Mid cable pec fly [miscers who lift GTFIH]
I only have time for one fly exercise in my upper day. Is mid the best cable positioning?

Are you still doing a press before this?
Try this one, you feel it like a mofo. I just call it a pec crossover. I avoid flyes after bench because I just end up feeling it in my shoulder.

I find the added benefit of using cables for chest is maintaining the wobbles in the negative motion. Where with dumbells you can 'manage a drop' when lowering the weights, with cables you have to slightly resist the cables lowering to avoid them getting all wobbly. You're going to get the best results the more stretch you have.
Instead of doing standing crossovers, grab an incline bench and try to doing incline cable flies. When you're bored with those, you can set the bench at a 90 degree angle and do seated cables crossovers.

Either do it seated with a back rest or just use the pecdeck machine
