    Real Managers?

    Ok I'll give props to Kush for this game, I love it. But I have one small wish/gripe. Why are there not more Major League managers in this game? It's nice to have my beloved Reds all face-scanned all nce and purty, but I miss Jerry Narron. Just like last year I had to hire Felix Luna, because I had some terrible fake manager. I'm pretty sure I remember Wille Randolph and Tony Larussa from the demo but where are the rest?

    The managers are, in most cases, personalities just as much as players. Is the issue cost? It would be really nice to have these guys with their respective coaching philosophies be included in this game. Just as much as it is great to have the signature animations. Or if this isn't doable, have a create-a-manager mode. I'd love to make a Lou Pinella or Billy Martin that I could fire 7 times. Or maybe I'll just make my Bob Brinkman manager:wink:

    It would be nice to have more options in that facet of things....
    Note to Tiburon Marketing:

    A great product sells itself, no "back of the box" features required! (See Fifa...)

        Most of the managers are in the game, I believe.

          All 6 of my Managers and scouts are on my Giants but the pitching Coach. Rags is not there its some other guy. Could be a licensing thing, maybe some coaches didnt want to be in the game?

            The game actually has coaches other thanjust the managers (like real pitching/batting coaches?)

            Is it possible to hire a teams manager/batting coach/pitching coach then?

            Would be really cool to hire someone like Don Mattingly as your manager.

            The depth of coaches in Madden adds a lot to the depth. If its in MLB that def. boosts replay value. 2K is always week on the coaches.
