    I really hope they announce if the DH is added. I want to pre-order my game if it is.

    I'm kinda on the opposite end of that. Gonna make my bench players and bullpen mean so much less than before. But SDS won't know about DH or not until MLB and MLBPA come to an agreement and put it on paper and sign it.

    It’s confirmed to be a part of any CBA.

    Should we assume that the stream will be ready by bedtime for people on the east coast?

    Not confirmed until it's confirmed. There are no verbal confirmations. Will have to wait until they come to an agreement

    So in regards to different fielding animations with lower overall fielding players or lower overall arm accuracy players I’m wondering if they got rid of those Derek jeter jump throws from 3rd that players who had no business doing were doing . Previous years it didn’t matter who was fielding, every player could pull off those very difficult jump throws from 3rd and get it perfectly to 1st no matter their fielding ability or arm strength/accuracy. I really hope that’s fixed.

    There are no verbal confirmations lol. Has to be agreed, written, and signed. Right now its all just talk. It will be there when they are finished negotiating, but that hasnt happened yet. Just because you are on a plane to Fiji, doesnt mean you are in Fiji. 😄

    The game that Sony is putting out this year is supposed to represent the MLB product in 2022. It needs to at least have the option for the DH. They can’t just ignore that addition until next years game.

    Great stream. Thanks Chris and Kyle. Some really good changes made to the user interface, especially dynamic PCI, PAR accuracy variations and perfect throws to all bases.

    They can if it isn't an MLB rule. And technically as of now it isn't a rule. They will make it happen if it happens most likely. Unless for DD they leave it as is for competition.

    Honestly, they're changing/upgrading the game VERY little.

    It is true, however, that they put a lot of effort into DD to make it an approachable and content-rich experience. That's where the vast majority of development resources go, I'd assume.

    I hate that that's the case, but it is.

    Another year of them not being able to please everyone. While I am still not convinced to buy it this year (I never preorder until all of the feature premieres are released) I appreciated the info that they shared.

    They showed actual stats. The explained the philosophy of early/late swings and showed examples of exit velocity. The made a change to the PCI so that it shrinks when chasing outside the zone. They said that pinpoint pitching should more difficult.

    But I am enough of a realist to know that even if they had reinvented the hitting engine from scratch that some people would be here complaining about it.

    Yep and I see your last paragraph and raise you ‘I’m enough of a realist to know that even though they’ve presented these things, gameplay may not actually be improved as intended’.

    Although those perfect throws… [censored] they looks awesome!

    Did anybody else notice the obscene typo in the dynamic PAR breakdown they showed? The list of which pitches are and are not affected by dynamic PAR

    Somebody’s muscle memory took over, methinks.

    not much change at all in the dynamic diamond mode i like how they did the starting line up with the base ball cards. should do that for all parts of the game.

    I don’t know where people get off saying this. It’s a game, not real life. As of now, the DH is in the AL and interleague and SDS doesn’t have that in the game. If they put it in, great, if they don’t, great. Who cares? I think it’s a thrill when my pitcher gets a good hit.

    I’d rather have a bench with 8-9 players like the Live teams do, now that would make the game more fun. Being able to use more of your cards on the same team.
