Hey Knight, Are your rosters gonna have the correct minor league lineups and pitching rotations?

Re: MLB '10: The Show Rosters: OS Full Minors V.1

I think SCEA should release The Show later (bugs, stances, rosters, and pitch edits could be adressed already) and then give "somebody" the game a bit early and let him do the minors so that when the game is released shortly there after (week maybe 2) the full minors rosters would already be downloadable. It would look like a dedicated fan actually did it without SCEA breaking any contractual agreements.

I am fully aware the above would probably be illegal and break a contract but it just makes sense and I feel they could find a way around it. Its like Jordan being coded into one of the NBA titles for the genesis or SNES years ago when he wasn't allowed to be.

So when V2 releases what are we gonna have to do to the lineups so they stick? or will that be done already? I ask because I don't want to do spring training.

Re: MLB '10: The Show Rosters: OS Full Minors V.1

I never realized the guys playing this game were over 40 years of age. My g/f gets on my case sometimes and I'm only 27 and this is the only game I play.

27 (28 on June 21) and married for 2 years (on May 31), wife is pretty good about me playing video games, have a ps3 and a wii... play a variety of games fairly frequently... BUT, I do the laundry, the dishes and a lot of cleaning.. in the end.. if I take care of what I gotta do, she doesn't care what I do in my free time =)...

(also, she has her own video game obsessions, Final Fantasy being one)

But anyway, can't wait for these rosters.. been mostly fartin' around on MLB lately with random RTTS (one SS and a SP) and waiting for updated minor league rosters... Thanks again!

Ronnie Prettyman was placed on the DL about 6 or 7 weeks ago. I tried looking for more information on him, but this is all I found:

I forgot that he still plays baseball. We went to the same high school, but he graduated 4 years before me. He was a great basketball player there too.

I'm sure it's been answered before, but why doesn't SCEA put the minors together instead of making outsiders do it on their free time? And how do they not have the real pitch edits in the game? Too me that is on of the more important details to make the game as realistic as possible.

I am in my sixties, yes, yes, and love to play the Show. Being single and retired, I don't need permission from anyone to play this game. Old enough to be a grandfather but young enough to enjoy a virtual baseball game! And I bought a PS3 console and the game... with my pension cheque! Like MasterCard : PRICELESS ! Thanks SCEA and the likes of Knight for making life so enjoyable!

i've thought the same thing before... like man, i wish sony could get knight a copy early so he could get a head start... wouldn't have worked this year though, because the rosters out of the box were all jacked up with the potentials anyway

What part of Wisconsin are you from. I went to Univ. of Wisconsin and it is one of my favorite places in the world. If it wasn't for family I would move back there in a second.

Platteville, WI. Lived in Madison for 3 years and currently I am employed by the State working in Madison.

I'm in my late 50's. Married 30 years. My wife is not a video game player but totally
understands my passion for baseball (Yankees since 1957) and video games. There's
a lot more of us with grey in our hair than people realize and I suspect most of us
are playing sports games.

I play MLB The Show during baseball season and I used to play Madden but haven't
bout it since 08. While playing baseball every day I also usually am working on
another type of game like I just finished Batman Ardham Asylum and will be picking
up Red Dead Redemption this weekend.

MLB is a great game and this is my first year playing with downloaded resters. Didn't
know you could dl them before. Maybe you couldn't on the PS2. But anyway all this
excitement about Knight's rosters have me psyched to play with v2. Playing with
V1 now to get the feel of it. Simmed up to current date then started playing them
myself about a week ago.

As a former programmer and software publesher I really appreciate what SCEA has
developed and REALLY like the group of people in this forum.

Nice job Knight and all,

Well I don't think it's possible to have the right lineups and rotations because players from short season A all the way up to high A will have to be put on the AA roster in the game because that is the lowest minor league team to put them on. For example, Edward Salcedo was signed by the Atlanta Braves and is currently slated to play for the Rookie League Danville Braves. However, he is a top prospect so Knight included him in the roster but put him in AA because that's as low as he can put him. Get what I'm saying?

while we're discussing age.. Just turned 24 on 5/14. Live in a house with the g/f. Full-time job. G/F is not crazy about me "wasting my time with video games" but ya know what.. whatever. Everyone has their interests. Can't wait for v2!! Keep up the good work, Knight!

You can put up to 15 players on the High A team as well. Though you cannot play as the High A teams in-game, they do accrue stats and playing time through simming at this level.

Hey Bob nice to meet somebody close to home. My daughter and I live in Williamsburg, VA. We have been up to your neck of the woods twice already to see the squirrels play. They have done a great job cleaning up The Diamond. Have you been to any games. It is so cool having two Minor league teams close by. We are always going to Tides and Squirrels games.

Sweet. I miss Wisconsin. We used to go up to the Dells all the time and everything was just so green and pleasant. I have never met a nicer group of people or places in all of my journeys.

I haven't been to a squirrels game yet but will make it to quite a few over the
summer. You can't beat it. The Diamond looks nice again, PA system works
again

No better way to spend a summer day than watching professional baseball.
I was worried for a while that Richmond wouldn't replace the Braves any
time soon and was pleasantly surprized to not only have a team back but
one with owners that seem to care.

Lokking forward to seeing the Squirrels both in person and on Knight's
rosters! (how's that for bringing it back on topic )

Uno mas my friends....uno mas.
I just got home from work and can just about guarantee a release of v2 tomorrow night(maybe late)...so it will be ready for the Memorial Day Weekend.

Lineups....husker will be setting these up as close as we can get them.
The AAA rosters are pretty much spot on(at the time I did them...I did create every player on every AAA team...with the DL and such...I might not have been able to keep every player that is on the AAA roster actually on MY AAA roster...but the least used player will be somewhere(most likely....some teams were more than 30 days ago) on AA.
Also keep in mind that AAA lineups are plentiful....so I don't know how close husker will be able to get.
I will let the CPU decide on the minor league lineups for tomorrows release and set the MLB lineups to most used or Opening Day.
40 man rosters will be as close to opening day as possible also.

I'll be working on the Giants tonight a little and that's where we're at. (those pesky Flyin' Squirrels!)
