    Ability to fully customize seasons so we can authentically recreate classic season. With all these amazing rosters out there, it would be great to be able to replay say the 1978 season with correct teams, leagues, divisions, playoffs etc...
    This is my #1 wish for pretty much every sports game out there (Madden and NHL) as well, but I have three main concerns with this are:

    1. The calendar. I start a franchise mode with the 2005 rosters, I want to have the calender say 2005, and then change to 2006 the next season. Can this option be programmed in?

    2. Throwback jerseys/Classic Stadiums. I would want a jersey/stadium creator to be able to make actual throwbacks/stadiums (or new ones). I've come up with around 400 designs for all 30 teams.

    3. Team names. What if I start a year in 2004? Can I bring back the Montreal Expos (and have the announcers say "Montreal Expos") for at least one season, and then move them to Washington?

    4. Minor-league affiliates. Teams change minor-league affiliates all the time. Can I bring back old minor-league teams if I so wish?

    The four options mentioned could basically make this the greatest baseball video game of all time. I would start buying this series again.

    On the note of custom playoffs, I think it would be cool if we could pick the following (depending on how many divisions there are in each league, up to 4 divisions): 1 team in each league, 2 teams in each league (with optional play-in game with 3 team), 4 teams in each league (with optional play-in game with 5 team), or 8 teams in each league (with optional play-in game with 9 team). Each round can range anywhere from single-elimination to best-of-9 series.

    And in the name of all that I hold sacred, CUSTOM SCHEDULES! I hate, I HATE, I HATE, the unbalanced schedule!

    Could someone answer these questions as well?

    1. Can the player choose the weather settings in 14?

    2. It's been about 5 years since I last purchased the game, MLB 09 on PS2. In the offseason, a free agents contract demands were based on attributes, not stats. If you lowered a player's attributes, his demands would lower as well. Has anyone tried this on more recent games? Is it still like this?

      My biggest wish is to have full customization options similar to NBA 2k15 when starting a franchise, namely:

      1. Trade approval - this is KEY. How many franhises were ruined by the Angels trading Pujols back to the Cardinals, or the Twins trading Buxton and Sano for 2 relievers. Not everyone wants to have to do 30 team control.

      2. Sliders for trade frequency, blockbuster trades, re-signing aggressiveness, chemistry/morale difficulty/effects...

      This would be a MASSIVE upgrade, with no downside- it's such a great game, but realistic trades are super difficult to recreate, and while I'd like the computer to still generate them, it would be so worthwhile to let the user be the final judge.

      Thanks for the awesome work each year SD Studios!

        Not sure if it's been mention but year after year I bunt with a guy on 1st, but I'm safe at 1st because of an error. I get poor play with no sacrifice..

        Probably more a long standing bug than being a wish.

          This may seem really stupid but I was watching a marathon of baseball movies last night and I have always wanted this element to be possible in the show. What element you ask? Well of course you aren't going to ask....But I will tell you anyway.

          I would like the big moments of baseball movies to be like a one in a million chance to happen. Like ripping the cover of a ball on a towering home run that wins the game. Or putting the lights out a la The Natural. Or calling your shot in game 7 of the World Series. All of these moments are part of the romanticism of Baseball. I don't want these to be common events by any means . I really want it to be a one in million chance of happening.

          I know these will never be put in, but I just think it would be one of the coolest moments in The Show ever.

              I would absolutely love managerial personalities. It does not need to be in depth (maybe like 5 types), but that these managers have a separate type of personality with offense, defense, and pitching.


              For instance: Manager A


              Offensive personality: small ball (e.g. bunting, baserunning, etc,)
              Defensive personality: conservative (e.g. doesn't use shifts or defensive replacements too often)
              Pitching: Aggressive (e.g. matchups, pound strikezone)


              Manager B


              Offense: Aggressive (e.g. stealing, hit and run)
              Defensive: Aggressive (e.g. defensive replacement, shifts, double switch)
              Pitching: Power (favors power arms like the Royals)




              I think it is time that we see personalities. It would be fun to know how the opposing manager operates so we can attempt to neutralize them our strengths.

                  For those who create historic rosters, it'd be cool if they could upload historic photos for the player profile and player card photos.

                    Has the idea of an individual team vault for import/export been discussed as a possibility?

                    The player vault is so terrific to be able to grab individual players and load them in place of others on your roster, it'd be amazing to grab individual teams out of a Team Vault the same way.

                    Imagine if they added a Create-A-Team and Uniform feature along with a Team Vault? The possibilities would be endless.

                      So has there been any confirmation on wether or not the things they wanted to get in last year but couldn't are now in this year? i.e. fans catching foul/HR balls, all graphics on uniforms in the runner windows, etc?

                        A few more suggestions for this amazing game:

                        Fix the look o the infield dirt, groundskeepers would be fired on the spot if they kept the infield looking like this.

                        How about realistic weather and wind along with the realistic lighting.

                        Also, how about some defensive ratings for outfielders that really effect the outcome of plays and some games.

                            I would love to see them do something with rivalries, divisional rivalries, and more importantly, dynamic rivalries that develop in a season and carry over throughout.

                            Include celebrations, beanball wars, player ejections, manager ejections, etc....maybe not full out brawls but you get the point and have that kind of stuff percolate and carry on over the course of a season or even longer.

                            I know I'm probably nuts and they'd never include it but I just think it'd take the level of immersion in a dynasty that much further and really add to it. The passion, competitiveness, and yes....even sometimes the nastiness is what I think makes baseball awesome and really factors in that human element.

                              Batter's Eye, what the old 2K series had. Basically, guy who had high discipline ratings on some pitches the pitch and possible location would display. It made that attribute really matter IMO.
