Franchise mode in general is really what holds this game from greatness. I wish we could combine the efforts from NBA 2k presentation, stat keeping, and the immersion they have in their franchise mode...that with the gameplay of this game would take it to the next level.
It is disappointing that every year they seem to do nothing to improve their franchise mode. The budget looks different but that's nothing.
I beg of the devs to please dive deep into improving franchise mode for MLB 18. I will gladly take no additions, just to fix the problems that have plagued this game's franchise mode for years.
Examples would be the regression and progression system. Better models and more prospects for drafts. Cpu lineup logic, and bullpen management logic. Cpu roster management logic needs to be improved overall but pretty good nonetheless.

Franchise trading should be its own mini game. Offer 6 players for a star, and maybe the other GM says, "I like it, give me a few days to think about it." Then, he comes back saying, "eh, it's alright, but one of the players had a broken shoulder last year." Another franchise mechanic - the trainer screen - would allow you to give players physicals so you can see what their health is like. Forget the boring fatigue sliders and injured states. Revamp the injury system so that players get rating drops based on whatever injury they have. Then, you can send GMs player medical reports to boost the chance of them accepting the deal.
Medical reports can also give the player or GM an advantage when it comes to contract discussions, which could be a similar mini game to trading. If Kershaw's a FA and he had a broken elbow last year, he shouldn't demand the same amount as if he was perfectly healthy.
If Kershaw's on the DL for all of April to June with elbow soreness and he comes back in July, other GMs shouldn't immediately say YES give me Kershaw for Harper / Trout / Lindor. They should say, "eh, we don't trust his elbow. You need to give us more or prove he's healthy."
There's so much more that can go into a mini trade game. Right now, the trade system is disrespectful to all of us. It's 2017, and we're stuck trading 3 players at a time, checking every possible trade scenario against GMs who never get annoyed, frustrated, or try to rip us off. They always tell you what deals are acceptable. I don't have to tell you that the franchise trade system is a total joke.
