Share what? I found this http://forums.qj.net/ps3-cheats-save...-tutorial.html but I don't know if it will work. I'm not too familair with the file system on the PS3 system yet. I'm just wanting to get these rosters for my son on PS2 if possible.

I meant share your PS3 with your son! I was being glib.

And I don't think you'll be able to convert these to PS2, no matter what you do. The save files are too different.

Ok its late , so no offense meant. Knight and these guys are the roster makers, if you dont agree with a rating... change it yourself....you dont see a player that no one will ever see in a major league game except maybe if is at the concession stand...you add him. Its one thing to have input and there it is another to be ungrateful. I dont mean it to the guys that just honestly love these rosters, and i dont mean to be rude, just sayin.

What also needs to be looked at farm power/contact for older guys. Frankly, i think almost everyone on AAA is 10 low but as you can see below its alot of lower 30 power for guys hitting 15-30 homers in AAA. Most of these are not young superstars that need lower ratings for progression reasons. These are the next level of hitters below the pros.

Most the SCEA guys are very low as well but i assume that because SCEA tends to go straight pro stats. You could do the same thing for average too.

Here are the International leaders last year for homers.

Shelly Duncan- SCEA guy- 30 homers
Andy Tracy 32-32 for power- 26 homers in real life
Chris Richard- SCEA guy but listed 25-25 for power- 24 homers
Mike Hessman- didn't see on roster but should be Met
Kevin Barker- didn't see on roster- Mexican league
Justin Huber- 31-33 power- 22 homers
Michael Restovich- didn't see on rosters but would be Dodger
Juan Miranda- SCEA guy who again had 25-25 power
Seth Bynum- 45-43 power- 19 homers
Marte and LaPorta- SCEA guys
Brad Elred- didn't see on roster- should be on Rockies- 17 homers
Josh Kroeger- 38-33 power- 17 homers
Wes Bankston- 34-34 power -17 homers
Wilkin Ramierez- SCEA guy- 17 homers

Pac Coast
Mitch Jones- SCEA guy- 35 homers
Sean Rodriquez- SCEA guy- 29 homers
Allen Craig- 47-53 power- 26 homers- this is ok i suppose
Terry Evans- 27-27 power- 26 homers- but SCEA guy
Bryan LaHair- 35-39 power- 26 homers
Randy Ruiz- SCEA guy- 25 homers- ironically he is way high
Matt Carson- 25-25 power- 25 homers
Katin and Kohansky- 30's for power- 24 homers- i had change these already on my file
Cory Aldridge- 33-29 for power- 22 homers
Brandon Wood- SCEA guy
John Bowker- SCEA guy
Prentice Redman- didn't see on roster- should be on LA
JP Arencibia- 32-36 power- 21 homers
Scott Thorman- 37-33 power- 20 homers

I hope this helps or at least show why i believe these types should be raised. I used minorleaguebaseball.com to find this information.

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

That's a really good list dkrause, I agree ... not a lot of prospects on that list. More swing and miss hitters that maybe don't have great contact or plate discipline ratings, but they can hit it a long way when they get a hold of one.

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

Yeah the problem is, the Pacific Coast League numbers are always bloated, its always been that way, im sure Ksig will tell you that. If you bring up the power numbers up then you make them higher rated and more likely to be called up. Brade Eldred in 2004 in the Pirates system .301 with 38 home runs and 137 RBI, when he played with the Pirates major league team >221 with 12hr's and 77k's. Shelly Duncan is a fringe Major League player.I have yet to see any stats over the whole season that shows in minor league games there is no power. 1 game here and there is not enough of a sample size.

There is a difference between bloated totals due to league and having the power rating of Cesar Izturis. I am not asking to make Eldred or Duncan 85 power but i don't see how rating these guys lower 30s is right either. They are not major league quality hitters but that doesn't mean they don't have major league power.

As for you not seeing stats- tons of people posted not seeing power. As for quoting Ksig- he is the guy who was the most vocal on the farm power outage and i sure he'll be the first one to mention that you can have MLB power and not be a MLB player.

BTW- Eldred and Duncan were international league last year- ie the non bloated league

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

Yeah i see what you are saying but every one of the players you mentioned are fringe Major league players at best I am not quoting anybody, im just telling you, you cannot go by HR numbers in the Pacific Coast League where every ballpark in the league is like Coors Field. I have seen every post and nobody has played a whole season or even half a season of minor league games and given stats. I agree Brad Eldred has immense power, i have seen it up close, but if you bring up the power numbers they are more likely to get called up and there is no way to offset that except to lower their ratings. Brad Eldred is not a major league player, I mean if the Pirates let you go, that says something. All im saying is with minor league players, if you or Ksig want to boost them go ahead, but i dont want it on the stock rosters where it effects franchises because people want guys that will never see the majors have higher power ratings so that they can hit 30 hr in the minors. Easy on Cesar Izturis he almost hit 5 hr's one year lol. You make good points D but im just saying it would mess up franchises if the ratings were brought up for the Mitch Jones's of the world.

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

I really hate to ask this since its usually posted somewhere, but I can't seem to find it. I am new to this game franchise and can't figure out how to load the roster. I currently have it loaded on a USB stick. Is there another way I should be doing this?

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

If this shouldn't be posted, I'll delete it:

Knight's rosters are always amazing and there is rarely any negative feedback from the years he's been making them...it's what brought me to OS in the first place; having said that, given the amount time Knight has been devouting to his family (and rightfully so...see my Avi ) I don't believe a lot of this is his work.

Ksig has made vocal pleas for more power and he's asked the community for help in determining what ratings affect performance (i.e. higher batting average, more HRs, etc.) which I respect given he wants to make improvements on both his skills and the roster. So...

Spoiler

...that leaves only one more person.

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

Honestly fellas I can rake in this game. I got a meatball or three yesterday and timed them superbly and only managed to hit the wall. Two double with Michael Taylor, a triple off the wall with Chris Carter and a mashed double off the base of the wall with Yonder. Still no jacks...I am not crazy, but I would like to see some power.

On another note, the Futures game is all jacked up. There was a Thomas Neal on team USA and a Thomas Neal on World, but there is only one Thomas Neal in the game, no duplicate. Furthermore, Nick Noonan as well as several other USA born players were on the World team. Just a side note.

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

I can respect that view but my point is this is MLB the Show..not MILB the SHOW. I mean are we playing Major league baseball franchises or are you playing Trenton Thunder franchises ? I mean all i look from my minor leaguers are they making progress and are they ready to be brought up. Im not trying to win the minor league HR championship. See once again you can pump up (example Brad Eldred's power to 60 or higher) but then you change his overall rating and you change his progresion curve. So he is more likely to get called up. I mean he hit 35 homers and 100 RBIS in the white sox AAA and the sox let him go ? He has hit 160 minor league home runs and he cant make it to the majors. What im saying is there is no conversion factor from minors to majors, so the only way to keep guys like Eldred down in the minors where they belong is to lower their ratings. I agree with you guys, i wish there was a way to do both, but right now there isnt.
