I realize that we haven't been given a ton of info, but given what we do know, this game should NOT be over $20. If it is, then that's highway robbery.

Seems like the perfect iOS game.

So it's about faithfulness over authenticity, then?

I understand there are some things that you want to pay homage to, but others have to kick it a nickel.

Agreed. Just saying, it doesn't "make zero sense". There is a reason for it.

Just like the old days, 4 man rotation and no relievers.

Right. If you are a fan of the original RBI. It makes perfect sense.

Though securing the rights to use the names of inactive or retired players can be difficult and costly, Leece said “there are some plans for some downloadable content down the road,” including some classic players or teams.

Interesting...

Looking at those screen shots again makes me wonder about the 4 pitchers and 12 hitters. Would Uehera for Boston and Wacha for the Cards be one of their teams 4 pitchers? That would seem odd but who knows.

Original RBI had closers didn't it?

I'm guessing the sox would have the 9 starters.

Lester, buchholz, lackey or peavy, koji

Then 3 pinch hitters.
