Most of it is stuff we have heard but I found this part to be interesting:

Quote:

Position players will ask for off days throughout the season. If you don't adhere to your player's request, his performance will suffer.

If that is true, that is something I've never heard of in a sports game (that i know of at least). Pretty cool stuff...

That would definitely be sweet! I just hope all these things they are talking about really function properly. If so, this game is gonna be special.

I'm trying to contain my excitement at least until I see some vids or play the demo.

Actually, the show does have something very similar. If your player is fatigue or struggling, your hitting coach will say something like this: "Garrett Jones looked very sluggish during batting practice. We should give him a day off." I've seen anywhere between 7-10 different comments so far.

Anyways, I am looking foward to this game now. Franchise looks like it has gotten some love. The only thing I want to know is if they added options, waivers, etc. I doubt it as we would have heard by now, but I'm still holding out hope

Anybody on my team who asks for a day off is going to earn himself a one-way bus ticket to the minors.
