Enjoy the game! We'll keep you posted on the progress of Perfect Team and future OOTP 19 updates.

Cheers,
Markus & the entire OOTP Team

The now ex-owner of the Braves in my franchise is going to be so mad. If we would have won the 2018 Wild Card game, he might have made it to the patch to keep the team, rather than selling it after the season.
