thank you!

I think by "working weather" he means can a game start out sunny and then start raining in the 4th inning. Or maybe a game starts out in the rain and then the sun comes out later in the game. A better word for it would be "dynamic weather"

Or I could be wrong too

We the fans DO want rain delays and doubleheaders. That is what happens in the MLB. We want a realistic game.

Very obvious, but we don't and until we can design a compelling way to do it we won't. It's never at the top of the list to begin with so the chances are slim year to year. That is until someone comes up with a compelling design that makes sense.

On the realistic note the game will never be "realistic" if it was everyone would suck at the game. There is a fine line between what people think they want in "realism" standards and the contrast between fun.

Hey Ramone, can you say anything that has been improved in Franchise mode?

Did a player search option make it in this year ??

Can spring training be completely skipped this year to avoid custom line-ups from being scrambled ?
