Well it did slip out that Harold Reynolds was recording lines for "a video game". If I remember correctly though, Matt was there during that time that Harold was recording. So I wouldn't jump to that conclusion. Funny thing is when it was mentioned neither Harold or Matt said anything and just ignored the comment. I'm pretty positive that Harold is one of the new commentators. If I were guessing I would say that the other new commentator is John Smoltz, just a gut feeling.

As far as commentary goes, I would just like for it to not sound like they are recording it at different times. It never had much fluidity with it.

I hope you're wrong, because it needs to be done together to make it really good. I know they worked hard with Matt to get more excitement out of him, and to sound more like his tv self, guess we'll hear some on March 2.

I agree, It definitely needs to be done together. However, if they start recording it differently the commentary will sound just as bad with them adding the newly recorded lines to the older lines.

This is why I think it would be so much easier to have a 2-man booth.
Maybe even have 2 sets of 2-man booths so as to have 4 commentary guys instead of 3.

This is a GREAT idea actually. The first commentary suggestion i've seen that's realistic and really good.

If they could ever secure a Fox or FS1 presentation package in addition to MLB-Net, they could have a 2-man, say Bob Costas & Harold Reynolds. But if you select the FS1 package, you get Matty V & John Smoltz.

I would freakin' love that.

Not to be negative, but we will more likely see retro mode upgraded incrementally every year than that effort put into commentary.

Haha you can't start out a sentence saying "not to be negative but..." And then have your own idea about something without any proof if what you just stated. We haven't even seen yet what they've done with commentary this year. At least hold off until the game actually releases
