      When you go back to school, you will compete in the Showcase again against new players. Also, when you choose to sign with a team that drafts you, the entire draft class will enter into the pros with you, however most of them are assigned to Single-A first, so you will probably only be seeing them once they make their way up the organizational ladder. Still, it is very possible that you will be playing against the number one overall pick in your draft somewhere down the line.

      Your first year of pro ball will always be 2014. The Showcase and Draft is always in an ambiguous year, so even if you do four years of school, the year you sign and begin your career will be the 2014 season.
      Do the players replace those already in the roster?

      For example if I start RTTS with OSFM and have 15 players in single A, will the draft picks from the showcase replace them?

        So either you play pro ball at 18 with low ratings in 2014 or play at 22 with higher ratings if go back to college. This will be fun to play around with for sure. Is it May yet????????

          I will always love this series but it's time for negatives because this community gives to much praise & little negative. First with RTTS where's a draft presentation? Why can't you do that? Base it off the real life like MLB network. I want to here player voices like in NBA 2k14. & I can still see that the fielding animations are horrible still they look like the guy is on some drug. I'm sorry but MVP baseball had better fielding animations & that was in 2005! In MLB they always were stiff. I'm hoping this is just the ps3 version & vita. Because NBA did do this also I was hating & then the ps4 stuff came out. So I'll give it time. But you guys need to be quicker with info I understand about the ps4 but the ps3 doesn't really have anything either? Like what? Come on. & with NBA 2k In mind make a good my team like with historic packs & team packs & etc. No one wants fake players. If you copied the nba 2k my team you would have so much fans. Baseball & MLB the show will always be life both in real life & my video game. Form ruin it. Show improvements & how about this little detail you know how a pitcher or batter steps out how about you make the screen shake making you want to step out making it more realistic. & also show fights & brawls. & get the new replay system in there please everything I just said.......

            Wow, I'm so pumped!!! May can't come quick enough! I'm so happy that my numbers are what will decide my fate, and not those goals. I had a hard time making those goals because I can't read small print, so always would need someone to come read for m every time they came up. Also, the option to have the play-by-play is huge!!Last year, I couldn't play rtts, because I rely so much on that. I can't wait to broadcast my first mlb at bat!
            1458, not counting playoffs, that's the number of games in a row I haven't missed! Go Yanks!

              Oh god no. "My Team" and "Ultimate Team" modes are ruining sports gaming as we know it. Keep up the good work on franchise and RTTS SCEA.

                    2x Boost is an awesome idea, while its not getting many peoples attention I bet once the game drops or next winter it gets talked about plenty. A nice addicting new feature that will make people want to use and gain their "stubs" - Brilliance!

                    Also as mentioned before, if you choose to go to school it would be cool if they at least acknowledged what school you choose, Im a big UNC fan, it would be pretty cool to hear them say Joe Random out of North Carolina, or during his time in Chapel Hill he elevated his game etc...
                    However in saying that I know there could be legal licence issues

                    Catching looks a lot more immersive

                      LOL, while it was very incoherent he had ONE point, it would be nice to see bit more of an NBA 2k feel in terms of storyline and voice over with MLB Network integration. But ya.... not sure how people can be overly disappointed with this blog

                        Not only do you have a better chance at going to AAA, but if the situation is right, you COULD jump right from AA to MLB.

                          There is also a 4x boost looking so if you can earn stubs quickly enough you can really speed up the process.

                          The college thing might not be that easy or worth it for such a small non-gameplay aspect of the game.

                            Dont know if this has been asked but...
                            If you choose to go back to school, do you also re-do the Amateur Showcase???

                              Are all of these upgrades to Road to the Show available for the offline/non-connected version of the mode as well?

                              Also, has any tweaks been made to the progression that makes the mode more grindy to incentivize microtransaction purchases (ala NBA 2K14?)
