If they found a logical way to go about it, i think it could work. I don’t necessarily think you need to add more bench spots, but having to swap playing on and off your team due to fatigue mixes it up and brings another dynamic to the game. All for it

I think it's an awesome idea in theory, but I know that I'm wary of adding in yet another variable that has RNG ramifications

Would you guys be interested in seeing energy having an impact on positional players as well next year?
While many might say, “no way in he11” this could allow for some opportunities to use bench players a bit more, adding a bit of strategy.
Now, I am not saying they would need five games rest, but rather a game or two here and there.
I think that if it wasn’t overpowered it could be cool. The less energy they have, some attributes dip slightly. Would make the durability factor in the game actually mean something.
The only thing that I could see make sense and be reasonable is energy effecting a position player's speed.
For example, if you have Ty Cobb on first base and attempt to steal with him four pitches in a row, but your batter foul's off all four, then realistically, he would be somewhat winded and his speed (as slight as it may be) would be slower than if he made it down there on the first try. Same idea if Ty Cobb is sprinting as fast as he can and beats out and gets an infield hit. He may be a bit winded if he attempted to steal on the very next pitch vs. a scenario where he walked on four pitches and attempted to steal on the very next pitch. Hoping that makes sense.
Aside from that, they don't really do anything to impact their energy level. Pitchers are obviously the only ones that exhaust energy every single pitch. That's why position players remain in the starting lineup throughout the year, so as long as they avoid injury and maintain performance level, but never because of energy or being 'tired.'

What they should have is a system to commend your opponents and you would get rewards for accumulating such commendations. It might cut down on some online shenanigans.
They did this years ago before DD, where you rated your opponent based on the in game experience. They removed it because sore losers would abuse it and damage your reputation which could ultimately lead to a temporary ban of online play if you reached a certain reputation level. I think bringing it back would be great if the SDS team would actually review the game footage and determine whether a bad game rep was actually warranted.

The problem with that is, that takes a lot of manpower to manually review game footage, even if we were talking about Madden and EA level of employees, it still would be not enough manpower.

I don’t disagree, I was just pointing out that they had reputation system years ago but dumped it because of the abuse. The only way to eliminate the abuse is to have oversight of the system and yes that would require manpower that is probably best used elsewhere.

Anything that could lead to a ban that is unwarranted, is a horrible idea. Therefore, the removal was the appropriate action taken.

Personally I'd rather see lineups vs RHP/LHP. It would give some credence to platooning a players rather than strictly being a bench bat

The key is to only have the option to leave positive commendations no negative. Then reward people every month or so for having accumulated positive commendations.

Sore losers will not give positive rating either
