i believe it would be DeRosa gone, because Plesac tweeted a image of him working on commentary like a month or so ago.

So they'll have to re-record all those lines that with "D-Ro"? Man, that'll be a lot of work for someone!

Very excited by:

1) Contract Extensions in franchise mode. This is a much needed addition

2) Changes to defense

3) Changes to hitting

Cannot wait to see those two streams to see what has changed.

Very intrigued to see what "MARCH TO OCTOBER" is all about. My guess is its a new variation of season mode. Also believe that other franchise improvements will be mentioned in that stream/blog because they go hand in hand. The reason contract extensions is a footnote is because MARCH TO OCTOBER only lasts one season.

My .02 at least

Will reserve judgement before the streams but its not looking good for Franchise is it?

Like, contract extensions will be nice, but if thats all they've done in Franchise in 2 years, it's laughable.

Plesac is still there. Follow him on Twitter he's been showing himself in the booth working on commentary for the show.

Contract extensions. I feel like that is all that is new in franchise mode and that still has me excited

Super excited now. Having two new modes is outstanding (sounds like that 'March to October' might be a return of season mode. Also super intrigued by what they are doing with the corresponding 'Moments' mode for DD - but here's hoping they aren't trying to mimic MUT's god awful solo program - that would kill the mode for me.

Contract extensions are also a nice addition for franchise and if coupled with even a few tweaks to current aspects of the mode, will result in an improved mode.

Honestly though, it's going to come down to the changes made to hitting for me; if they catered too much to the "stik skillz" crowd, I'll be quickly going back to 18. (In fairness, I doubt that will be the case).

I gotta believe Directional Hitting will continue to not be dependent on "stick skills' and continue to be ratings driven, coupled with your button timing and pitch recognition skills. I do not use analog nor zone so the whole "more user skill driven" does not cater to me. It caters to E-Sports which is where all the major sports game are heading.

As long as my favorite sports game of all time does not remove those "simulation minded" options that I love I am good.

Color me luke warm till I see the streams though. This is the first time ever in my history of being a Show fan I am not gung ho about the newest version.

It will really come down to presentation and Franchise improvements. And if Road to October allows year to year saves as well.

Looking forward to the streams. And hopefully that will in turn make me look forward to changing my mind and picking up MLBTS 19.

We shall see.
