@AndyWilk09_PSN I said that last year but wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt and of course I’m regretting it and they’re still regressing with everything other than DD. Not only are the prospect rankings way off but they’re missing 90% of the prospects scans…. The future of the league and all they care about is making a DD card with boosted stats and no scan… Top prospects from last year and most of the top prospects debuting this year look like monsters or Nintendo 64 created players. 2026 and clearly these nerds know nothing about baseball other than their cringe card game. That’s what they think of when they think of baseball . Dungeons and dragons … takes 5 minutes to research but of course not . DD is all that matters . It’s pathetic and I agree, never again getting my money.

@SithLordSlyther_XBL no bullpens in 2026 is crazy. No top prospects with scans is wild. Neglecting everyone who purchased the game but doesn’t play DD is a jok

@Sarge1387_PSN I think so, the players without scans look like something from Nintendo 64. All their stats are glitched out so you can’t edit them if u wanna make em realistic

@Finn_Scotus_MLBTS I clicked on the wrong thread and it won’t let me delete the comment.

I agree

I see a lot of posts about face scans and player model updates. I think I have the solution. In MLB the show 21 or 22 you had face scans for all the top prospects from the spring break out series . If you would just add the face scans every year of the spring break out series all the top prospects would be in the game.

It seems like SDS just makes DD cards with boosted stats and no face scans. So the gamers who don’t play DD just miss out on the spring break out series?

All of these players were scanned and had player models before they ever debuted

I’m sorry, I know you’re all sick of the “player update posts” but I tend to agree with the people saying there’s way too many top prospects missing. Especially guys who haven’t even debuted last year. The NL rookie of the year doesn’t have a face scan….

If SDS just added some player models for the spring break out series we wouldn’t be missing guys like

Bubba chandler
Kevin mcgonigle
Chase burns

The list goes on forever and it’s honestly not acceptable for 2026! The players without scans look like Nintendo 64 graphics. They’re the future of the MLB and they aren’t added bc it doesn’t benefit DD? Sad!

Please go back to giving player models updates for the spring break out series !!! Us franchise players want to be included too!!! Thank you

It seems like now you just make a DD card with boosted stats for the spring break out series cards…

@rgrullon1730_MLBTS

you would think if they were gonna neglect the live rosters and focus on legends that they could at least use A.I. for the players they never got scans for. At the very least have them use the companion app and send in a face scan . It’s 2026 !!!!

@StinkyMcPooter_XBL Yeah

Love how they make sure we get Trevor McDonald , mason barnett, will wagner, Mathew Lugo and slade Caldwell meanwhile most of the tigers are still missing and the top prospects like Kevin mcgonigle, Max Clark, walker jenkins, Ethan Holliday, bubba chandler, cam smith, drake Baldwin , chase burns, cam schlittler, Connolly early, Peyton tolle, Aidan miller , colt Emerson, Samuel bassallo, Edgar quero, Moises ballesteros, Alex freeland , Sal Stewart, Thomas white, Noah Shultz, Seth Hernandez, Kade Anderson, Liam Doyle, Jamie Arnold, Andrew Fischer, Eli willits, Owen caissie, kyson Witherspoon , Jonah tong, Charlie condon, Justin Crawford, Braden Montgomery, Bryce Matthews, Kristian Campbell, Carson benge, gage jump, Jesus made , Leo de vries , and so many more who already debuted or will debut this year are still missing….. colt keith? Been like 3 years….. but yeah make sure we have Cole karrig?

they still can’t figure out a way to upload new scans to previous saves and it’s 2026! Kind of wild…. I’m better off waiting til the end of the season to get this game bc I can never finish anything without restarting bc of the new scans they decide to give u halfway thru the season instead of before the games released …. At that point I’m kinda over baseball and the new game will be out in a few months…. Thanks SDS!

