Sees "Manage Game" and breathes sigh of relief...

Did they put Espresso K-Cups at the Keurig stand?!

Man, with this new commentary in between pitches (eg. Tulo at bat), I'm gonna have to give up on playing with quick counts.

I like the variety of different lines, but there in no passion behind the readings.

Sounds like guys acting and reading lines, other then real calls.

I heard some excitement when they were showing some good defensive stops.

Obviously, with the large amount of commentary lines/improvements, it's hard to judge it just from the stream. I think once we play it and hear all the new lines, I bet we will notice some improvements in the excitement on different calls.

Looking forward to the stream. Have any significant improvements been made to crowd atmosphere?

I haven't had more than 5 hours of sleep a night since the new year. I'm basically surviving off red bull and kale smoothies to keep from passing out lol.

Prior to The Show 15, batter and pitcher analysis was on the D pad, and moved to a pause menu in The show 15. Does anyone happen to know if this is still under stats in the pause menu or has it comeback to the D pad?

I'd like to see far less cut scenes when the catcher is throwing the ball back to the pitcher. When they brought up the game for LAD vs. LAA, the first pitch was taken and there was no cut scene or camera movement. It stayed in CF the full time.

I would honestly say I'd like to see it like this 50% of time instead of the seemingly 90% probability of a cut scene.

So that's what's in the cup! Sounds like a horrible mix!

I wonder if there's a way to speed up some of the commentary on the bang bang plays. For example, at some point in the feed, there was a bunt or a dribbler up the third base line, the third baseman ran in and threw the ball to first for a bang bang out. The problem was that it went, throw, out, THEN Matt said something to the effect of "the throw, he's out!" I feel like something needs to be done specifically for bang bang plays. In real life, the announcer would be saying that either simultaneously with the ump calling the out, or a millisecond after. It wouldn't be a good second or two after the out is called. Ramone, any chance there's still time to look at the commentary on bang bang plays and somehow cut out the time in between to speed them up?

In a similar vain, and this may sound like a joke, but it actually isn't: is there any way to speed up EK's commentary? He is decent, but I think what causes him to sound unexcited is that everything he says is so deliberate and slow, almost plodding. I feel like if what he said was just slightly faster, it would change the entire feel of it.

They updated Andrelton Simmons stance/follow-through!

I gotta admit, the info about 16 has pretty much blown me away at this point. 15 was already my favorite game of last year, and just about every minor gripe or nitpick I had about that game has been addressed this year... and then some.

At first I was disappointed at the lack of a fact sheet this year, but now I ain't even mad. And to think there's still more to come...

Yankee Stadium looks great as always.

Michael Pineda's new pitching motion looks PERFECT. Can't say the same for Tanaka who we saw earlier in the broadcast, but hey that's life.
