    2 things that stood out to me was that this year they included a zone batting option and they did not change the fact that you have no control over sliding into bases.

        It will be interesting to hear more about zone batting. I wasn't going to get ASB, but it may just jump ahead of MVP or WSB because of all of the options for the hitting interface. Basically you can play them all and see which is best. The only thing though is that hopefully they all don't suck. I hate games that add options just to add options. The timing swing in ASB last year was garbage. I hope this zone swing option is good.

            No 4 man pitching rotations.

            Roofs would be opened/closed based upon weather at that time of year.

            Fixed lineups being changed when you made trades/roster moves. However, CPU will automatically sit players when tired.

                "No 4 man pitching rotations"...Does this mean that you must have a 5 man rotation or what?

                    No 4 man rotations eh? So I guess you can't ride Schill and the Big Unit to the pennant if the NL West race is tight. That's not very sim-like.

                        Correct 4 man is not included something about sim results and ran out of time to include it.

                        Also, I did ask if the player editor allowed you to change a players name. YES it does so whoever they have plugged in you can change their names to Brian Daubach, Benny Agbayani, Reed, Shane Spencer, Matsui, Contreras etc...

                            ASB was extremely boring last year. A lot of people complain about bells and whistle's not making a game, but those bells and whistles do help.

                            Hitting was really hard at first last year, but once i got the hang of it, i was getting doubles in the gaps every at bat.

                            I hope they changed my 2 complaints
