More around 7 but I see you're point. Forgot all about that. I don't know then. Maybe it simply isn't a requested feature and is harder to implement that we know.

Does anyone know whether there's confirmation on these fixes:

1) Dropped third strikes with runners on at least 1B and 2 outs, the game forces us to make a throw for the out when this should not be the case. (Rule 6.05 I believe)

2) Runners should NOT be credited with a SB on a run and hit where the ball is put in play.

1) Actually, with two outs, the out ALWAYS has to be made at first regardless of baserunners. It is with 0 and 1 out that a runner on 1B makes the throw unecessary.

2) I agree that this was a huge bug last year. Also, on a run and hit where the ball is put in play, runners were given a CS if they were forced or tagged out. This is a huge bug that throws off statistical balance.

For rounds 6-10 only 21% make it to MLB and only 6% last 3 years. The results regress the lower in the draft a player is taken. After round 20 only 1% last 3 years in MLB.

To replicate the MLB draft you would be populating the game with close to 1,000 extra players every year the vast majority of whom are worthless filler for milb squads.

The current system in the show is done so the devs can replicate a franchise in future years which has an adequate number of MLB level players without overwhelming the game with worthless players. MLB does it to keep their milb affiliates populated with an adequate number of players with a salary which allows those teams to make a profit. For me it would be a chore to go through the system every off season and release 30 worthless players to be replaced by 30 worthless players simply to fill the milb affiliates with cheaper labor.

I wonder if the hit and run bug impacts anything other than stats. With progression based stats does the game punish or reward a player based on steals and caught stealing? It sounds like the kind of thing they would fix because it is probably a simple fix.

Quick question is this game going to be 1080p? Or 720p?

Definitely 720p for PS3 and I am guessing 1080p on PS4 like last year.
