        Sorry guys... I gave this years ASB a shot and it failed for me.

        And you're going to trade in two proven game for a first year title. I'm sure MVP will fail you a lot worse than ASB or HH...just based on the fact that it's a first year title.

            Sorry if this has been asked but there are 300+ posts and I skimmed through and looked, but didn't come across this question. Do pitchers run out of gas in the 6th? and do Relief Pitchers throw 3 pitches and tire all the way down. I am torn between this and MVP want to wait until MVP comes out and see how it is. The pitcher's stamina was my biggest gripe last year.

            Thanks in advance.

                        My post got skipped (from page 5), can somone with the game answer these questions.

                        Can you trade minor leaguers from team tpo team?

                        Are minor leaguers accessible in regular roster manegement(non-franchise mode)? This would help with roster accuracy.

                        Who are some of the more noteble players in the FA pool?
                        Are there alot of FA's.
                        and

                        Any surprising player omissions?
                        Thanks.

                            For those with the game I am curious about what CleveCluby asked about in a previous post.

                            Would it be possible to use this game as a Manage-GM only?
                            Are there features to help with this?
                            Last year they had a One-Pitch type option that gave each batter a pre-determined count and you had to make decisions based on that - Is this feature still in there?

                            I just do not like the game play is ASB but I am very interested in the Franchise and other management type features in the game. After buying the game last year I tried to use it as a Franchise-Manage Only game but it just wasn't designed for that and I had to trade it in.

                                Are most of the throws from the infielders still in the dirt? This is one thing that really got to me last year. It seemed as though about 70% of the time, your infielder would throw the ball in the dirt to any base.

                                Does this still happen or has it been fixed?
