After playing heavily for a week, I'm giving up. This game has the potential to compete with the other game. Pitching and batting with the sticks is more engaging than with buttons. Here are a few things I liked and disliked. I've played every installment of every baseball franchise for the past ten years.

The Good:

- Pitcher/batter interaction is improved from 2k9 (as long as the human is pitching) and is the best I've seen in a 2k baseball game.
- The game feels smooth.
- Presentation is very good. Commentary/statistic overlays rival any game.
- My Player mode is addictive.
- Fielding is vastly improved from the terrible fielding of 2k9.

The Bad

- Lack of variety in hits.
- Abysmal graphics.
- Broken Franchise Mode
+ Lack of trades.
+ Free Agency is broken due to unrealistic contracts
+ Simulated statistics are unrealistic.
- Overly aggressive CPU batters.
- Lack of difficulty in My Player mode.

I look forward to buying 2K11. 2K10 is a decent baseball game, almost good, it's headed in the right direction, but I can't handle the stagnant franchise mode and goofy gameplay. I'll pick it up again if a patch fixes contracts/stats in franchise mode.
