Takes too long to swing

I just played my first online game a couple minutes ago. I wasn't very impressed. Right away the other player switched the hitting to Classic. I went along with it. I noticed that it takes a LONG time for the game to react when you hit swing. You pretty much have to decide if you are going to swing immediately when the ball leaves the pitchers hand.

Another thing, if you play online are you cursed with the pitchers fatigue problem? Or can I go and adjust that before the game starts?

And even though it says the rosters are updated til March 22nd, they werent as updated as they should be.

I just had to adjust to the swing timing of the online game. After i got that down i was hitting him left and right.
