Makes sense from a business standpoint. Hopefully, the decison to put him on the cover was based on it was cheaper than putting on another high value player who would ask more for endorsement and that more money went into the development of the game due to the awesome features they are adding this year...LOL

You're not the only one. I don't like the idea of the same guy back to back. I was hoping to be surprised.

But you are surprised though, right? See, it worked!

Doesn't matter much to me because I would buy it if Betty Crocker was on the cover, but it does surprise me. Reason being I remember someone asking a game developer one time why not use the same athlete from year to year...the response was that by doing so the "casual gamer" would feel there was no difference in the game.

I see what you mean, but I meant being surprised with a NEW cover Athlete. You knew that

Didn't see that coming...I like it though!

Booo! Should have been Josh Hamilton or Miguel Cabrera.

It must have something to do with fishing trips in Cabo. Who knows what goes on down there. Mauer must have some dirt on the VP.
