With the MLB 2K series all but confirmed to be dead, Kotaku's Owen Good has posted an article on what MLB 13 The Show must do to keep the fans of baseball gaming happy. It should be interesting, considering a simulation baseball game for the 360 doesn't look very likely.

Wade went off last night, I mean... It was pretty damn impressive really. 17 for 25? Gotta give him some props, even though I hate the Heat.
Pulling for the 6ers tomorrow, but I think Rondo has a big game, making up for the disappointing game 6. I predict he has a triple double, in a very close game.
QOTD: Are you pulling for the 6ers or Celtics? Any bold predictions?

NASCAR The Game: Inside Line is planned to launch Fall 2012 for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, the PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system and the Wii™ system from Nintendo.

2. Shelby Miller, Starting Pitcher, St. Louis Cardinals
In The Show, Miller will strike out quite a few batters per game, while minimizing homers. He ranks second on many pitching prospect lists, and at 21, projects to have a great career.
That said, his real stats thus far in 2012 are a bit mixed. Batters are hitting .291 off of him, but he's got 48 strike outs in 40 innings.
Have you pitched with Miller in The Show? How did he fare?

The New York Daily News reported yesterday that the Steinbrenner's might be looking to get out of the baseball business by selling the Yankees. Of course, it all comes after the Dodgers fetched a record sale price of $2.175 billion in April. So what do you think? Would the Steinbrenner's selling the Yankees to someone with more money than they know what to do with be a good or bad thing for baseball?
