I'll be most interested in seeing which players below AA make the cut. hopefully this new interpretation will motivate Sony in to doubling the 90 man rosters.

Good point. And is the FA list will be filled with more licensed players or fakes !?

Michael Jordan signed with the White Sox in 1994 not 99.

What this means to me is this could have been added YEARS ago. Oh well. Glad it's in now.

Makes you wonder if they just didn't know, or figured the OSFM team handled it and didnt want to put in all the work themselves. It is alot of work.

Wasn't going to work out in either of those years.....

So... I'm late to the party, but when Sony says "full minor league rosters" they DON'T mean they've added single A or rookie ball teams?

They've just added real names (and scans and likeness in some cases) to the same truncated system they've had all along?

Not judging, just asking.

Correct, hopefully this is just the start and in future games SDS will add high-A, rookie ball, etc.

Probably the time involved in coding all the equipment, stance, attributes for those minor league players.

I've wondered for some time why they didn't allow for the DD franchise creation suite to be included in franchise. Doesn't matter now. We have it and it's going to be great.

They didn't put in the work this year either.
Ridin's team did.
They only put work into aspects of the game that net them a further profit. Pretty sure we've established this.

I didn't know Ridin's team did all the new audio and face scans....

It amazes me you still play this game with all the shade you throw at the dev team.

I'd expect them to be waiting to do so until the PS5

So they paid someone who already had this done rather than spending money and taking resources away from the game to have someone else do it from scratch? I don't know, but that sounds like a good business plan to me.

As a "Baseball Game Nomad", meaning I play a bit of every game play mode (Franchise, DD, RTTS, etc), I am happy that every year they put effort into areas that net them a greater profit because that means I get a new game every year and my cost doesn't go up. And having them include Ridin and his roster makes me excited for the future because it shows that this company is absolutely willing to do what is best for their game, even if it means buying already working programming and such, rather than just keeping everything in house. I mean the possibility that when the PS5 comes out, and this development team decides to change player models, that they may purchase these player models from a studio that has perfected it already and can implement it in game super fast has got me super excited!!
