Do the stats for the players change over time in this mode? I am not completely sure if they do but I don't really see it. But I feel it might make this mode a bit more interesting if they got some adjustments, up or down, over time.

Attributes can change for the live cards in several ways. The first is an adjustment by the team based on recent performance. These are done in batches every few weeks. I think there is only one more scheduled to happen before the season ends.

Inside edge. These are daily adjustments based on conditions on a given day. For example if a hitter rakes against a pitcher he is scheduled to face that day he will get a boost to his hitting stats just for that day.

Oh and one more, they supercharge cards based on noteworthy performances. Pujols live card is boosted because he hit his 700th HR. Meanwhile Kolten Wong was boosted for hitting 3 HRs in a single game.

I don't know why but I get upset at check swings. But I know I get annoyed whenever they do a check swing on a hittable pitch. It's in the zone, good PCI, swing timing is "good", yet they check. Bonus points if it's a strikeout. I also have some issues about PCI but that's a topic for another day.

I don't know what triggers a check swing exactly, I don't know what else influences when it happens. All I know is that I just want these players to swing. But check swings mainly get on my nerves if it possibly would've been a good hit.

Also I'm never gonna get "They say he went" out of my head.

Check swings are a joke. It is the only tool we have against 102 pitchers and it doesn't even work. At least in switch where Im playing lately since I needed a mobile way to play.

I can confirm you can ignore it. Sometimes I have trouble picking up the pitchers delivery and usually after the first pitch they don't ask you to go a second time unless they are really wanting to avoid a double play.

That’s because in 21, there were a million Diamond Ballplayer packs in the program reward paths.

22, not so much.
