Locking positions means that you only play the at-bats of the player you chose, so you're looking at maybe 4-5 at bats in a game. You also have the option to play the situations where your chosen player is involved on defense. (ex: if you choose Josh Donaldson, you'll be tasked with fielding any ground balls or pop ups to third base)

Did I toggle an option that disables the swing feedback, or is this a bug?

I believe it's a bug, try this for a workaround: http://www.operationsports.com/forum...&postcount=754

What kind of TV are you playing on? If it has it, turn on game mode, that should help the input lag issue.

Lol. Yea it has by me. Back a couple of pages. Long story short, turn on pitch selection. Save and then turn it back off.

Can someone explain how Battle Royale works? I thought you were entering into Round Robin Tourneys? Or do you just try and win as many games as you can before 2 losses knocks you out? The more wins the better the rewards?

Does anyone notice a huge lag when checking the runners on base (while you are pitching).

In previous editions the left trigger let you look at the runners almost instantaneously, in 16 it there is a long delay when trying to check the runners.

Yes. It's been mentioned multiple times in this thread and the impressions thread.

I'm sorry if this has been asked before but can you not press "L2" in RttS to catch balls manually anymore? I liked this as I felt it made playing defense more challenging and interactive, if it got taken out that bums me out a little. Also can anyone explain Showtime hitting to me? Do you only have to time your swing correctly (when the bigger reticle shrinks to the same size as the ball) or do you have to move your aim reticle over the ball as well (I'm playing with Zone hitting)?
