I can't speak much as far as how Franchise mode has changed as I am only about mid way through May at this point so I have not had any interaction with the Free agents, but I know they put other factors into it other than just money and years so hopefully that will make the free agents more diverse than in the past. As far as trade logic about 35 games into the season I have only seen one big trade. Cespedes got traded to CWS for Abreu and Danks I think. While the trade is fairly balanced I don't think either team would ever do this trade so I feel trade logic still has a ways to go.

Re: MLB The Show 16 Q&A Thread
I was wondering how the overall Franchise Mode is in '16. I really enjoyed '15's, but one thing I had a problem with was the lack of big time FAs. I was wondering if more of the better players entered the market opposed to signing with the team first. Has there been a higher frequency of this happening in '16?
Also, has there been any tweaks to the trading system?
There are slightly more free agents that hit the market. It's easy to make more hit the market if you use 30 team control and set contracts to manual and sim to the last day before the exclusive period before returning contracts to auto.
I think trade logic is alot better and I love the alerts for big moves.

Franchise mode, is a 100x better in my opinion than 15.

Re: MLB The Show 16 Q&A Thread
Is there a way to program batting practice to the pitcher will throw a certain pitch? For example, I want to practice hitting a high 90s up and in fastball. Can I do that?

Re: MLB The Show 16 Q&A Thread
I have a question regarding RTTS. I believe that I have screwed up.
I selected Ridins OSFM Roster for my career. Problem is, every team only has 25 men on their 40-man roster. So my fear is that the teams will not add any players to the 40-man. Should I just start over or do the teams actually add/remove players?
Please helpComment

Are team budgets fixed yet in Franchise or do most teams get like 7-12% increases even teams in the cellar?Comment

Re: MLB The Show 16 Q&A Thread
Possibly been asked before but here is my spin on it, so apologies in advance if anyone feels they are repeating themselves.
I have 15 and enjoyed it, I mean the gameplay etc is fun and the game looks the part (PS4). However I sort of burned out quite quickly, mainly because im a franchise mode player and there just seemed to be so many workarounds and things I had to do (well not had to, but I get caught up in all the threads on OS to make things better).. so eventually I felt that the game became a chore.
Is 16 better in that I can get a roster set, get some sliders and just delve into franchise, run my own team and know that the AI will at least be competent in putting teams together etc. No bugs that ruin franchise mode or the immersion etc
Its in my basket to buy, I just dont want it to be that game I get 10-20 hours out of and then let it pass. I want it to hook me in.
Cheers for any tips etc. I am reading as many threads as I can btw, im not lazily just expecting someone to serve it up on a plate for meComment

Re: MLB The Show 16 Q&A Thread
So I have a question regarding "teaching" a player a new position in franchise mode. How would you guys go about doing that, the way I was thinking is having a minimum of games you have to play them in that position before you can edit them and put it as there secondary or primary position. Has anyone else done something like this or have a different way of doing it?

In '15, it automatically adding the position to the secondary spot, if I remember correctly.Nebraska Cornhuskers Detroit Tigers San Francisco 49ers Detroit Red Wings Syracuse Orange New York KnicksComment

Re: MLB The Show 16 Q&A Thread
Unfortunately players don't "learn" positions in franchise mode. The Show has never had players gain secondary positions.
All players are editable though, so you can change positions manually or add a second position.
