The sarcasm is killing me, but here's my .02 cents.
Eliminate all of the "new videos" and "new stadiums". Basically for 07 all that needs to be taken care of is rosters, uniforms and cyberfaces of whomever needs to have a face. Not a "oh this scrub guy from A ball needs one", I'm talking about a "this guy got promoted to the bigs, and he's here to stay" type of face.
IMO most of the major things we wanted to get around is in the MVP 06 mod, really. Everything else is accessories, nothing but accessories.
Really we're starting to develop mods like 2K does, because we can't make a game engine ourselves we'll ride the SAME game engine and keep tweaking it till the wheels fall off.
To be honest the frontend art, loading screens, basically what is seen before you actually play has been covered by me.
Since you have the request for 40 man rosters, I have dibs on the request for individual player's shoes, batting gloves and other accessories
