I think your 2nd guess (b) is the most likely.
Laundry day was a shift from the norm (community involvement) and the hamster pack was a shift from the norm. Maybe whatever's coming this next quarter is also a shift. If so it would explain the lack of a teaser.
Trouble is though, next quarter is April - June, yet the EA play thing isn't happening 'til June.
Yeah, EA Play is only 2-3 weeks before the end of the quarter. Wouldn't make sense to announce then unless it's just an SP or GP that doesn't need much publicity time.
Maybe because April is the beginning of the new fiscal year, they're really not sure what's going to be ready for the next quarter. Maybe instead of paid DLC there'll be a series of major bug fixes instead, focusing more on repairing what's in game rather than adding in more stuff just yet. Maybe some sort of major feature that gets patched in, like we got the Gender patch and toddlers, but they're not sure if it'll be ready this quarter or closer to Q2. As we have the changeover in Community Managers and how they interface with Marketing, we might see a change in how packs are publicized to the Community (forums, Facebook, Twitter, etc.) as opposed to the general public.
