Bacon, you ever made a player of yourself?

I have! I'll usually run one RTTS a year with my own name for the player but there isn't a CAP of me currently on a roster.

Re: Bacon's Fictional Roster

Newest version doesn’t happen to be on MLB 19 roster vault?

Been using your rosters and absolutely love them. Got a fantasy draft Angel franchise going and just lost a huge game 5 to KC. Made a bunch of moves to make a push, didn’t work out like I hoped.

Love the team but they are getting old and I gutted the farm. Might be time to start over.

It is not. I haven't been updating anything on MLB19.

Not sure yet. We'll see after they announce more details about future features.

My first thought is that I'm done though but I'll wait to make any decision until I hear more about 21.

If you decide to carry on, I would love to help. I have experience with fictional rosters from yonder years.

Re: Bacon's Fictional Roster

They got scared that your rosters were better than the real ones.

Re: Bacon's Fictional Roster

These rosters are so good it’s the only way I can play now. If we can’t use in 21 I won’t be buying it.

Not gonna say anything about manually moving it over just yet but I will let you know. I'd love help if I went that route.

Haha something like that

Man, I cannot tell you how upset I am about it as well.

In this boat too. I don't think I even played a game with the actual rosters this year. Just can't see myself going back. This is the worst.

Re: Bacon's Fictional Roster

Man just seeing this news and it really hurts. These rosters are the only thing that has kept me going with the show the last couple years. And being able to create teams last year was amazing to go along with the fictional rosters. But I thought last years gameplay was the buggiest and worst I've ever seen from the show. Add that to the fact that I feel there have been minimal changes to the game over the last 4 or 5 years, these rosters have been the only reason I have been buying the game. They are going to have to blow me away with improvements to franchise mode for me to even consider buying it. Even then, I'm not sure I will be able to bring myself to do it. And if the last 5 years is any indication, they aren't going to do anything with franchise that will be noteworthy. I'm so over this studio. Madden and The Show desperately need competition in the gaming industry. I quit buying Maddens years and years ago and it looks like it's time to add The Show to that list. Just awful news.

Yeah man, it's really upsetting but hopefully something is better in store so we can keep going.

I don't think they're on a path as destructive as Madden's downfall but this is something the news they've provided so far still seems concerning. We will see.

Baseball is still Better!

Re: Bacon's Fictional Roster

I have one problem with Bacon’s Roster......I can’t figure out which team to use!

I just upgraded to PS4 recently & MLB the Show 19. (I know, late to the game after years of PS3 MLB the show 16). I started with my hometown Cincinnati Reds. I got about 20 games & decided to Buy the Show 20 after reading so many good reviews. Now, I’m deciding who to run with again.....

Reds? (Familiar with most of them from ‘19)
Cubs? (Not a ton there but love Reggie Kellogg)
Brewers? (McCoy looks like a stud & love the Unis)
Marlins? (That Defense!)
White Sox? (Top of Rotation Starters)
Braves? (Really leaning towards this team)
A’s? (Mayfield!)
Red Sox (Some Power Bats & Fenway)

On & On.....

I literally stare at the ‘Choose team’ screen & can’t decide. Great Roster.....if I ever get around to playing a game

Go to wheelofnames.com and type in each team name and spin the wheel, whoever it lands on is your team you play as. That’s a fair way to pick.
