I hope so! I always enjoy when I have the fortune of having a RTTS pitcher getting called up to the bigs who spends time in the bullpen before cracking into the rotation.

I planned on making a SP in RTTS in '17 but as many of you asked, I don't know how much of a PYP a SP can have. Especially if they're pitching well. It'd be unlikely to ask them to move to the bullpen if they are having success in the rotation.

Maybe ask you to change pitches? Like drop your slider from your repertoire and start throwing a curveball instead. Or maybe ask you to drop lower in the rotation because they want to give another prospect more innings? Just throwing some ideas out there.

Maybe Mike Trout should have spoken up like Joe Random,
he coulda been somebody, he coulda been a contender.

Was worried with the RPG aspect to RTTS it would be like NBA where our "path" is already paved for us. I should know by now to trust the guys at Sony, good to see we are really able to pave our own path. That conversation with the Angels was hilarious

You. (Angels won the division when they drafted Trout )




Jokes aside, it'll be interesting to try all different options out, I'll mostly do all the good options but I wanna see what'll happen in some situations with the "bad" ones.

I'm definitely excited to see pave your path expanded on in future iterations. Maybe give us a rival in the future. Like as a pitcher we have a hitter we face off against, and pitcher when we're a hitter, and we can be cool to each other, friendly rivals or I wanna beat this guy down kind of rivals based on how we the player respond.

That would be kinda cool. I know there are teams that restrict certain pitches, even if they deny it. lol. I remember Brandon McCarthy complaining after he was traded from the D-Backs that they would let him throw his cutter.
