Looks promising, especially as an xbox user. Been waiting to a baseball game for sooooooo long. And hopefully this gets the engine going on xbox

How can you have a 10 year Franchise mode without any A.I. trades?

Even as a PS4 (and MLB The Show fan) I've purchased this title every year for my iPhone, and last year for my Switch. It's been fun for what it is... a pick up and play arcade baseball title. With these changes? This is another guaranteed buy for me on Switch this year. Also, LOVE the roster update ability even once a Franchise has started. That's something I've always wanted and never understood why it didn't exist. I'm in.

Do you know if we will have the ability to trade players to different teams without using franchise mode?

If* somehow they are able to add A.I. trades in the game and in franchise mode i'll consider a purchase when it comes out. I'm not going to go season to season trading players for different teams. It defeats the purpose imo.

Glad to know there is another baseball game coming out. Now all we need is another High Heat Baseball from Microsoft, or Triple Play from EA and i'll be one happy gamer!*
