Does anyone know whether there's confirmation on these fixes:

1) Dropped third strikes with runners on at least 1B and 2 outs, the game forces us to make a throw for the out when this should not be the case. (Rule 6.05 I believe)

2) Runners should NOT be credited with a SB on a run and hit where the ball is put in play.

1) Actually, with two outs, the out ALWAYS has to be made at first regardless of baserunners. It is with 0 and 1 out that a runner on 1B makes the throw unecessary.

2) I agree that this was a huge bug last year. Also, on a run and hit where the ball is put in play, runners were given a CS if they were forced or tagged out. This is a huge bug that throws off statistical balance.

Quick question is this game going to be 1080p? Or 720p?

I'm pretty sure MLB 15 the show was 1080p on PS4. So 16 should be 1080p as well.

Are the same ML records in the game? Meaning, Cy young wins, Eric Gagne's consecutive saves streak, etc?

I can't help but wonder which cities will have frown faces for player morale.

This is mostly because I'm a huge Indians fan and my fair city in the 216 gets dumped on quite a bit by haters.

Hoping it is based on the fans in the city more than the location. Otherwise, everyone will pick Miami, LA or San Diego.

It's if there close to home or not. Does not matter the type of city.

Good to know... I have a feeling that I will be saving every penny through the 2017 season in hopes of attracting one of the big names to Cleveland.

Any word on how budgets will function and if they will increase with better team performance, etc?

I missed this stream and don't really feel like sitting through the archive to mine for one piece of information, so I'll ask you guys:

was anything mentioned re: gameplay about any actual on the field changes in the form of ball physics, the timing window (seems to change every year), hitting and pitching tuning, more variation in hit types, stuff like that? Actual on the field gameplay stuff, not franchise tweaks or animations or anything like that, but how the game plays.

I know that's kind of vague and open ended, but I was just thinking about all the new additions/changes this year and realized I can't remember hearing a single thing about any changes to the actual baseball on the field. I could be forgetting something though. Again I'm not talking about animations, they add hundreds of animations a year. I mean like "increase to balls hit down the line" or "more variation in ball trajectories" or something like that.
