I'm thinking they will keep the current 3 man crew and add a second 2 man crew that will change based on presentation package

It is fun to see the guessing

Could it be that the two new broadcaster names do a wrap up/around the league show? Or maybe a pre/post game show?

Got it!

The first new commentator based on the stars is none other than Ramone Russell.

That would be my guess too... MLB network presentation a la NBC on NHL and 2 new broadcasters for around the league results between innings.

Really interested to see this new catch and throw engine and put together with better ball physics this could make the defensive side of the ball so much more fun and exciting again. This could really make it more difficult to play the field and really change the variation of plays made. So excited!

Franchise deep dive - I wonder what launch pad is about.

Player quirks I'm guessing is an addition to what was introduced last year with player morale/personality. My memory isn't the best but I think Russell mentioned this last year on a live stream that they wanted to add to that.

Looking forward to the stream.

Isn't the interactive TV on MLB Network called the Launch Pad?

Here is an example of it referred to as that as well as many other videos:

Gasp...just realized..MLB network always has two people around the launch pad when talking. It would make sense to bring that type of analysis of talking about the league or hot issues into franchise mode. 2 new presenters + launch pad + MLB network = maybe something just like the above linked video?!?!?

I thought at first that it was Dan Plesac but his name doesn't fit the stars. The only person that I can think of that fits the stars is Dan O'Dowd.

Guess we'll find out March 2nd.


Joe Davis, the play by play for the Dodgers, fits too

Very excited about presentation!! Because I can't see the immages, what makes you say mlb network presentation? I would imagine the two new booth guys would be pre/middle/post, unless they're replacing the other two color guys, but don't think that's it. Either way, can't wait for 3/2!

Bill Ripken?

Could one commentator be Jon Morosi. Works for MLB Network

Finally, some information. I thought I was going to die.

Inside Edge, will it expand to other modes, or will it remains a DD feature.
 
# 77 bxphenom7 @ 01/25/17 02:41 PM
Ok, I'm hyped up again! Everything I read there sounds dope!

That would be amazing. I think back to NFL 2K5 when they had the Sportscenter show at the end of the week where Chris Berman went through all of the highlights and news. That would be awesome to see in Franchise mode in the show if it was something like you mentioned.
