Re: Pitcher/Batter tendencies...are they in The Show?

It's been my observation that the CPU will definately expose your flaws as the controlled player, but only in extremely obvious patterns. For me, it's also pretty clear that the CPU is programmed to cue off of your timing grades because if you are on a pitch, (even if swung+missed) you're unlikely see the same pitch again. All of this also probably differs depending what level you play on.

As for hitters, I hardly notice tendencies about them, I look for them in players but don't get the feeling it's at all there. Their attributes are more noticeable than tendencies. Tendencies such as, swinging happy near the zone, or being extremely patient at the plate even to a fault, first pitch/early count attackers.... I've never noticed, gotten an indication that the game exercises player specific batting tendencies. I would say attributes are carrying most of the weight. If that's right I hope it will begin to change over the next few years.
