So it's safe to assume that these current created rosters are set to play a good game. I was planning on picking up MLB 10 when the rosters were mostly completed. Should I pick it up now or wait for another version?

I am doing some more testing and figured I'd report it. Yovani Gallardo averages 110.38 pitches per start. In the game, his energy bar empties at 105.

This isn't necessarily that bad. But should he have no energy left at the end of every start? Will he recover in time for the next start? I am doing these in exhibition mode so I don't know.

I feel like a guy who averages 110 pitches should not be depleted entirely of energy until about 120 or 125 pitches.

I got R.A.

What would you suggest jason castro blocking should be third.

Hey, it's a multi year average!

anyway, jeter got back to .300 like a 1.5 weeks ago, after being around .280 for like 2 weeks off of .300 at the start of the season, now he's back down the .280ish...

well, not sure how much it helps when you control his at bat though in this game... it's so subjective, but if he gets lowered, cano needs to be much higher. Arod is pretty darn clutch w/ RISP this yr too i think... so has cervelli been. in otherwords whenever the team leader in clutch rating needs to fall in line properly w/ everyone else, and it should be across teams in the AL as well, even MLB. Same goes for the other semi/quasi rating, stamina.

You can go 68 if you want too. Leave Cabrera as he is. He'll get changed when you guys do the full overhaul

Durability is the recovery rating not stamina

Oh okay that's right then. He must have meant 4sfb or 2sfb

I didn't play with V3, so I'm making the jump from V2 to V4. My first impression when looking over the rosters is that I love the hitting ratings. My second impression was holy crap, the pitchers pitches have really been changed around. I don't think anyone throws a 4-seam FB anymore. Barry Zito now has 2 curve balls. The pitch selection seems kind of nuts to me. No doubt whoever did them did their research though, its just radically different than what I'm used to.

shouldnt he have a 4SFB or 2SFB?
I know he throws sinkers with splitters here and there, but does he really throw slurves or CBs?

re: MLB '10 The Show Rosters: OS Full Minors v4 (Opening Day Only)

bondsfan, if you played last yr w/ these edited rosters it sounds like you didnt... it does change radically... as of v3 for this yr, all the pitch edits set for real life pitch movement, so the straight 4seamer is pretty much nonexistent in real life mlb, so it's near extinct as of v3, and carryover into v4 of course.

Nope. Pelfrey uses almost exclusively a sinker and he has a slider/curve hybrid pitch hence the slurve.

Yeah it's supposed to be a massive change but you'll also notice a difference in gameplay as with the edits you will see that it's harder to control pitches and at the same time slightly easier to get ks and is also harder to hit.

re: MLB '10 The Show Rosters: OS Full Minors v4 (Opening Day Only)

Yep, this is my first year with a PS3, so first year with the rosters.

The odd thing is, if noone in the MLB actually throws a 4seam FB, why the heck to SCEA give that pitch as the primary pitch to every single pitcher in the game? I just don't understand why the don't include accurate pitches in the official rosters.

If v4.1 is just fixing stamina, do we really need it? Can we just up the starter stamina slider?

Played a couple of games with the roster set and really enjoyed it. Used Seattle against San Diego and won 6-4 in 10 innings. Struck out 11 times, but did manage 12 hits, all but one (a double) were singles. King Felix was solid, going 7 innings (110 pitches) and struck out 8 and allowed 3 runs.

Took these into Franchise, using the Rockies and won 9-1 in the opener against the Brewers. Milwaukee committed 3 errors, which really hurt them. Cargo went 3-for-3 with a double and triple, Tulo hit a nice opposite-field double and I finished with 10 hits and 8 strikeouts. Ubaldo was solid, went 7.2 innings (105 pitches), walked 3, struck out 6, allowed 4 hits and 1 run.

Definitely tougher to hit, but I like the challenge and pitching is a blast with the pitch edits.

Great work everyone!

The only thing I can see to possibly wait for is a "franchise" file where somebody
else fixes the rosters at end of Spring Training. I've played a number of
exhibition games with these new rosters and they are fantastic! The game
has been bumped up a notch in all aspects. It is harder but let's call it
more challenging.

So let me see if I have this right.

1. Start franchise with 30 team control
2. Sim to end of spring training
3. Go through all 30 teams fixing their 40 man rosters/lineups
4. Go to regular season and save. or do I save it at end of ST before going
regular season.

or...

Just play around until someone else does it for me.

Great job to all involved!

Reading the v3 thread was almost as much
fun as playing the game.

Thanks again,

bob
