Great update by Pared!

Any info on the Futures Game? What about Top Propsects in the minors?

That would be awesome if they included a generic "Top 100". I love looking at others teams rosters and seeing teams stacking up on prospects. Plus it would make it more intriguing when looking at trades.

Re: Post thoughts here for Community Day Hands-on Impressions

Man, reading the info is drawing me closer to buying this game. I was on the fence because I really didn't think they weren't going to change much in 2010. And since that was my assumption, I thought I'd just keep on playing The Show 09, which I'm still having a good time with.

But now I read that there is a Single-A system(not the type I hoped for but it's better than nothing) and I read somewhere that injuries are in Spring Training carry over to regular season makes it more interesting. But I got two questions hopefully someone who knows the answer can respond:

1. I'm a manage mode only player. Can we finally play 2-player manage mode only in franchise/season mode?

2. In regards to the injuries in Spring Training. I read this on the MLB The Show 10 blog were you can 'assign' injuries to players in Spring Training. Can 'random' injuries also occur in Spring Training? And does fatigue carry over from Spring Training into the regular season?

After the top of the fourth inning of a franchise game I played, a screen appeared which showed six out of town scores of games in progress. After the sixth inning, the screen appeared again which showed more scores.

Knight?!?!?!! How did it look??? This is yor baby!

Since we can now use our own music for the 7th inning stretch. Does this mean I could for example use my version of “Take Me Out To the Ball Game” which is 53 Seconds long? I can listen to the whole thing? I would guess you could skip it with he press of the X button?

Also will we have an option for the playing of the whole National anthem before the game begins?

Has the fans cheering been improved?

Like for example when the home team takes the lead late in the game do they keep the noise going or does it get quiet?

Do Fans hold up sign like "LETS GO PHILLIES"

Can users create our own signs?

Now that we know there are no Ball Boys/Ball Girls or Bat Boys.

Did Sony happen to say they will try and get them in for MLB 11 The Show?

No one asked how the commentary is in the game this year? Is it better then last year. Is it more fluid. This is huge for me.

Try to keep all your questions confined to a few posts. There's no reason to hit reply and post a question consecutively like that when the edit post feature works.

And the game will always have that you guess right you get great timing and its a popup. You will also still see those instances where you guess wrong your timing is off and you get a HR but no one ever talk about those.

Totally get the point ... but if you've done everything right from a player standpoint ... timing, location, guess right pitch you should be rewarded with good contact ... not a HR ... not even a hit ... but good contact.

To your point, if you do everything wrong as player, you absolutley should not be rewarded with good contact. Maybe a bloop hit ... maybe a seeing eye single ... but if you guess wrong on location, pitch and timing ... it should be a strike or weakly hit.

Wouldn't that be right from just a real baseball approach?

I may be a solitary voice on this, so forgive me if I'm beating this to death.

Just want to say thank you to the community day guys for doing a great job in covering a lot of different topics. Needless to say, I'm ready to report to spring training.

Re: Post thoughts here for Community Day Hands-on Impressions

Love what I hear from Pared especially about the playoff additions. I don't think it made it this year but one thing I think would be cool would be if they added "Black-outs" (all the WHITE SOX fans wear black with possibly a few fans from the opposing team in the stadium not wearing black of course) for certain White Sox home games. Now this doesn't have to be every playoff game but say clinching games. Since this was only just implemented in 2008, I really don't know how often the Sox plan on using this but as I said, I'd say clinching games.

What about the commentary? Why isn't anyone talking about that? Does anyone know anything about it?
