    Bulk I hear what your saying. I love your sliders but I cant look past it. Werth batting 8th. The yankees having a minor leaguer in there clean up hole. Just not that much fun.

      Re: HUGE PROBLEM WITH LINEUPS AFTER SPRING TRAINING!!!

      I just spent a couple of hours doing it myself, it doesn't take that long. A couple of hours tops. I just made sure the major league rosters are set and didn't worry about the minor league lineups other than my own.

      If you are using Knight's set you probably want a realistic experience so why not take the extra time to do the work yourself? It'll only take a couple of hours, you've been waiting a month for these rosters, what's another couple of hours?

        If you haven't already, SAVE your franchise in a separate file at the start of the regular season. That way if you ever need to start your franchise over, you won't need to mess with the rosters again.

        Oh and you could also post the file to OS

          Well looking through them (if you dont adjust them yourself) it is more of a problem than i thought, Jason Heyward leading off for the Braves one of quite a few alarming ones ive caught.

          Right, stuff it, i do need some semblance of realism lol, ill do the 30 team control, set the rosters myself, sim the other games on the day i play to get the out of town scoreboards working and fire my franny up once and for all either late tonight or tomorrow.

          Right, to work on the rosters with the wonderful MLB Depth Chart site!

            I've got 4 more teams to do and then I need to go through the pitching rotations and fix them and then I'll be done.

            If I can I'll upload them to sportsconnect. Can you do it though once you've gone into franchise mode? I'm not sure you can. I will if it lets me though.

            Some of the lineups might not be 100% accurate but they look pretty good to me.

              You need to upload a Franchise save, not a roster.

              Anyhow ill do them myself (OCD when it comes to this sort of thing lol), hope youre all finished soon BF.

                I sat down and did this last night after downloading the rosters. Just go to espn.com or any other sports site and go through opening day rosters. It took all but about an hour to get all the people where they should be with the correct lineups. I did it after springtraining before game one. I have cpu roster control on, but control all 30 teams only having my team with a profile. The lineups have saved and seem to be doing ok after a few games.

                    Guys.....what the CPU is looking for.(in priority)
                    1. the #3 spot...best overall contact+power combined(for each handedness)
                    (the rest of these are what's left on the team...obviously)
                    2. the #2 spot....best overall contact
                    3. the #1 spot.....best speed(and at a certain point contact will come into play)
                    4. the #4 spot....the best power hitter
                    5. the #5 spot....the best power hitter
                    6. the #6 spot...best overall contact+power
                    ....
                    If the numbers are close....#2 and #3 might switch priorities....

                    Hope this helps...

                      Here's a question...

                      Since it's an AI situation causing the "problem" does that mean when SOny releases their rosters on Monday then the same problems will occur? I don't see how they couldn't.

                          You're exactly right. The fact that you download perfect rosters only to have the CPU change them is completely FUBAR. No other way to put it.

                            http://docs.google.com/fileview?id=0...NzlmMmUx&hl=en (click download top left), will take around an hour but its the only way to get the correct lineups to stick sadly.

                            Im away to start now.
