Did they specifically say two new commentors will be added along with Matty V? Maybe just one will join in to do analytical work along aside with Matty's Play by Play, while the other is a dugout reporter, aka Lauren Shehadi?

Speaking of music who thinks it's about time they remove that very old music tune they been using for like ever?

Something new and fresh would be nice.

God I hope so. They even have the same post game animation of blue polo guy interviewing players 5 years running now. Hopefully we get sideline reporters and pre/post game stuff now that mlb network is involved and not just a logo osd replacement.

Definately Harold Reynolds since he was on the july 10 livestream playing the game and after he left the next guy on was kirby (the script writer). Hope the other announcer is Shehadi.

I can see the first set of asterisk spells out MLB Network, but the second set doesn't spell out Harold Reynolds for the March 2nd Twitch

Ramone said on twitter "One should not assume that number of * correlate to letters in a persons name." I'm just guessing Reynolds cuz he seems like a fan considering he did some lines for the easter egg and joined a stream once.

Would love to get a system similar to that Madden thing where commentary got updated as the season went along. But given the season's length, it probably isn't feasible logistically to put that kinda workload on announcers who probably already have their hands full. The NFL season is plenty slow enough and doesn't change all that rapidly.

He might have also said that because of a lot of people saying "O'Dowd" might mean that other characters can come into play that aren't just alphanumeric, such as punctuation marks like apostrophes.

I think I kind of hope it's Harold, but then again I don't ever really recall listening to him in an actual baseball game as opposed to the MLB Tonight studio, and if I did hear him (ESPN 2, LLWS, etc.) I don't know if he was my favorite. I do love him on MLB Tonight, though.

We'll see what we get soon enough!

I still think Matty has some of the best homerun calls in the game, and I hope they amp up his calls a bit this year, especially in the postseason.

His grand slam call in the World Series was one of my favorites:

Matt in real life is great, Matt in The Show doesn't translate as well. I remember being startled when I actually heard im in real life compared to the monotone of the show.

If Robert Flores is to be believed, it's Harold.

I wonder if he's going to be a pre-game/post-game guy, or an in-game commentary guy. He received a lot of complaints when he was with Joe Buck, and Reynolds and Verducci were replaced by John Smoltz.

I know he has a history with Matt Vasgersian so maybe there's more chemistry there.

Matty V and Harold Reynolds have a daily morning show during the Offseason as well as years together on MLB Network's other programs. They should work well together (If they recorded lines together as opposed to at separate times).

And the last missing piece is the 3rd broadcaster. I'd like to see Tom Verducci or John Smoltz. Both incredibly fun to listen to and knowledgeable.

Matt could record Harold's commentary with his 'sound board' from Hot Stove.

Not sure where to post this but is the Griffey Card Pre Order available for every edition? From wherever you pre order it from? Cause Amazon's Pre-Order if you have Amazon Prime comes out to $56 for the MVP Edition.

If true, poor guy will get calls later for leaking the info. Personally, i like Harold, so this will be a great addition to the game. Personally, if they just kept Matty V and Harold, I would settle for just those two. I'm still hoping the other person is a dugout reporter.

That right there is so desperately needed in MLB The Show!!!

Also a Booth of Matt Vasgersian, Harold Reynolds And John Smoltz with all new lines and all recorded at the same time would have to be a huge improvement from what is in the game now!

And then one of the sexy woman from MLB Network for sideline and or Studio updates and then we will really have the beginnings of something really special maybe!
