I’m just done with all you guys that think you’re so cool. I asked a question. Instead of giving your opinion just answer the question.
its not an opinion my dude, they removed the ability to check swing. That's a fact.
An opinion based question would be: "Do you like the changes that SDS made to check swinging, or do you prefer the previous system"?
“Made it better” that’s an opinion.
This is why there should be a minimum age requirement for forum use.
You're first post was "What the heck did they do to check swings?"
That is a question of fact, not opinion. You should cover that in 8th grade English, so no fault of your own, keep studying and hitting the books, you'll be there in another year.

Awesome. Just like 98% of the stuff they teach you in school and you don’t use in the real world. Cool man. Thanks for the sweet stuff there. Don’t need to prove myself to you.

Bro look man. I graduated college, I own a home, two cars, work a full time job, and run a successful eBay business. I think I’m doing pretty good for myself. Because I enjoy making the occasional “your mom” joke ( as I do quite regularly), does not mean I’m not successful. Now stick your little disc in your moms playstation

Without check swings, I am nothing.

And honestly just to say something about your comment. You don’t have to be book smart in order to be successful. That’s a load of you know what. You have to strive to be better, be more determined, work hard, and not take no for an answer. Book smarts are a joke.

I’m not arguing with you there brother. I’ve long been a proponent in believing being street smart is more important

@sweetj57_psn said in Check Swing:
What the heck did they do to check swings?
Since none of the other answers were up to your standards, I’ll give it a go.
Last year you could check swing on every pitch and have 95% not get called a swing. This year they have made it more difficult to do that.
How many guys in the majors have you seen check swing multiple times a game let alone an at bat and get the call almost every time? Pretty sure the ump would call one a swing just because. -

It’s way more important. There is nothing worse than an educated idiot

Not normally multiple times an at bat. Every at bat

But to get back on topic, last year, especially higher divisions, it was abused. Some players would check swing every single pitch that wasn’t a FB (I wish I was exaggerating but I’m not). This year is way more realistic. I’ve had games last year where the opponent check swung 50+ times a game and have it be a strike 2-3 times max. That’s extremely unrealistic

I agree it was abused. However, it’s too nerfed. They need to find a happy medium. I think I’ve been successful on check swings maybe 10% of the time.
