Depends on how much your actually wanting to play the games versus just simming.

MLB The Show will come no where close to offering the immersion in franchise mode that OOTP offers. It will be a skeleton in comparison.

But on the field, actually playing the game, MLB '20 is very good. I've read about and seen videos of the fielding issues, but since the latest patch, knock on wood, I haven't experienced the issues that others have. Not sure why, but I haven't. I'm not sure what the baserunning issues are, but I personally don't have an issue with baserunning using manual baserunning. I'm not sure if its tied to auto baserunning or not.

Anyways, if you're wanting to actually play out games and are ok with the fact that the franchise mode in the show will not be remotely close in depth as OOTP, then yes I would recommend buying the game.

Seconded. Franchise mode still has its warts but gameplay wise this is the best Show yet.

1. They Hire new managers and coaches at contract end. In all the years I have playing the show i’ve never seen cpu controlled teams fire a manager or coach mid season.

2. Never noticed, but I don’t think so.

Also not sure if this is the correct thread, but after I have signed my drafted players in franchise mode, when or how do I assign them to my minor league teams?



I cannot find the players in my roster, but I see that I have signed them.

They appear at the start of next season.

What in the world is going on with all the errors? It's starting to annoy me. Not just that, some guys will just flat-out not even go for the ball or I'll set up under the ball only having it to go right by them.
