Why has there been no news of a new patch yet?

You’re right. They have a lot to fix, including pitching. To me hitting is passable but pitching and defense are ruining the game.

They have to fix the okay and not JUST a fielding patch. This is ridiculous.
I wouldn’t get your hopes up for much change to hitting.
-
Hitting is exactly where they want it. which is why they aren't changing it
-
Because it’s playing how they wanted it to until the mlb players started complaining about how bad it is
-
So what did they fix? The game updated. It's too bad because I really want to play the game. It's so bad with the fielding, batting and pitching the way it is now.
-
Ok normally I dont like to complain about the game and have been hating seeing all the posts about the bad defense, but I am officially upset. I just had two consecutive plays where I was camped under the ball and both weren't caught. One of those bounced right off the outfielders head. I hope the new patch comes quick and really fixes it.

I legit lost a game to an inside the parker in the Boltom of the 9th because of that. Ball hit Betts straight in the jibbs and must have concussed him because he wouldn’t pick up the ball and the batter (40 speed) pranced around the bases.

Nothing yet. No patch notes have been announced. Not even a timeline of when it will be implemented.

Thanks Trevor May!

Hitting is fine, just harder than last year. I have about the same stats as in 19, except last year my outs were 105mph lineouts; now they’re Ks or weak contact.

Exactly how they want it is squaring up meatballs and having them be lazy fly outs?

Because whatever the issue is, they haven't found how to fix it yet. That's the obv answer on no patch. Whether that's because of real-life circumstances, them just completely screwing up fielding coding and it's a mess to fix etc I don't know.
For now, I'm limiting how much time I play so I don't get mad. Been playing some Simcity and Civ 6 to pass the time
-
They're taking their time with this one so they don't mess it up again. It's also harder to change and test their code if they're not on site I'm assuming. We just gotta be patient with them. Game play will get better soon.
-
As long as they permanently fix it this time they can take their sweet time. If they rush another patch there is going to be hell to be paid
-
When a patch goes in the players don't like
"Curse you SDS, you patched too quickly and did not properly test it enough to get it right"
When the players want something patched
"Curse you SDS, you patching too slowly. Just throw the patch out there right now."

Different circumstances.
The patch they implemented too quickly wasn’t trying to fix a major gameplay flaw. They had a knee [censored] reaction to statistics which is a no-no. Baseball is all about sample size and it includes this game as well.

Okaying up meatballs*

I just remember how the fielding is the exact same as last years start of the year...they seemed to have it reasonably fixed at the end of the year yet somehow it reset to the garbage beginning state from last year which is what I don't understand

Not sure what game you are playing but I can't throw strikes without them being down the middle and a ton of them are HR's. I feel like a HR derby pitcher. Ball rarely goes where I put it even with good input.

I agree the first patch was rolled out far to quickly. I don’t think they realized the following they have of players and how good even the non streamer players are. I’ve always thought in previous games I was a better hitter then the output and when I heard about perfect perfect I was like ok we will see if I’m right. Until the first patch I was just tearing the cover off which I assume most ppl were. I really don’t think they anticipated the overall number of ppl who would be hitting this way. So in there eyes they needed to patch because there is no way this many ppl could be this good. I think a lot had to do with twitch streamers going against ppl and not steam rolling them so they started complaining and SDS took there complaints and data as something must be up and made a rather quick patch that might be unrepairable. I’m still enjoying the game cause I enjoy the game as a whole always and it’s my time waster. But that is my opinion on what happened.
