I know MLB 20 is still pretty fresh, and we're likely 6+ months away from anything next-gen related for The Show, but with NBA and Madden giving teasers into next-gen, it's got me thinking on what's possible. I feel like current gen is pretty much tapped out with what it can hold. Hard for me to imagine it being much more than a roster update over the next few years. Would love to hear what others are hoping for as move to the new consoles.

I'm excited for things that I think current gen just wasn't capable of doing. Things like revamped player skeletons and models. Multiple uniform templates (jersey styles and pant fits). Expanded uniform slots. Cloth physics. Option to choose mow pattern in the grass. Players w/ their respective team uniforms for the All-Star game. Enhanced day-night transitions. So much potential!

Someone else to make a Baseball game.

For me its to see quality of life improvements within franchise mode.

* Editable coaches/managers
* Expanded rosters
* Re-done/re-worked scouting system
* Re-done/Re-worked draft
* Expanded stats
* Players wearing team jerseys in all-star game
* Rotating interleague schedules
* New injury system wear injury history follows players

There's more but that is what pops in my head to start.

Gameplay is solid and I expect that to be improved and better on the next-gen consoles as well as sound, animations, player models, etc...

Really looking forward to the advancements this series makes on the next-gen hardware.

A improved franchise all around. Smarter AI for cpu management.

I will more then likely wait a year before getting a PS5 and MLBTS to make sure bugs are all worked out.

Fix AI legacy issues. That'd do it for me.

*obligatory create-a-stadium post here*

also a uniform creator and uniform vault.

I would also like it if it could print money, if that's not asking too much

Players wearing their team uniforms during the all star game.
EA was able to do it with NBA Live on PS3/Xbox 360 and Konami was able to do it with PYS on the PS2...

Different new player models

Managers having Win-Loss records

Hopefully no more robotic looking pitching motions, it’s one of the things that have bothered me with MLB The Show.
