MLB 2K7 had Tris Speaker. 18 years later, SDS still doesn't have him. Goes to show lol.I'm not going to lie. Part of me wonders if I would take the tradeoff of The Show being EA/2K levels of scum if it meant I could have most of the 86 Mets, or guys like Turk Wendell
And I know where I fall on that and we will just leave it at that.

It's not just about having the rights to put them in the game. I think they could put any player in the game that they wanted by just using the stats. The thing that holds back these players from being in The Show is the likeness rights. These are separate than just using the name and stats.
Out of the Park has the entire history of baseball? How? They don't use likenesses of all the players. Here are the Babe Ruth cards for their perfect team mode (which in my opinion is really pay to win). No faces means no likeness rights needed.
I don't think believe for a minute that the vast majority of The Show players would be happy with players that don't look like they actually do or did.

I guess it's better than not having them all. Like you said, make the player look very similar with his stats but use a random name and give the players the option to customize him to his real likeness. -

I dont want to see deformed head Ichiro, female Barry Bonds, white Jackie Robinson, or worst of all skinny Bartolo Colon.
And players would absolutely do all of those things.

We need @SDS_JoeK_PSN to pass this along to the team.

These players are in the player vault.

Go to the player vault for those players you want offline like Tris Speaker. I assume you know about the vault.

I think EA is actually prepping to get back into the baseball game, no pun intended. Them buying SMB was likely a stepping stone, as it gives them a baseball skeleton to build off of.
I wouldn't be opposed to them making another NCAA baseball game either
I’d buy an MLB game from EA. Not college. I didn’t care for either of the ones they made. I also wouldn’t expect miracles after NBA Live disappointed me.

@fubar2k7_PSN
Yeah but it’s not like having the players real life stats. -

Yeah but it’s not like having the players real life stats.You mean the ratings? The ratings they assign don’t really seem to align to real life anyways in some instances. Some of those use created rosters and players are better and more reflective to actual player performance.

Idk man, I'd just prefer something official, y'know? -

Why are people obsessed with posting personal game reviews on the forum? Is anyone really logging into the forums late August to read game reviews? Shouldn’t reviews with the Title of the game look at more than a single game mode?
This is just a way to complain and vent simply. I know it , you know it and the OP knows it too.

Hey listen, that's your opinion. I'm not a [censored] professional critic so don't get all technical with me. Diamond Dynasty is the main mode of MLB The Show, the only one I play, this is under the subtitle Diamond Dynasty, and quite frankly, this is the mode that brings SDS the most money. Sorry if I wasn't specific enough to fulfill your needs. And also, it clearly seems that you took the time to read my reviews, so are you trying to call out other people there, because you're not exempt either. -

I would hope SDS is, but really this forum is so small its of questionable value.
I think posting ideas for improvement is better, but those type of posts get little traction I feel

I'm trying to figure out why the OP just didn't bump the Pt 1. thread instead of starting two new threads.

@x-814-x-MAFIA-x_PSN
Too long of a post doesn't get much traction either.
