    Think about it:
    McCutchen wins MVP - McCutchen gets the MLB 13 cover
    Cabrera wins MVP - Cabrera gets the MLB 14 cover
    Trout wins MVP - Puig gets the MLB 15 cover?
    Donaldson wins MVP - Donaldson gets the MLB 16 cover




    EDIT: I will admit they did get his stance down perfectly this year, though.
    SCEA treating Trout like.....

          I also think the Phillie Phanatic would be a solid choice.

            If I were a betting man, I'd pick Bryant. He's got the talent, the looks, is playing in a WS on a historical widely known franchise, and most of all, his number is.........

            17

              I'm anxious to find out.

              Not that who is on the cover really matters to me, but any news about '17 is a good thing.

I dare say Kobe winning anyones Husband of the Year award would be far more unlikely . Which is why I was deeply disappointed in 2K putting Bryant on the Legend Edition . Far more deserving individuals like Tim Duncan or Kevin Garnett . Any man who cant wait for a girl to at least leave her teenage years behind before having an affair is no man . And Kobe is no man just scum of the earth . Not that hes alone in that but no one else of the same ilk should be a role model for our children . And even if she was of 'legal' age means nothing to me . Just because you can do a thing doesnt mean you should . Sorry for the rant but Bryant brings out the worst in me and makes me sick tomy stomach . Back on topic I would even be up for having no athlete on the cover , just a shot of Wrigley and its ivy or even something as simple as homeplate with a baseball and a couple bats crossed .

                      Still, either Posey or MadBum would be awesome.

                            My first thought was Kris Bryant, so I'm going to stick with that.

                                I do like the idea of Jose Fernandez.
