Thank god the AI has stopped walking people on purpose to set up double plays now. OOTP forum people thought that was a great strategy

Trade logic, free agency. It's improved a lot over the years but I thought some areas need improvement.

They value relievers in a weird way. Like teams will pay big bucks for one and then want to trade them because they cost too much almost immediately. So if you have payroll, it doesn't take much to get one. I also felt like relievers should fluctuate much more than they do (talent randomness I guess).

I would also like teams that are contending to make a push to fill holes at the deadline. And for teams out of it to push to add prospects in return for their veterans. Too often see a first place team trade a good player for some prospects. Just not happening in real life.

In-game is fine. They didn't handle matchups well but like you said, the three batter rule should fix that.
