Learn to hit same handedness...
You clearly never played baseball before. It has NOTHING to do with being able to hit the same "handedness". It has EVERYTHING to do with being able to play your best lineup for that given situation. Baseball is a game of strategy. That's why people dont like it. They don't have the patience or mental capacity to follow along.

No -- in real baseball they know. So, no, it's not realism. It's the opposite.
Right the starting pitchers is known days before. Though it can change. Not realism at all. That sucks. There is no way to cheat. Its not like you can exit go get all Right handed baters vs a lefty pitcher then come back in that same match. This is so dumb.

So this is dumb you used to be able to on MLB 15 I believe. Also take the a pitcher throwing 102 every fast they throw is ridiculous. I don't care who it is Chapman Koepech whomever cannot throw 102 every single fast ball. They do throw 98 99 100 101 102 at the fastest. It should be only perfect releasing at there maximum speed potential.

Take the goop (spider tac) out of Diamond Dynasty like in real life has done. Ridiculous. Nobody except releivers can top out at 102 ever single fast ball. Its stupid. Please fix this MlB Show.

Just assume you are facing DeGrom, Ohtani or Cabrera.

This is my first year playing, so there are definitely things I don't get that Veteran players do...but this is the entire thing I don't get. I don't understand how there could me so many exploits and problems if you have to use your 26 man roster. There is no way I could back out and get more LH or RH bats and if one side decides they don't want to face the lineup the other person puts out there, they get a loss. I definitely see problems if you had access to all of your cards...but more than anything the argument that the current system is more realistic is just not valid.

No you can't back out and get more LH bats and come back to the same player, but you can back out until you get a pitcher you want to face(or handedness you want to face). You cannot give an auto loss for backing out either because there are other reasons for backing out at the lineup screen that are legit such as something in your life coming up or forgetting to switch from your conquest lineup(which I have done many times)

If people wanted a more realistic system there are ways it could be done. Having two default lineups is one. To your argument about accidentally having your conquest lineup selected...then there is a confirmation screen that pops up when you start a ranked game that says "please confirm this is your correct roster before entering the game...after this point the game will have started and you will receive a loss if you exit the game once it has started."

U should be able to set ur line ups with ur bench bats so swap after seeing the pitcher not two different line ups
-
The irony of people saying they want the realism of this "strategy" using HOF God squads.
-
Even if you knew what pitcher I was using and set your lineup accordingly, I'll just bring in a starter after 3 batters and you will be facing righty righty or lefty lefty anyways. They should never put this in the game. Terrible idea
-
Or just use all switch hitters if it really bothers y’all that much…
