Mariners and playing VERY small ball. The King and Lee 1-2, will be a riot. Just need to find anyone to drive in Ichiro and Chone.

So far, Jason Bay.

Yankees: Curtis Granderson, Javier Vazquez, Nick Johnson. My Yankees are still spending dollars to improve our team. Do I hear 28 anyone? [Knocks on wood]

Pirates: Andrew McCutchen. I strongly believe that Andrew is a promising player. [Knocks on wood] I will sure be keeping an eye out to see how he progresses!

Jason Bay as of now.

I feel that if the Mets do get Smoltz I will be more interested in using him out of the bullpen.

Aroldis Chapman....because he is our only newcomer...

Re: Which newcomer to your team are you looking forward to playing as the most?

I've got one that none of the Red Sox fans have mentioned yet... Daniel Bard! I loved using Knight's version last year and smoking batters with the 100 mph heater, but it will be nice using an official version with a profile pic and all. Also, I think his ratings will be a little higher than Knight's after his impressive work last season.

Also, even though I've been using him in recently in 09, I'll enjoy pitching with Lackey and his sick curve. It'll be nice having him in the rotation.

Last, I hope and pray Papelbon has a new delivery. Certainly enough noise has been made about it, but his default stance is not even close to how he pitches these days. If they fixed it, I'll be insanely happy.

Yankees: Brett Gardner
Ok hes not 'new' but Hes the most dynamic, different player, seeing as I DIDNT use him last year.
This year,un less the yanks resign Damon, will be starting.

I am excited to see him and his speed, change things.
Somebody who doesnt hit 20 homers in the lineup? Now thats intriguing. I am stoked to see how he can handle his role.

Vasquez and Granderson. Will be fun, but nothing earth shattering there.
I will like to see how many triples Grandy can get in 10, seeing as its hard to get 3 base knocks in the show, from what I have heard.

Re: Which newcomer to your team are you looking forward to playing as the most?

I know not very exciting but Im looking forward to using Brett Wallace..but I have to create him or download a roster...lol I use to love starting the season with Halladay on opening day..sometimes I would just get stuck on opening day playing over and over again because he was so awesome...Toronto fans will miss him dearly...(side note..I can see the fans turning on the players that are still there like wells and overbay..deserved or not..but I think Snider, Hill and Lind are untouchable and will be the focus of the fans excitement)

Re: Which newcomer to your team are you looking forward to playing as the most?

Being that I play along with real life injuries/transactions...I'm just looking forward to playing with the Mets in general.

Reyes, Wright, Santana...though Beltran will be misses the first 6 weeks...

Re: Which newcomer to your team are you looking forward to playing as the most?

I'm going to be balling my eyes out with no Halladay in my starting five. Who am I looking forward to? Shawn Hill wooooohoooo! Oh it is going to be a VERY long season to be a Jays fan.

Im glad we have the new injury manipulator feature because as a jays fan we couldnt do much with our team in franchise mode...everybody was on the DL..we could fill an entire minor league system with broken players...haha...I cant wait to play as Vernon wells and make sure he gets hurt bad..or since theres a family emergency we can create a mini tiger woods fiasco...lol

Javier Vasquez, C. Grand and most importantly, and updated New Yankee stadium. Last year's version just didn't seem smooth compared to the other stadiums.

Oh, and everyone knew on the Nationals roster.
