MLB The Show 21 Guessing Game - SDS Giving Away 2 Codes For the Top 2 Guessers...

[Steve_OS]

Steve_SDS is giving away 2 codes for MLB The Show 21.

Instructions, per Steve below (via this thread)

I will supply digital codes for TS21 to the top two guessers in honor of and in memory of Motown_OS. I was thinking more like guessing at a series of things in many different categories and see who gets the most.

Some examples of the things you’ve been guessing at:

• Date of first news
• New equipment sponsors (or not)
• New throwback jerseys (or not)
• Release dates
• New features (or not)
• Cover athlete (or something else)
• Cover reveal date
• Rule changes (or not)
• Any other guesses? List them.

Good luck! I'll sticky this and the community can decide on the top 2 guessers when the time comes (probably a couple of weeks prior to release date)

Date of first news: 1/18/21

Release date for PS5: 5/17/21

Cover athlete: I’m guessing there’s a mash up of at least one older (retired) player and one current player

Cover reveal date: 2/18/21

Date of first news: 1/15/21

Cover reveal date: 2/4/21

• Date of first news {January 32nd}
• New equipment sponsors (or not) {Dr. Scholls shoes -for older managers}
• New throwback jerseys (or not) {Turn the Clock Forward Futuristic Yankee pinstripeless Darth Vader themed Evil Empire jersey circa 2070}
• Release dates {Juneteenth - PS5, Marchteenth - PS4}
• New features (or not) {edible pitcher deliveries - for the cannibal in all of us}
• Cover athlete (or something else) {something else - Manferd's goofy toothy Cheshire smiling mug would really hit home}
• Cover reveal date {February 30th}
• Rule changes (or not) {DH totally removed from the Show - San Diego doesn't rely on one as a crutch, why should you?}

First and foremost, I want to say that its a great gesture on the part of Steve-SDS and the SDS team to do this and in the memory of Motown.

Date of first news: February 8th

New equipment sponsors (or not): Nike Catcher Gear

New throwback jerseys (or not): None

Release dates: PS4/PS5: March 30th - Xbox/other platforms: May 4th

New features (or not): Not sure if qualifies as new feature, but Season mode returns. Also think that while create a stadium doesn't make it in, there are 4 default major league stadiums that allow you to place logos of rebranded teams in them. Stadiums are retractable roof, dome, and two open stadiums with different backgrounds

Cover athlete (or something else): No cover athlete this year. Just a bat, ball, and a glove

Cover reveal date: January 29th

Rule changes (or not): DH is defaulted to on for both leagues with option to adjust to off or AL only

Any other guesses? List them.

I think that franchise mode gets some of the TLC that it deserves:

* Rosters expanded to 104 total (26 at each level; MLB, AAA, AA, A)
* Editing managers makes its long awaited debut
* Players wear team jerseys in All-Star games (next gen only)
* Past World Series Champions list (next gen only)
* Rotating interleague schedules (next gen only)

Can we make the following four things the standard guessing game questions for this contest... just to minimize long posts?

Date of first news: 1/25/21

Release date for PS5: 5/14/21

Cover athlete: Tatis Jr.

Cover reveal date: 1/25/21
