Sounds like a great step forward, can't wait!!

So happy to see this for opening day!!!

I would assume we will also get player introductions for the All Star game and post season as well.

Awesome work, now would love to scout and draft vs other users in an online franchise. Please for MLB 14!!! GABP LF wall looks great

So now that the franchise blog is out, any of the CD guys care to go in-depth about player progression? I'm sure you're working on those ratings charts as we speak Knight

The video seems to show Player Introductions and the National Anthem on Opening Day... THANK YOU SCEA!! Buying a PS3 just for one game was one of the best ideas I ever had!!

2017 Royals budget: $121 Mil

Sounds great - loving the "MLB ETA" info for scouting. Can't wait to get my own time with the game in a month to really feel the changes.

One thing that sticks out from a design perspective is the Acquisition Updates screen. In the future I think it'd be nice to have the names of the players listed appear in a different color than their salary/contract info; just to differentiate the info. Obviously everyone's eyes are different, so it might not stick out to others.

But that's a minor thing - the mode itself looks awesome.

Thanks a lot SCEA, as if I wasn't as excited enough...

Anyone notice in my Player Introductions screenshots in one screenshot the players have hats on and in the other screenshot not only do they not have hats on but they are nowhere to be seen. I am going to guess that the hats are off because the National Anthem is playing but shouldn't the players be holding their hats?

Anyone besides me find that a little odd?

Man, that first shot of GABP is beautiful.

I guess since this is a FRANCHISE blog people may be occupied with the main content. Just a guess though!

They should have their hats in hand, but maybe there was a technical code reason that they couldnt.

This WAS an observation about the content.
