I love baseball and I love this game.

I have been purchasing MLB The Show games every year.

But here is the reason I don't play DD online or any online games.

• Reason #1: The pitching is so slow due to I think online lag. The pitching is about 1/3 of the actual OFFLINE pitching speed. The pitching velocity is much more realistic when playing in another game mode OFFLINE. (Can this be fixed or am I missing something?)
• Reason #2: You CAN'T change the batting view camera when batting to broadcast or something similar to how you watch a baseball game on tv. All of these different camera angles are available when playing OFFLINE so why can't they be available when playing ONLINE?

I would love to play ONLINE and build my DD team to compete with the world but these things are such a deterrent for me that it takes the fun out of the game.

Can these settings be changed?

SD Studios PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE fix these issues so we can all have a much better online experiene.

Thank you!

Does anyone know how to put Ohtani in the starting lineup as a batter? It seems as though there is no option for this. Sucks.

Hello all,

Does anyone know how to correctly load one's CUSTOM ROSTERS when starting a new Franchise mode? I spent days customizing my starting rotations/bullpens and line-ups for all 30 teams. However, when I want to start my new FRANCHISE, I do have the option to play with default rosters, current rosters or load my own CUSTOM ROSTERS. I choose to play with my CUSTOM ROSTERS but when I look at the rosters they are NOT the ones I spent days customizing. They appear to be the default rosters. This is not cool! Can anyone help? Is this a bug? Thanks in advanced.
