*List of Removed Legends for 2025*
-
@SakAttack87_PSN It seems there are roughly 10 more added to their database yearly, and with every player added, more memory is utilized (I've figured this out by moving around so many players in one session to make the game crash completely).
I still want to see proof that it's financial. And I still don't see why some players have two different versions, instead of just one. We all know that this game has serious declined in quality since it went to multiple platforms, and losing Legends is the last thing we want.
Those of us who Create Players, like myself, and have for almost a decade, have given up at this point, because we lose everything from the previous year, yet they allow the logos to remain. I like to create All-Time Franchise rosters, and we had a large community, but that's died off, and most of the crew doesn't bother to even buy this game anymore. So, we rely on keeping existing legends, only to see more added each year, not subtracted.

You want “proof” as if a private entity will open its finances. If it ain’t financial, what’s your theory, O wise one?

He doesn't have a theory. But it's definitely NOT the most obvious and logical explanation.

@DFC_MLBTS Yeah that was the straw that broke the camel's back. It's curious as to how they add 10 every year, but subtract a couple dozen.

Anyone know if longo is still around?

Longo just retired so he won't be in the game for a while
-
@America_69420_PSN Do you want him for DD or would you like to have an accurate CAP for him?
-
I usually have him for dd, one of my all time favorite players
-
@America_69420_PSN You can see how imbalanced the Legends are, yearly, from team-to-team. Tampa has Carlos Pena, that's it. Longoria could be back this year. Remember when Andre Dawson was plucked, only to return that very same year?
What's really interesting is how a studio from San Diego has so few Legends that coincide greatly with the Padres.
The least SDS can do is have CAPs remain, year-to-year.
-
@sbchamps17_NSW A while could be a couple of months. Darren O'Day just retired, and now he's a Legend.
-
Bring all the legends back
SSD got lazy. -

Just retired? His last game was almost 3 years ago.
-
@jverdejo28_MLBTS Something like that!

The one notable example that gives you hope is Curtis Granderson.
He retired after the 2019 season, but was still in The Show 20 and I'm pretty sure he's been featured in every installment since then.
What sucks is they will definitely leverage the bigger names. A guy like Pujols is someone who SDS can intentionally keep out of the game for a few years then present him as a new headliner Legend to entice sales.

Am I the only one not sad to see Banks go?
First let's separate real life and video games. In real life Banks is a monster figure in baseball, maybe Top 10 most influential players of all time.
But in game? I never could hit with him. Never. His swing was always terrible for me.
Cubs fans - I am VERY happy Billy Williams is back. One of the most underrated swings out there.
-
@dbub_PSN How is his swing "underrated"? Everything is underrated these days!
Ernie Banks should be there, every year, at least once copy of him. I'm happy Williams is still around, too.
I'm not sure why they're out there pushing all the steroid dudes, however. Clemens can go to Hell, as far as I'm concerned. Replace him with Fred McGriff, a player who should have never been dropped.
-
So can confirm that Schmidt isnt in the game via Team Affinity clubhouse missions (the optional ones)
Look at a team like the Rockies - Helton's milestones are called out
Then go to the Phillies, youll see Rollins name for one of the categories but the HR one? no name. Schmidt is goneCan't test banks but can confirm Cap Anson is not in the game I guess
Again, Schmidt is an inner circle elite guy. Should not be removed
-
@Teak2112_MLBTS If it turned out that Schmidt decided to ask for a comically high fee I'd understand, but he's been around since the earliest DDs that had legends?
-
If names not being in the game is the indicator that legends are removed, looking at the batting stances for legends in RTTS, this is gonna be an underwhelming year. Nate Schierholtz? Mike Rivera? Brandon Allen? Clint Barmes? Doug Mientkiewicz? Really?
They did say they had surprises coming later in the year....hopefully this isnt it.
