They can't skip a cycle even if they wanted to.

If they could skip a cycle, which like Kehlis said they can't, why would they? They would lose so much $$$ from doing that. And you think Sony would OK with that?

I think he was referring to himself skipping a cycle or two

Is it possible we will ever see foreign leagues (Japanese, Korean, Cuban ect) in The Show, with full integration into franchise mode? So we can actually sign Japanese and Cuban players in the off season. That would be incredibly dope. MLBTS is the only game ( other than madden) that doesn't have foreign teams of any kind. But they would be the first (other than FIFA) to fully integrate them in franchise mode.

Make it happen SCEA...Please

I don't know about foreign leagues, that would be a very costly undertaking I'm guessing. But it might be cool if they at did, at some point, add an International Free Agent category which you could sign players from in the off-seasons.

I disagree. Having Japan, Korea, Cuba, Mexico in the game, where they could actually post players would be amazing. You would basically bring OOTP to MLBTS.

Except MLBTS won't have the rights to the International players so they would all be generated or created players. I personally don't like the way that they generate players names/appearances in The Show.

A posting system and signing international prospects on July 2nd would be great.

It was a little better last season. A lot less handle bar mustaches and Freddy Mercury look alikes. Equipment is still weird on generated players though.

Has anyone actually confirmed there are big changes coming to franchise mode and stuff like actual stat tracking? Cause I have only seen people say they were excited about it and nothing actually official confirm that changes are coming.

Another de-confirmation via Twitter: Single-A teams. I'd like to have seen it happen but I honestly wasn't expecting it.

Ramone already said last year Single A probably wont happen. I'd like to see them expand the A roster though to 20-25 at least.
