A noble spirit embiggens the smallest game

The 16 in '16 idea has me thinking: In what ways would you like OOTP's continuing relationship with MLB/MLBPA to evolve with regards to garnering greater success and awareness for OOTP?

In my own mind, and it is a very small idea really, but I would be grinning ear to ear if I turned on MLB Network in the days leading up to release to see the bottom scrawl hyping OOTP17

This may be a somewhat limited concept to discuss but any Thoughts? Ideas? Carefully worded optimism from those within OOTP?

I'd love to see them run 100 sims and then average them out and project MLB standings on MLB Network/MLB's official twitter.

Tried that last year... it's very hard to get coverage prior to the season because there is so much going on, which in the mind of the MLB.com guys is more important.

Have you tried reaching out to various team blogging sites? Sites like Metsblog, whatever the Yankee/Dodger/whatever team equivalent is?
