looked like the temp changed often but it looks like some days were cool and other days were warm enough for short sleeves.( I live in Canada so Fahrenheit is always a pain for me to read)

I wonder why they could only show us the brands and not the equipment under each brand?

I was wondering the same thing. Maybe they aren't finished with all equipment yet? Maybe they are saving it for the RTTS create a player stream? Could be any number things. I hope they actually show all the new stuff, but as I recall last year they didn't show off any new brands (They told us the brands, but didn't go into detail). We actually found out what brands were in 16 from someone who got the game early and put a video up on YouTube.

I hope thats the case... Really hoping they have Adidas & Mizuno batting gloves and Nike catchers equipment.

I really hope they add the Nike catcher equipment, I always try to edit the players equipment to make them look like what they're using in real life, and as a Yankees fan, now Gary Sánchez is wearing Nike catcher gear...

Second this. Was wondering if there was anyone out there who was hoping for Nike catcher's gear as much as me.

Seems they aren't allowed to brighten them up a bit to more closely resemble their real life counterparts.
I disagree. This year they brightened up the Mariners teal jersey and the Red Sox red jersey and darkened the Pirates black jersey. They are able to brighten and darken colors they just haven't gotten to correcting all of them yet for whatever reason.

Some spring caps got in but not that one.

Look at the sun reflecting off the buildings!
A few years back the buildings outside of stadiums didn't even respond to sun/shadows.
That top pic with the red Twins jersey seems to have the brightness just right... they need to do the exact same thing with the Red Sox jersey and really ALL the reds in the game if they haven't done so already.

I wish the Nationals would have the Expos uniforms! I also wish they had the Reds in early 2000's

Can you confirm or deny that the Rangers home with red accessories is in there?

I assume the style guide doesn't have exact uniform sets. It has the pieces.

C
Then the Twins should also have the Senators, and the Yankees should have the Baltimore Orioles.

The Rangers sold the rights to the Senators' history when the Nationals started. The big deal in that is the curly "W" used to be Rangers property. Now the Nationals have the trademark.

The style guide doesn't include socks and undershirts

Style guide doesn't include accessories. Teams can mix and match those however they'd like. The only rule was that baselayer items had to be in a team color.

So why are we given the bs answer of, of it has to be like the style guide? If it's a resource and manpower issue as to why we can't select the underlayers and socks, I wish they'd just come out and admit it. Maybe then, people would back off the issue with that understanding. Instead it just looks like they are hiding behind a "style guide" rule that doesn't really exist. I love the Dev team and buy this game every year, but it's frustrating when I can't replicate a sock and underlayer combo that I see many times throughout the season.

I think in the past Sony interpreted it as socks and such did fall under the styleguide rules. Hopefully by 18 (maybe 17?) we can mix and match.

If the Indians can have the same jersey in the game twice with different undershirts and socks as they do for Show 17, then yes it is possible for them to give us the Rangers white jersey twice with different undershirts and socks. Why they don't is beyond me though.
