Has anyone actually confirmed there are big changes coming to franchise mode and stuff like actual stat tracking? Cause I have only seen people say they were excited about it and nothing actually official confirm that changes are coming.

Another de-confirmation via Twitter: Single-A teams. I'd like to have seen it happen but I honestly wasn't expecting it.

Ramone already said last year Single A probably wont happen. I'd like to see them expand the A roster though to 20-25 at least.

Meh, so many C and D rated prospects, I don't know if I would bother doing anything with those additional 10 roster spots...

but that's just me, and that's a conversation for another thread I suppose

This would actually help when teams call up random players that OSFM doesn't have. Perfect example would be the Braves and Marlins this past season. Half they pitchers those teams called up weren't even in the first few OSFM releases.

Anyone think Dusty Baker will be in the game for the Nats?

It's the same crap every year. The fact that you can't transfer your online franchise says enough.

I have faith that SCEA will deliver...I fully expect to see tons of stats.

They even have a MLB Network partnership this year! With the radio show last year, I'm excited what the MLBN connection will bring to the game/franchise.

I will fall in love with this game again if they finally make Progressive Field more accurate. I believe they said the renovations were gonna be in last year, but there was a delay on the Indians end. So I know it wasn't really their fault.

I just hope they fixed it this year. Its so hard for me to play in the stadium when its not accurate.

Don't get too excited about that. As one poster shared an image, that ad that we saw in the teaser trailer was actually in the game last year too.

I don't believe/recall seeing this in 2015.

I didn't either. But a poster posted a screenshot back in one of the previous threads and sure enough it was in the game last year.

I can tell you that Progressive had some of the most details and photos submitted to the stadium team. I think it should be very promising.