I need to start getting the game at the end of the season but at t

It’s mind blowing! They never update the tigers! Still no colt keith, No max clark, Kevin McGonigle, wenceel Perez, Tyler holton, Brant hurter, keider montero, etc

Still missing top prospects that debuted last year like Samuel bassallo,!! Edgar quero, Moises ballesteros, chase burns! bubba chandler! Nolan McLean! , Alex Greenland!! Brandon sproat, chase meidroth, cam smith! drake baldwin! Kristian Campbell, cam schlittler! Connelly early, Peyton tolle, grant taylor, sal Stewart! Owen Cassie, Jonah tong, Carter Jensen, Dylan beavers, Bryce teosido, luke keashall, dom canzone, Connor norby, Liam hicks, Javier sanjoa, Caden dana, Kyle karros, Joey loperfido, aj smith shawver, Hurston waldrep, Braxton Ashcraft, etc

Still no top prospects that will debut this year like walker jenkins, Aidan miller, colt Emerson, max Clark, Ethan Salas, Braden Montgomery, Justin Crawford, Kevin McGonigle, Jett Williams, Thomas white, Noah Schultz, Carson benge, James tibbs, zyhir hope, Charlie condon, Hagen smith, gage jump, Leo de vries !! Jesus made!!, Ralphy Velasquez , angel genoa, hunter barco, etc

No draft picks from last year added like Ethan Holliday, Eli willits, Jamie Arnold, Seth Hernandez, Liam Doyle, Kade Anderson, Aiva arquette, wehiva alloy, Zach root, kyson Witherspoon , Andrew Fischer, George Lombard jr. etc

They don’t add any relievers like Ben Joyce, Justin slaten, Erik sabrowski, Matt svanson, Cole Henry, Tyler Phillips, Kyle Nicholas, Ryan Johnson, Seth halvorsen, grant Taylor, Troy melton, Braydon Fischer, Luke little, Brendon little, mason montgomery! grant Taylor, Tyler holton, Brant hurter, etc

They clearly make no effort to add international pitchers , relievers , prospects. Like Luis morales! Brandyn Garcia, Daniel palencia! Juan morillo, Juan Mejia, Elvis Alvarado, Jose Fermin, eduarnial nunez, dedniel nunez, Eduardo Salazar, didier Fuentes, Edguardo henriquez, yariel Rodriguez, Keider montero, Luis Peralta, j. Clintje, they’re basically all missing ! Alzolay is missing for whatever reason!

PLEASE do better!!!!!! Or figure out a way to load the new updates to our previous roster/ game mode saves!!!!!!!! Way too many top prospects missing!!!!!!!!!!

When I’m in the manage roster screen or trading screen the game just randomly crashes. Lose all the progress I made fixing the rosters ! It happened last year and you fixed it now it’s back again. Please fix!

Can you please fix the customizable characters! The highest velocity on sinkers is 94. Same with change ups, they max out at 84. Guys throwing 99+ with 83 mph change ups is a drastic difference. Tough to adjust to 15 mph difference rather than their change up being 88-90

Also, when I change the velocity of one pitch, It changes the velocity of all the other pitches? Idk if this is something new or a glitch. these players have been unusable for years…

It’s the reason I’m always begging for face scans. I won’t speak too much on that right now, I’ll wait on the first update but so far not one top prospect added! No Konnor griffin! Kevin McGonigle, max clark, walker Jenkins, Brayden Montgomery, Samuel bassallo , Leo de vries, Jesus made, Not one first round draft pick from last year like Ethan Holliday… even the top prospects who played last season like cam schlittler, chase burns, bubba chandler, cam smith, Nolan McLean, Connelly early, sal Stewart, Owen Cassie , grant taylor, haven’t been added…. 🤯

It’s 2026 and it’s the same game running in the same engine. How is this not fixed yet? Editing rosters …. Crashed. Making trades…. Crashed. Players with dreads still are glitching out and their hair isn’t showing…… it’s been happening since 2020! 7 years later, still happening. Please fix this!

Is there anyway you guys can figure out a way to get the new updates (new face scans/ player models) to load to our previous franchise or roster saves?

I hardly ever finish a franchise because I start over to get the new face scans (usually top prospects and guys who have been playing for years) of guys that should’ve been added before the game launched.

Please try to figure that out for all game modes and all file save types. I would greatly appreciate this!

Thank you, the face scans guy

Can we please get some top prospects face scans in the game like you used to do?

