Ethan Holliday?
-
If you’re not gonna add any top prospects scans can we at least get the Ethan Holliday scan? It’s been months and his scan is in DD but not the rest of the rosters… doesn’t make sense. I’m not sure if it’s incompetence or laziness but either way it’s pathetic.
Also, I’m really confused about the scans we did get.
Still missing CAM SCHLITTLER! NOLAN McLean !CHASE BuRNS! Seth Hernandez, bubba chandler, Braxton ashcraft, gage jump, Jamie Arnold, Kade Anderson, kyson Witherspoon, Peyton tolle, Connelly early, Parker messick, Elmer Rodriguez, Jake Bennett, Liam Doyle, Noah Schulz, Thomas white, Robby snelling, or JR Ritchie we got Brandon birdsell, Trevor McDonald, Ricky vanasco, and Ben kurdna?
Instead of catchers like Drake Baldwin, Samuel basallo, Carter Jensen, cooper ingle, Moises ballesteros, Ethan Salas, Liam hicks, and edgar quero we got Adrian shugasey and Ryan campos?
Instead of 1B like Sal Stewart, Charlie condon, ralphy Velasquez, or Jared jones we got Nolan Schubert ?
What about 2B like chase meidroth, colt Keith, Alex freeland, Connor norby, sam antonacci, Javier sanjoa, Luke keashall? Nope but we get gage miller?
We didn’t even get the right southisine…. Tate southisine is the much better prospect of the two brothers and we got Ty instead? It’s like the devs just pick the teams that are playing well and add random scans instead of the top prospects.
3rd base is the same thing. No Andrew Fischer, Kyle karros, angel genoa, or cam smith
But yall added scans for eddys Leonard, and duce gourson ????The amount of talent still not scanned at short stop is wild. No Kevin McGonigle, colt Emerson, Ethan Holliday, Aidan miller, Eli willits, jojo Parker, Leo de vries, Jesus made, Jett Williams, George Lombard jr, and Luis pena . we got Cesar preito?
No outfielders like max Clark, walker Jenkins, aj Ewing, Braden Montgomery, Justin Crawford, Lazaro Montes, Josue DePaula, zyhir hope, Ryan Walscmidt, Henry bolte, Dylan beavers, or Owen caissie. We got will Taylor? Ivan brethower? Cole carrig, Victor mesa jr, and fenwick Trimble?
Is this some kind of joke? Or again is it just laziness, neglect, or incompetence ? it seems like the devs know nothing about top prospects and are constantly updating DD… it’s almost June and we’re still missing almost all the top prospects and a lot that debuted last year. It’s 2026! Stop neglecting everything other than DD. Not all of us play the card game….. do better SDS!!!!

I think we get it now.

Idk. I think he should probably make a few more posts about it

Most of them don’t have accurate stances and pitching windups either.

@polkrout_xbl dude enough with the multiple posts on the same thing it's beyond annoying, I really hope that they lock this post. Again if you don't like it then don't play

A lot of people are frustrated because there is no transparency about how scans are sent released. Some feel SDS is slowly releasing scans and some feel it’s happening as the season progresses. Transparency might help limit these posts. Is it that difficult for SDS to come out with a statement surrounding this? Also, for people truly upset with lack of transparency or the lack of scans, they should submit a ticket.

Another post about this? At this point, you're just the meme of the old man yelling at a cloud.

You sonnuva ... you did it again!

I support @PolKrout calling out SDS on this every day until Cam Smith is in the game.

Seems somebody don't understand.

You should be calling out Cam Smith. SDS’s hands are literally tied.

@SaveFarris_PSN Ok. I’ve seen these posts and arguments forever now. One guy posts something complaining about lack of face scans, other guys respond with “you can’t force guys to get scanned”.
After what was just announced for player likeness updates, can we all just be honest and admit the obvious? SDS does not release all the scans they have upon release. This has been my one major complaint on this issue. On their 11th update (June 2nd) they will be adding Colt Keith, Drake Baldwin, Kevin McGonigle, Cam Smith and others. No one honestly believes all of those guys JUST flew over and got scanned this last week.
If you don’t care about player likenesses and are more passionate about other areas of the game, cool. Totally valid. But we need to stop with the whole “that player doesn’t have a scan because he didn’t want one” talk. Ultimately we don’t know why EVERY person doesn’t have an updated likeness. But this latest update proves, to me at least, they are sitting on scans and choose to leak them out as the year goes on. Which totally screws over franchise players because we need to start all over if we want those updated likenesses.
All this arguing and fighting over this doesn’t need to keep happening. We can admit both things at once:
-
We don’t know who agreed to get scanned and who didn’t.
-
SDS has more scanned likenesses at the start of the season and choose to dribble them out throughout the season rather than release them at the start.
SDS defenders and SDS critics can we at least agree on that?

@RedstickRebel_PSN You see the latest update?
-
@bleachfro_mlbts I'm not a graphic artist by trade so I can't speak with specificity, but I imagine there is a little more to the process than "Scan. Save. Publish." and there is some correction time in the process.
I just reject the notion that SDS has these face scans in the bag ready to publish and are piecemealing them for whatever reason. What does that serve them? They're expecting a phalanx of Drake Baldwin fans going out and buying the game now that his face scan is available? And if that were the case, what benefit do they have for waiting when they could have published it earlier and gotten all those sales months ago?
-
@SaveFarris_PSN I don’t think the reason has anything to do with sales. I personally think these scans are leaked out as content throughout the season to keep up interest. It’s something new. Again, if you don’t care about scans and the game looking as lifelike as possible, that’s totally fine. Admitting SDS has had these scans since training camp shouldn’t be something to fight over. It’s simply not important to you. Again, that’s fine. But what’s the argument here? Are you honestly suggesting that Drake Baldwin or Colt Keith’s scans were harder to add to the game than some random Athletics reliever back in May? Or that more people wanted to see that reliever than Max Clark or Justin Crawford (being added tomorrow too)?
For franchise players this is frustrating. If you don’t care, fine. But it’s weird to jump into a thread you don’t care about to defend SDS when it seems clear they’re holding scans. I wouldn’t go into a DD thread and tell them they’re dumb for wanting what they want. I’m not bashing you, bro. I get being annoyed by OP’s posts and lists. I just disagree with you that SDS couldn’t add all these guys on the first update. It’s a new game and it should feel new. And starting franchises over every single time they add people really sucks. I hope that makes sense.

That makes zero business sense. I get that it's frustrating. I want everything for free right now too.
