Well I think Mike Trout is safe to scratch off the list... 
I'd love to see Bryant (really looking to tailor to that youth crowd), but just to throw another name out there how about Corey Seager (though not expecting it).

With all due respect to Jose Fernandez and the nice gesture it would be, I feel it would be a bit weird and maybe even depressing to put a recently and tragically deceased person on the cover of a video game.

Yeah. I tend to agree.

Not a big Ortiz fan(Even less Koby). But he has always been a part of the show. The devs like him. That is why I wouldn't be surprised if they do something with him.
Maybe some kind of 2 player cover from this years World Series like Javy Baez/Francisco Lindor. Or they are going to honor Vin Scully.

I love the Scully recs. Such a legend. Even though the thread title says cover athlete, going outside of the strict definition to honor Scully would be great.
For players, I'd really like to see at the very least a Fernandez cover special edition, maybe an alternate cover.
I wonder if they'll go with a predictive Cubs WS championship pick and honor Bryant or Rizzo or Lester. As historic as a Cubs win would be for baseball, I wonder if The Show might want to capture that in some way with the cover selection.

How about a pitcher for a change, Kluber anyone?

Madison Bumgarner will be the cover boy for MLB The Show 17 book it now!!!
Also would be the first pitcher to grace the cover.

I think this may be the earliest they ever revealed the cover boy before.
I know last year they also released some video footage along with the announcement so hopefully this year will be the same.
Heck a few screen shots would be fine too

It won't be a San Francisco Giant. Cy Young awards, 3 World Series trophies, and an MVP winner doesn't get you covers.
