The answer to your first is, there are females playing college baseball right now and are expected to enter the draft when eligible for it.
To your second- MLB doesn't allow it.Olivia Pichardo?
Last recorded batting average of .128 for the 2024 season? Is that who you're referring to? -
@Dolenz_PSN It is clearly woke nonsense. It’s one thing highlighting the stars of the negro leagues when some moved on to be stars in the MLB. It’s another thing to highlight a woman who was never good in that league and a gender that has never sniffed the major leagues. The issue for me is that they clearly spent the majority of their time and resources doing it when no asked for it and it’s mostly irrelevant. This game has a lot more pressing issues and this year’s development cycle was wasted. Those female college players are a publicity stunt and if any of the get drafted, it will also be a publicity.

And you came to that conclusion how?
Are we assuming that they took programmers away from the gameplay engine to put breasts on a character model and write a storyline in RTTS? Yes, they added in hair physics but with the number of male players sporting long hair these days that was kind of needed anyway.
I highly doubt that it took the amount of effort you seem to think it did. I also believe that without Toni Stone we would have the same exact game we have today anyway. Because, other than the player model, hers is just another card with attributes like any other player. 1 player out of probably 1,500 total (that's like 0.06%). And I would say her attributes are no more unrealistic than the many draft players or pipeline players who get boosted stats.

Will they be good enough to be drafted?and if so actually make it through the minors to play in mlb?
Who knows.i do think MLB is trying to get out in front of it in case it does happen -

Well, to be honest, SDS are at the mercy of MLB so yes, in the future it could be forced on them. It may not be likely, but it is possible.

@Dolenz_PSN Well, then what is the excuse for no big name new legends and largely unchanged gameplay? No new modes. What other improvements were made from last years game? Where else did their time and resources go?

@PAinPA_PSN She was the first D1 woman. She’s not a starter and frankly terrible and doesn’t deserve a roster spot.

Where are those things any year? What improvements were made from 22 to 23, or 21 to 22?
I've been around long enough that some years we don't get splashy big name legends or new game modes. What was the last new mode we got? Co-op? How many years ago was that.
Maybe I am wrong, but other than her in game model, I just don't see her presence as being resource intensive. As I said, when we play the game she is just another card with the same set of attributes that dictate her play.
It could be that I am wrong but it is one of those things neither of us will ever know with 100% certainty because SDS won't tell us.

@Dolenz_PSN Negro leagues and storylines last year. Co op the year before. Mini seasons before that. Improved gameplay from year to year before this year. McGwire and Sosa last year. Jeter and Randy recently. This was by far the most disappointing year in terms of new legends and improvements. I’ve been playing this game since before it was the show.

Fair point. I guess I don't put as much stock into those legend introductions so I don't remember them all. While I would love some of my favorite Cardinals added in, a few legends as a general rule doesn't move the needle for me very drastically.
I still don't believe for a second that adding Toni Stone is the cause of the issues this year.
I've been playing since 2006 or maybe 2007 as I know I had a PSP version originally.

@MVP1980-_PSN well … there were women in baseball, maybe you should have done the moment. Bad way to start an argument and never get listened to again

There was also midgets. The best we have is Altuve. Why can't we have midgets or MC Hammer as a child? They too played professionally.
Animals have played professional baseball but we don't have cards for animals do we? Why not. We should. They were playing wether YOU remember them or not.Shoot, there is an entire televised league for children. Why aren't we playing MLB Little League the Show? Kids played baseball too didn't they? and they work very hard to do so. Like super duper mega hard work and effort! Ground breaking work you might say!
