Innings is literally the dullest grind imaginable, it's not a reason to play the game, it's something that just happens in the background when you play, like XP. March to October isn't DD. That just leaves moments and Showdown, neither of which use my DD team. (pretty debatable if they even are DD tbh, or whether they are just modes that give DD rewards, like Mto)
The only reason, as an offline player, to even own a team or any players, seems to be for playing conquest and just aimlessly racking up innings. That's my complaint, there is almost no content aimed at making playing offline, with your team, rewarding at all.
As for "what's left", just look back to previous years, where you had to accumulate stats with players from that team, you had to beat that team in 9 inning games on different difficulties, you had to rack up stats with certain players from that team that you unlocked along the way. There are a ton of things they could have done to make team affinities engaging, but instead it's just a mindless innings grind again. It's a background thing, which would be fine, if they had any foreground things at all for offline players

Agreed. I really miss that year that you unlocked different things by beating a team a certain number of times on each difficulty. That was always a nice change of pace when ranked made me throw my controller through a wall.
