New Game Mode I'd like to See

[SomeRandomDude]

I'd like to set up a Playoff race like you can in NBA 2k11. I think the games been lacking that for a while now. I want to be able to make up match ups with teams that would probably never play each other in the playoffs any time soon, (but with their actual players.) Because a lot of people tell me to just do a fantasy draft than, but I don't mean it like that I want to be able to put the worst teams in the MLB against each other. Imagine a playoff series like this:

Baltimore Orioles vs Cleveland Indians
Toronto Blue Jays vs Oakland A's

Pittsburgh Pirates vs Arizona Diamondbacks
Washington Nationals vs San Diego Padres

Something like that ...I know in real life that may be boring to a lot of people but in the game I'd be very interested to see how a playoff like that would end up going.

Imagine like a Oakland A's vs San Diego Padres World Series as something interesting?

I actually have never understood why a playoff mode is not in the game.
What with all the complex things these guys add i would have thought that a dedicated playoff mode would be a piece of cake

a playoff & tourney mode is needed

x2. Doesn't make any sense really. It's something that is already in the game (just not as a standalone mode) and in many, many other games. I don't get it?

Playoff mode would make it possible to have a tournament with your buddies. It would be cool but I never play playoff modes in other games. You can always have a couple beers and play exhibition.

Since when are the Jays considered a bad team? Even the A's aren't that bad. Padres for sure aren't a bad team either.

If you really wanted to do a worst playoff team race it should be:

O's vs Royals
Mariners vs Indians

Nats vs Pirates
Dbacks vs Cubs

This will be Cubs best shot of winning WS lol.
