how hard is it to play mlb life with a player who is just created on MLB Life and under the HARDEST difficulty?

Its quite difficult. I tried it, but i was very inconsistent because of my horrible contact. It is very difficult to hit the ball and i have to use power swing just to get a single.

im thinking of having the ability "great contact" and fast runner, because basically under hard im not gunna have much chances for HR's

Basically your first couple years you have to hit for singles and get steals to establish yourself in the bigs and max out your contact and speed (this takes like 2-3 years at the most). Meanwhile you play golf and use protein to build up your power. Once your power gets to like 125 you can start hitting for power.
It actually isn't that hard because in AAA the cpu level is only on all-star so you can see where the pitch is being thrown. Just try to hit to the opposite field or right back through the box, waiting for outside pitches, and you will get enough hits to do well even with a crap mlb life player.
It also helps to pick a position where your team doesn't have a good player.