Walker Jenkins, max Clark, Eli willits , Ethan Holliday, Jamie Arnold, Liam Doyle, Kade Anderson, CHASE BURNS, Cole Emerson, Kevin mcgonigle, Luke keashall, cam smith, Brice Matthews, chase meidroth, Edgar quero, Samuel bassallo, drake Baldwin, Nolan McLean, Aidan miller, Justin Crawford,Moises ballesteros, Kevin Alcantara, Owen Cassie, cam collier, Sal Stewart, Jesus made, Konnor griffin, BUBBA CHANDLER, Braxton Ashcraft, Hurston waldrep, AJ smith-shawver, Caden Dana, TREY YESSVAGE, cam schlittler, Connelly early, Payton tolle, Justin wrobleski, Seth Hernandez, Brandon sproat, Thomas white, noble Meyer, Noah Schultz, Hagen smith, Kristian Campbell, wehiva alloy, leodalis De Vries, Colby Thomas , aiva arquette, drew gilbert, grant Taylor, Mason Barnett, Mason Montgomery, Noah Cameron

Also we’re still missing a lot of players that have been consistently playing for years now like

Colt Kieth, Hayden birdsong, Jonathan Aranda , keider montero, yariel Rodriguez, Wenceel Perez, Tyler holton, Brant hurter, Joey cantillo , Joey loperfido, don canzone, and some relievers Seth halvorsen , Cole Henry, Justin slaten, Matt svanson, Kyle Nicholas, Jake Katz, Ben Joyce, (almost every younger international player) Juan morillo, dedniel Nunez, DANIEL PALENCIA, Eduardo Salazar, Tyler Phillips, day Abel Hernandez, Joel peguero, Elvis Alvarado, Jose Fermin, edguardo Henriquez , Carlos Duran, eduarniel Nunez, Luis peralta, Juan Mejia , rolddy Munoz ,

Please and thank you! Way too many top prospects and international players missing scans. Yall used to have everyone in the game years before they ever played . I understand your main concern is DD, but don’t neglect the rest of the game for the rest of your fans who play franchise (online franchise was sweet)

Also munataka murakami and the rest of the Japanese /korean players who signed deals with MLB teams this offseason.

The update says “ UA king of the diamond” batting gloves were added…… I still see the same old batting gloves…..

@sbchamps17_NSW yep, hello!!!! Sorry to say you won’t see me on here anymore. I know, you’re gonna miss me!!!! I get it. I’m gonna miss yall too . Stop accepting no effort in 2025! It’s the same game every year! You deserve better if you love baseball!

Thanks SDS for making baseball about grinding for packs…. The lack of effort into the rest of the game is a disgrace! Finally updating Sal frelick, Harrison bader, Pete Alonso? They should’ve been updated before the game released …. Oh and some garbage players for the padres? No tigers (still missing everything they were last year and they’ve been in the playoffs back to back years) ? Colt Keith? Wenceel Perez? Keider montero ?none of the Yankees like cam schlittler or will warren? None of the Mets like Brandon sproat, Jonah tong, Nolan McLean, dedniel nunez? Nope! Joey loperfido, Colt Keith, arranda, slaten Joyce, holton, birdsong have been playing for a couple years still nothing.

A lot of the top prospects STILL missing? Couldn’t add Chase burns, bubba chandler, cam smith, drake Baldwin? Not before the game was released, not during the season, not at all?

U ruined this franchise. What happened ? Almost every top prospect used to be in the game long before they ever played…. Now we can’t get top prospects even when they play all year and the previous year….. You are the laziest ,most incompetent, greedy company/devs ever.

Same game every year and you can’t even add the top prospects or young guys who have been playing consistently for years. Never again will I purchase this garbage u call a MLB game. I said that after last year but I didn’t think it could get worse than last year so I gave it a shot. Man you guys really proved me wrong. What do you know, it’s the same game!!! Pathetic!

Thanks for ruining the only sports game I have ever played. The only thing that made the game different every year was the new players added. Now it’s the same game, graphics, terrible commentary, gear, same minor league stadiums , same sinkers that don’t move and top out at 95 ( cringe) etc.

Kyle hart? Freddy Fermin? Really? What about Issac Collin’s? Caleb Durbin? Owen Cassie ? Samuel bassallo, Trey yasavage , Sal Stewart, Alex freeland, Drew Gilbert, , etc, etc, etc!!!!!! Just a few updated veterans like last time. Gee thanks for updated Jesus tinoco and Cade cavali Ryan burr!!! We want those guys!!! not the future of the ball clubs!!!!!! What a joke!!!!!! Shame on you. Not everyone plays DD and you have completely neglected everything else.

