This is why Madden comes out in August and the console MLB games come out in Feburary or March.

I know its tough to do with only 2 1/2 people on staff, but I would like to see the patch process cut off for OOTP 10 earlier, so that OOTP 11 can be released in March.

Disclaimer: There are still 3 days in March and 8 days until opening day. If some how OOTP 10 is released before opening day, this entire post is irreverent (like most of my posts).
In a perfect world sure, the game would release on or before opening day every year. Development takes time though and unless Markus and company decide to have a public beta each year I just don't see it happening.
