    How many games in a "season"? Are all players game-ranges equal or will a starting pitcher have a 1/5 of the range because of how infrequent he'll actually play? Is this going to be available on the Vita - I think it's not, but I don't recall the official word.

              Just skimmed over some of the posts. Do you buy a pack of player cards and 'open' them to see what players you can use for a specified time?

              The reason I ask is you would have the excitement of 'opening' a pack of player cards, hoping you got some solid cards to use with your team.

              I would still miss the disgusting stick of chewing gum.

                      This sounds absolutely fantastic, and as a person who loves the MLB computer games without having the real-life desire to watch the sport (go Cards, I guess) or the time to sit through a 162-game season for the thrill of progression, rookies, etc. this is right up my alley.

                      Unfortunately, I've been wounded far too many times by the likes of FUT to have much faith in humanity and the inevitable attempts by people to school the system. However enticing you make the concept of building stars, I'd need to know the following things before I dipped my toes and import tax laden pounds in the water:

                      * Do you start with x amount of money to buy packs? As in, would it be possible for someone to set up a dummy account, then continually buy cards off the other account for peanuts, then recycle them all to get top MLB stars, or similarly keep creating dummy accounts to overpay for rubbish?
                      * Is there a way to buy your way to an eternal top team, however much money it cost? I've seen people drop 100 pounds on FUT cards on the first day it starts, so nothing would surprise me.
                      * What happens when someone inevitably rage quits, in regards to wins / losses, games played by your players, etc? Also, what happens to your stats for the MVP scores as a result?
                      * If you win every game on the top difficulty, is it possible to just continually play with an All-Star MLB team by buying MLB packs with the winnings?

                      Sorry if I sound incredibly cynical, it's just this mode was clearly used in other titles as a lucrative cash grab that they claim offers a brilliant experience but very quickly degenerates into everyone plays the best team possible - and if I wanted that, I'd select play now. I need to know it has the deep, captivating mode logistics behind it and not the TCG logistics.

                        I loved the gum that used to come in baseball card packs. Big League Chew became a favourite too.

                          How does this work in regards to picking award winners for the seasons and divisions? Let's say I have a great team that is able to beat 4/5 opponents 10-0 by the 4th inning and people keep quitting. Does this take away a game for them? If so, then some of these guys will never be eligible for one of the awards because they wouldn't have the ability to accumulate stats like some other players.

                            I've read the last few pages and did see these questions asked:

                            1. Is it possible to have duplicate players on the same team? Like if I buy two MLB packs and both of them improbably have Adrian Gonzalez.

                            2. Will be able to able to edit our custom teams at any time after playing? If I get tired of being, say, the Jacksonville Horses I can decide to become the Tokyo Robots?

                                Good question....
                                I'm sure there are things that will have to be figured out as they go along and things like this pop up(I'm NOT saying this doesn't have a solution already)....
                                This is also a good question in this situation as to whether it counts as a "game played".(quits against you)

                                Yes it is actually. But you are locked into his positions.
                                To be honest....I was a little "against" this one....but it is what it is.

                                We haven't heard on this yet(I don't think)
                                I'm hoping no on this....only because guys might be all over the place on this....renaming their teams and such every other game. It could get annoying.
