As much as I don’t want it, it’s going to be Jeter
My first thought was Jeter.
But when you think about it, Clemente makes alot of sense.Next year will be MLB the Show 21 and Clemente was THE #21.
He is a universally loved player.
Would make a huge splash with X-Box coming into the fold.I don't however think his card will be end game. He wasn't fast and didn't have power

Legendary cover lol. Realistically I think Tatis because he has that fun vibe and is the future for the MLB
-
I think it is going to be a Covid mask. The only player to be on the cover after they retired was Griffey in 17

He did have speed, he just did not steal much in his career. He was a consistant double digits triples hitter.
He would be 99 across the board defensively.
With High contact and vision #'s
The power would be lower, the Great One "only" hit 240 HRs, but remember he played the vast majority of his career at Forbes and that park was huge, especially to left. -

There's absolutely no doubt Jeter would be their cover guy... IF they shell out the coin for his rights.
Edit: I can see SDS paying a lot to get him. Especially since they'll need the marketing to promote the game on all platforms for next season.
-
Hank Aaron, it would definitely move units and going into new platforms next year they need a face that's universal to all baseball fans. Jeter/Clemente would work as well.
-
Tatis as the cover , they can make us preorder for a nice little 99 Tatis.
Clemente I Hope is next years Mantle..along with Henry Aaron And F. Robinson

If somebody could run a comb through his hair and make him presentable for civilization, that bearded freak out in mountains is having a monster year and could deserve it. I’m seeing an opportunity for a makeover rom-com musical, “My Fair Nazty.”
-
If it’s a current player? Tatis Jr, Acuña are my front runners.
If they’re introducing a new legend like Hank Aaron or Clemente, I don’t see why it wouldn’t be them.

Only one option based on the events of this year: Fauci

Edit: I think that would be hilarious. -

Clemente that is the only correct answer.
I hope too, he deserves alot of credit for being the 1st latino player, humanitarian and great ball player. Does he have a special day like Jackie Robinson? I know it's different circumstances but not much. Bring him into the show!!!

Do they already have the cover player chosen? -

Do they already have the cover player chosen?I have a feeling that SDS plans things way in advance. Just look at the sheer amount of conent we get and the extra surprises they drop on us (Prestige XP Path for example). No way is this thrown together at the last minute.
But are they so far ahead that they have a cover athlete picked? I doubt it, they need to have the season play out some more.
ALSO, they need to be sure that the prospective cover athlete is willing to "do the work" of being a cover athlete. PR, photo shoots, interviews, etc. It is almost like winning a beauty pageant, the winner will have certain obligations to fulfill. -
