    I hope next year that online goes to using the DH. Pitchers hitting online or at all is a waste of time.
    Can we please not allow a pitching change after throwing a pitch unless due to injury. That's not real baseball, so if this is supposed to be as close to the real thing please get rid of that.

    My big thing is that there has to be some way that pitching needs to be more difficult. I mean it's so easy to throw strikes ALL the time. Throwing balls on purpose seems to be unreasonable.
    Maybe make hitting more difficult, ND this is from somebody who is terrible at hitting, but I think if pitching was more difficult it could balance hitting.
    I hope that I am explaining this right.
    Anyway that's my take from this year.

    I highly doubt the incorporate a DH. And if they did, to keep with the roster requirements, you would have one less bench bat.

    But you may say that they do it in the real MLB.

    Well, DD ISNT real MLB. It's an arcade version.

    Where in there real MLB can you field 8 closers and no relief pitchers like you can in DD?

    Where in the real MLB can you play 3 inning, or even 6 inning, games?

    Where in the real MLB can you turn in Quick Counts where the better comes up to the plate and already is facing a 2-2 count?

    Technically, there is no rule about the 2nd thing. Just because they don't doesn't mean SDS should make a rule to not allow it, because technically then it isn't real baseball

    You can change a pitcher after one pitch in real world mlb games, even without an injury. The pitcher must have faced either three hitters, or closed out an inning.

    No you can’t. There’s a 3 batter minimum in DD too unless an injury or they finish an inning.

    He addressed that, when OP is talking about one pitch, it just means in an at-bat, not the first pitch of the game for that pitcher.

    So like if I pitched to three batters threw a ball on the 4th one and decided I didn't like his control and took him out. That kind of situation is being addressed

    I'd like to see the auto shift go away in Ranked. if you want to shift...you have to implement it yourself for each batter.

    I don’t mind when people use the shift because they usually don’t pitch into the shift. Easy doubles going the other way. I’ve noticed people using them a lot less this year.

    I turn auto shift off. I also like pitchers hitting. It brings a little strategy to late in the game situations.

    Main Topic: start from scratch and learn the art of creating a legit baseball game. Content wise they are at the top. Gameplay….they are at the bottom in a tier of their own.

    Amen, some people can throw a strike any time they want with any pitcher they want. The main issue is that there is no penalty for missing the meter. If you miss on the meter it just falls off the plate for a ball. There needs to be penalties for missing on accuracy. There is no such thing as a meatball in this game. It really sucks the fun out of the game to be honest.

    If you cant pull a 98 mph sinker off the black you may as well uninstall the game.

    They better think of something big to not lose a lot of market shares to NCAA football next yr. I'm already thinking about my al bundy days from 07-08 ncaa football.

    Can they put legit batters eyes in ALL parks. Laughing mountain in the day (like many others is ridiculous). Make the green board bigger, it's a fake stadium anyways.

    Heck, Fenway Park closes off part of their center field bleachers and puts a black tarp over them because they realize how important it is.

    When you put a hitter on the mound make it more realistic.

    Know the rules of the game. I. E. If a ball touches a player in foul territory and lands in fair territory the ball is fair. (Lost a hit because of this last night)
