    This is my first time ever playing MLB The Show '21 and I'm quite enjoying it. However, there are three issues I do have post update:

    1. The Manager only calls for me to steal bases with my power archetypes. I'm to the point where I don't try when the steal is called. What sucks more is that my teammate at the plate always strikes out when I ignore the signal. He never calls for me to steal when I'm using a speed archetype. This is especially troublesome to me because stealing bases are part of progressing under the speed archetype.

    2. Why is there no run support when I'm pitching in RTTS? My team has scored at most 3 runs when I pitch.

    3. As a batter, I always receive +1 in vision but -2 in discipline when a questionable strike 3 is called. The discipline should only decrease by one since it is a strikeout.

    All points are valid.

    Regarding stealing - steal even though you are not given the signal. When on your speed archetype that is. Eventually you'll get called into the office and defend yourself - you'll get the permanent green light. Regarding being told to do so when your power guy is playing - it sucks. I saw the same thing. The batter will not swing the bat. So, I say steal anyway even knowing you are going to likely get thrown out. Just try and get a good jump so you get a +stealing bonus - those add up over time. Don't worry about the manager being an idiot - outside your control.

    Regarding pitching and lack of run support - yeah - I've had a lot of 2-1 or 1-0 games with my pitcher that just don't happen when playing a different archetype. And I dread when a "dynamic challenge" happens - those are basically like a bat signal saying "you are about to fail"...

    Regarding batting - striking out should not be a -discipline unless you did so swinging at a pitch outside the strike zone. If the pitch is inside the strike zone, it should be a -vision if you took it and a -contact if you swung and missed.
