Adding Spring Training/Minor League Stadiums

DanKreider · 03-09-2016, 06:54 PM

It would be great if there was even a single (or even better, a few) generic minor league stadiums, that could also double for Spring Training.

I like to play out a lot of my games and get eyes on prospects, players of interest, etc by watching them play a few games, but it is kind of annoying to always have a standard Major league stadium show up that their games take place in (typically Phillie's stadium in OOTP16).

Any chance we can have some smaller parks set up, as the go to generic stadium, to watch prospects (A,AA,AAA, etc) and spring training games in (rather than having to manually set them up for each hometown team)?

One of these years I'd love to see a fully recreated Spring Training with designated facilities, split squad games, the whole works. It would be an opportunity for a pitcher to work on a single pitch, or a position player to focus on a different position or other possibilities for a focused skill improvement.

A helpful thing here would be dedicated spring training schedules. That would allow a much higher fidelity recreation, especially if a specific "host city" or "host stadium" field was added to the schedule files. That would allow recreation of the sort of barnstorming that MLB clubs used to do in earlier years during the latter part of spring training. It would also allow neutral site games for the regular season, and the recreation of when a club opened a new park during the season, or split its home games among different parks.
