Anybody know the answer?
I'm not sure about a 1-team franchise, but when I do a 30-team control franchise I can just set the other teams' sponsors myself.

Loved setting the prices, all we need now are news articles and we are all set!

Agreed, hopefully it resembles MVP baseball owner's mode regarding the different pricing points and promotional days!

Just wish the franchise main screen included more seasonal stats and standings like some of you said; it would be pretty convenient to have them on that screen.

If this is true, I really hope that the CPU teams in franchise mode also have the ability to intelligently manage their finances, and that it isn't something that's static. If it is static, it would seem like it would give the User team an advantage, as you will basically be able to engineer higher cash flows, thus making more money than the CPU teams.

This has always been the case with Sponsorships; the User team can boost it's cash flow with sponsorships, but CPU teams can't, thus giving a huge bonus to User teams. I simply don't use them for this reason.

I really hope that the CPU can also use the "Challenges" that appear on the Franchise menu.

What I'm trying to say is to please make all of these bonuses applicable to CPU teams as well; they're nice features but they always seem to give the advantage to the User, and these new features are never really catered to people who like to run balanced, realistic franchises, where the User is on the same base as the CPU.

Maybe I'm completely wrong and all of this will be addressed in the Franchise twitch stream, but I just wanted to give my thoughts on this since it has been this way in previous MLB The Show games.

Depends on if you add sponsors to the CPU teams or not, which I always do when starting up a chise.

I'm sure there are some that are the same. And rightly so.

One of the most encouraging things I saw was a ball that died in the corner on a screamer down the line... the physics in that situation called for that and it happened. Guy got in to second base easy.
