Do we know anything about how multiple seasons/franchise/career mode will be handled? Draft, trades, stat-tracking?

I sat around 95 ego for pitching, and found power pitching significantly easier to hit my spots with, due to being able to "stop" the reticle at any time. In the gameplay reveal video, Scott Drader (dev) mentions a new balance between power pitches and regular pitches, so we'll see what that means exactly.

It's more of a pick up and play game not a full on baseball sim. It will track stats and those stats will carry over from season to season but there is no trading/draft/etc.

Also there is no career mode.

edit: Just to mention for clarity there is some management aspects in the game such as dealing with injuries and some line up management (shown in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=689AtbWlUbw&t) but it just won't be an in depth sim like you would find in other games.

It's all customization stuff. Specifically from a comment they made on twitter

"They contain customization content like additional logo components, pre-made team designs, player tattoos and new styles of eyewear"
