Play a quick game at SunTrust Park to see how the new ballpark looks, Marlins vs. Braves. Controlling the Marlins of course.

First full weekend I have I will play with every team. My favorite team is the Toronto Blue Jays but this will be my first time playing with each time in alphabetical order. I try to spice things up plus I haven't bought a new baseball game since MLB 15. I'm so excited!

Show 16 was released Tuesday March 29.

Show 16's OSFM V1 hit the vault April 17 a Sunday.
OSFM V1.5 hit the vault April 19.
OSFM V2 hit the vault April 25.
OSFM V2.2 hit the vault April 26.
OSFM V2.5 hit the vault April 27.
OSFM V3 hit the vault May 13.
As you can see, RDK and crew dont mess around. lol

I expect this one wont drop as quickly as last year because of new body models and faces, but thats perfectly understandable, these guys do great work I'd wait til june if need be lol
I'm sure I will do a quick run through in Season Mode to pass the time with default rosters
and I have a carryover franchise that I will dabble in but I will probably abandon it for awhile if not completely once OSFM 17 drops.

Good timeline, but remember when they import players this years all the created faces are going to be messed up with the new graphics desighn. That means over 1500 players willneed face makeovers before release. OSFM 17 probably won't release until at least early May

Yea unfortunely waiting a month a half to start a franchise is a long time. I bet many people will just use some generic roster that has a few prospects in it to start a franchise Its killing those of us who want to start near opening day. I wish they would release the game like earlier when it came out in early March. Our better yet let us import whole rosters to the show. It would be so much easier then player by player

Create my friends and I. Put us in the Reds minor league system and see how we all pan out.

I am going to carryover a fantasy draft franchise. I picked the Diamondbacks (lower budget team, it was between them or the Brewers) and used sookiebunnie's latest roster file to draft through round 45.

Going to do 3 drafts and pick the team I like best to start a franchise to carryover to 17. So far I've completed 1 of the 3 drafts.

I used to do this all of the time with my old high school team, mainly my friends, but I would put us all on different teams and follow the careers from minors to majors to trades etc...
