Fantasy Mode

I heard Kris refer to PT as "Fantasy Mode" in one of the videos...What are the differences between fantasy mode & sim mode. I think I read that two are team chemistry & injuries are disabled, player salaries...Any other major differences?

No aging.

Position player fatigue is worse in PT, specifically to make having a bench a necessity. With the quality of the players and normal fatigue and no chance of injury, you could probably run a team with a 0 or 1 man bench. (Get 9 hall of fame batters, why would you ever want to sit them if they could play 162 games?)

The design wanted to make the rosters feel akin to real ballclub rosters, and the increased fatigue makes it necessary to have actual bench players.
