    Re: New Equipment in The Show 23

    I'm new to this thread so sorry if some of this stuff has already been mentioned.

    I really wish that the regular Nike elbow guard was included in the game. Mike Trout and others wear this version that just covers the elbow, but the game only has the Nike Diamond Elite Elbow Guard that also covers the elbow and the top half of the forearm.

    I don't see it happening in this game but I'd like to see the batter's hand guards included. This is a whole new piece of equipment so I don't see it being added this year in a patch. This equipment has been worn by players for a while so I'm not sure why it wasn't included in this year's game.

    I'm also hoping that with Ohtani being a former cover athlete that this would lead to New Balance adding more equipment to the game. Speaking of Ohtani, I noticed that he wears his shin guard under his uniform as opposed to over the pants. It's a small detail but would be cool to have an option to wear the shin guard under the uniform, similar to how you can select pants that cover the top of your cleats or just above the cleats.

    Once again, I'm still bummed out that they took out the Jordan 10 cleats. These were in MLB 21 but then got removed last season and they are still missing. Mookie Betts still uses them in his rotation, but I think he's been mostly wearing the Jordan 5's so far. He was using Jordan 7's during the WBC.

      Agreed on the Nike elbow guard! Same with the Jordan one, hopefully they add both in w/o the extenders or w/e you want to call them.

        I don’t think ohtani wears new balance. I think he wears a Japanese brand in real life

              Patch coming today at 7 am. Maybe we’ll get some upgraded stuff.

                  Ugh why did they remove the extended Nike and Jordan elbow guards. They should only be adding, not removing. I’ll never understand the lack of equipment options for this game.

                    Honestly I hate the look of the extended elbow guards, but I get what you’re talking about.

                    I think most guys wear without the extender.

                      It's seriously ridiculous. Vlad wears the extended Jordan elbow guard and Gleyber wears the extended Nike elbow guard and now they're no longer in the game.

                            Acuña is another one who wears the extended Nike guard. Hopefully they'll add it back. Though if I've got to pick one, I'd rather have the little one. It's strange, though, that in the pictures of the equipment, they updated Nike to the little one, but the Jordan one is still the extended.

                            Also on elbow guards, and maybe I missed this before, but they also changed the G-Form guard to be the smaller one that guys like Max Muncy and Michael Harris as opposed to the big sleeve that had been in.

                              Its really surprising to me how many guys are wearing new balance these days

                                New Balance has actually taken 2nd place behind Nike in terms of baseball cleats that pros wear. And I'm sure the Ohtani signing is only going to help.