Congrats on figuring out a way to sell the same game every year. Oh that’s right , u guys “fixed the fielding” and added another “guess pitch” you must’ve put a lot of time and effort into this game. . I can barely tell you fixed anything tbh. The pitch mix “update” was the biggest hack job I’ve seen. You switched pitch order around but didn’t bother moving the attribute rating of those pitches with them. lol. So hunter brown had a 12/6 curve with 99 break and a change up with 60 break , now it’s opposite . BTW hunter brown has a knuckle curve you hacks!!! Do some resesrch. Almost Every pitcher you “updated” is like that. Hacks!!!!

If you’re gonna charge ur customers for a new game every year, do a little
More than claim to fix the fielding. It’s 2025 and you can’t even get AI in this game? It’s laughable but also sucks bc I love baseball and DD isn’t baseball to me. H2H match ups trying to open packs to get legends and the same roster as everyone else? Yeah, no thanks. When you got rid of inline franchise j should’ve known nothing about this game was gonna be realistic and basically the same as last year.

I’ve exposed SDS pitch mix and ratings “update” they switch some pitches around but were too lazy to do it right. For example they move pitches around but keep the control and break ratings in the same spot. So hunter browns curveball with 99 break is now 60 break and his change up or sinker with 60 break has 99. Almost every pitcher they “updated” are now far from updated …... Not to mention Hunter brown has had a knuckle curveball for a couple years and they still have a 12/6 curveball in his mix . It’s laughable and there’s no excuse. They put No effort in anything they do anymore. So many batting stances are wrong or outdated. Example, Michael Harris, Jeremy pena( hasn’t had that trash stance for a couple years) , nick kurtz (lol). Most of the swings aren’t right either. . Nick Kurtz clearly has a two handed swing. Put some effort into this game!!!!

Also, it’s been months since you’ve added or updated any face scans and you added one player? Jacob misiorowski should’ve been added before the release of the game and def before the all star game Considering he was an all star….. we just got him and literally nothing else? Crazy! Still no Colt Keith. Thank god for ea sports. They do better with ai on college kids than the show does with top prospects. It’s a joke. It’s 2025! Use AI if you’re too lazy to get it right !!!!

Where is Colt Keith’s scan?!!!! What about the rest of the tigers? Wenceel Perez, keider montero, brant hurter, Tyler holton, beau breiske? How about Josh smith, Joey loperfido, Jonathan Aranda, Hayden birdsong, Jordan beck, Issac Collin’s, dedniel Nunez, yariel Rodriguez, Seth halvorsen, grant Taylor, cam schlittler, Luke little and Brendon little, Justin slaten, Ben Joyce and Daniel palencia??????

Can we please get some top prospects face scans added to the game? Samuel bassallo, Edgar quero, Moises ballesteros, Leo de vries! Jesus made! Kevin alcantara, Max Clark! Walker Jenkins! Konnor griffin! Bubba chandler! Brandon sproat! Noah McLean ! Jonah tong! Braxton Ashcraft, CHASE BURNS!!! Kristian Campbell, Bryce Matthews, CAM SMITH! Drake Baldwin, drew jones, Kevin McGonigle!!! Noah Schulz, Jacob MISIOROWSKI, chase meidroth, Alex freeland, Owen Cassie, drew Gilbert, Sal Stewart, Kyle karros, Colby Thomas, Dylan beavers, yanquiel Fernandez, Mason Barnett , Luke keashall! Peyton tolle! Carter Jensen, Bryce ranier, Luis morales, Charlie condon, Carson benge, Aidan miller?…. Still way too many missing and That’s just off the top of my head.

What’s about the draft picks like you added last year? Or at least some of them? Can we get Eli willits? Ethan Holliday!!! , Zach root,Jamie Arnold!! kyson wytherspoon, Liam Doyle!! Marcus Philips? Aiva arwuette!!! Andrew Fischer, wehiva alloy, Gavin kilen, Kade Anderson!! Seth Hernandez!! Jared jones and jojo Parker

Basically added none before the release of them game and one update of added face scans before all star break and literally nothing since…. Please add some players!!! Way too many missing!!!!
