So a guy who played 60 games is the cover athlete? Standards for what I expect on the game are extremely low now.
Come on, He has played 1.25 seasons so far certainly he deserves it more than the likes of Goldy, Freeman, Ramirez, Trout, Scherzer, Verlander, Arenado, etc etc
While there are certainly better choices, I have to imagine there are players who are asked that pass on it. A lot of the more veteran players may not want to go through the hassle of flying out to San Diego and doing photo shoots etc. A younger player may be more likely to do it to build their brand and Im sure there is some kind of payout to do it. It's possible they went through a few players before someone said yes.
If they have an exclusive rights deal with the players union, do they really need a current players permission?

This just further demonstrates the disconnect sds has with its fan base.

My question is why is his primary position CF?

Just goes to further prove my point that SDS doesn’t even watch baseball and picked jazz because he’s a fanboy
Possibly, but the reveal "show" was so cringey that I think it was far more embarrassing than choosing Chisholm. Bringing in an NBA player to hype a baseball game? Really? They could have ponied up the money to get at least one MLB player that is an actual player of the show. Heck they could have even used it to set a false flag for the cover athlete.
The feed was running non stop with "nobody cares what this guy has to say" and "just show the stinking cover"
Imagine the scene Blake Snell or Julio Rodriguez is doing the interview instead, and the SDS guy says "so, how do you feel about being on the cover of the game?" and have the athlete goes "great, but it's actually (holds up large posterboard of actual cover).
Far more entertaining than what we got instead.
The stream was awful. No disagreement there.
I had Shelfy on Twitch on my I-Pad and the Facebook group feed on my phone.
Everyone was either whining or cracking jokes about the wait. One guy said he missed his flight watching, lolz -

Technically they may not need their permission but they generally do photo shoots promotional material etc which would require at least a few trips out to the studio. I just think a more veteran player who may not be all that into video games may not be all that interested.

Being IN a video game and being ON a video game are two different things and requires two different rights deals.

the awkward thing to me is he will likely be a gold for most of the year since he put up next to no stats this year and i don't think he is a great player when you put his numbers into game attributes. Of course I expect him to be completely juiced because cover boy but I personally rather wait until future stars to juice a bunch of no names. At this point though why not put someone like Jackson Holliday on the cover. At least then we can get matt holliday back in the game for more fathers day content

If we HAVE to have a Marlin, I'd much rather have...

No one knows who this guy is
Weird how much “hate” there is for Jazz and him getting the cover
I wonder why…(I think I have an idea)

all people do is complain. Jazz is awesome with the mlb the show community, fun and exciting to watch, who cares that hes not the best, this is awesome for marketing and growing Jazz's name but also educates newer baseball fans.

yes, to inform or give intellectual, moral, or social instruction. People on this forum are the biggest whiners man, it's so weird to constantly complain, like it's 100 percent warranted at SDS but [censored], to non stop complain and whine every single day. Weirdo energy.

its the same people that whine on here on a daily basis, saying that this is their "final year" playing only by May to see a constant thread of them complaining about how bad game play is and how they "wont be playing next years version". The cover looks sick, the art is awesome, the game comes out earlier than expected, lighten up folks.

Yep 100% agree- it’s a great cover with a young exciting mlb player! I love it

If you get "intellectual, moral or social instruction" like the guy said above, merely from a choice of cover athlete for a game, you need to really educate yourself.

It's a terrible cover. Chisholm looks like a clown in that pose. He could potentially be one of the most exciting players in the game, but so far hasn't proven he can stay healthy enough to do it.
I said I wasn't going to get 22 and I didn't. I still have a lot do on 20 and 21, and it just seemed like a pricey roster update and a fresh coat of paint.
I am a weak hitter, so I doubt I will get the stuff done I need before it is too late in the season to start 23, even if it turns out to be a great game. I would just wait for the next season, because honestly, unless radical changes are made to graphics, sound, and game play most sports games are a pricey roster update and fresh coat of paint.
