOM).

Now if you don't mind too many caught stealings and your sole goal is to maximize steals, then by all means check the steal more on the Hitters page. However, you were warned!

You will get plenty of steal attempts (and mostly of second base) without checking the steal more box.

This is my opinion. I'm curious if others have had success with a more aggressive stance.
