This also means their name change is that the Dolan Family owns the rights to Cleveland Indians® and is NOT to be used for profit or marketing by Major League Baseball.



Which means any game using the likeness of MLB in association with the MLBPA CANNOT use the Cleveland Indians moniker. Would you risk your tone deaf stubbornness to lose a licensing agreement, which in theory, if this was your company, could lead to the demise of a product, if not the entire company? I think not.



See above in retrospect to the registered trademark. Don't like it? Just buy OOTP22 and stick with it.
