Ya there is an added step if you want to edit then add players to the roster update. So in that sense it's more tedious. However, there are more guys probably on the right teams with the update, so you save yourself some work on that end. So I guess it's probably all relative.

yeah, those guys are on new teams, BUT, they have on their OLD teams jerseys/hats/helmets during the games. looks dumb lol. Derek Lee playing the field for the Bucs in his O's jersey and hat. ha

really wish like im sure i stated 100x's in here before that we could somehow share updated rosters.

The issue is that the game doesn't have a "roster" file to share like most other sports games.

It just has a single "save" file that encompasses everything in the game.

Could someone try uploading a copy of their saved file? I would like to see if it is possible to share between multiple people.

Is there anyway to set the cpu controlled teams lineup in this version? I forgot..lol. I haven't played season mode in awhile. I couldn't remember if there was a trick to it or something. I think maybe the only way to set the cpus lineup when you play them?

edit: its under the set roles within created team screen.

Just confirmed this tonight:

The "invite to game" trick does not work for purchasing the Bobblehead Battle DLC. My guess is that it won't work for any other Bobblehead related content, either.

So if there's any Bobblehead DLC you don't have at this point, there's no way to purchase it unless you want to import the PS3 version that has everything included on one disc.

Man these rosters are really really rough updating. Its taking me almost an hour per team. I only have 3 teams done, haven't had alot of time to do many. Don;t know if I will keep doing it. Gotta give those roster makers out there alot of credit, very time consuming and tedious.

yea it really is rough, I have been trying to edit rosters using the custom teams and edited players and I am only a few teams in as well. It also doesn't help that I have no system to my ratings...

Ya I think the custom team, old school arrange mode, does save you a little bit of time from having to rename a player on an original roster, if he is on another team, just move him over to the created team. Renaming and editing names of players not in the game anymore, to new players, on that 360 controller, (or maybe its just mine) just doesn't seem to move to quick on the on screen keypad. I tried a usb keyboard but the game didn't read it, figured that would happen.

For re-rating players system I'm trying to just find a MLB player with similar attributes and go from there. For example, I figure the highest rated power hitters are Pujols, Hamilton, Howard, Fielder, and I use their power ratings as the bar, and just come down from there for players. I try to use a similar system to other attributes. I know it's nowhere near a good system but I'm just going with that. I'm trying not to get to technical to save time, not doing crazy edits, just very basic ones. And it's still takes awhile.

If you like to do a lot of roster editing, the Xbox chat pad is a worthy investment.

You can get one for about $10 online:

So the editing mode doesn't have the plain edit player mode like MLB Power Pros had? That makes editing kinda hard then to me, making a different arrange team just to edit a player seems like too much work.

No it has it, but really it's to each its own.

Example: Josh Reddick is on the Red Sox. You can edit him to let's say Nava and edit all the attirbutes too Nava's. Then go to the A's and edit a player no longer on As to Josh Reddick.

OR

in arrange mode just Move Reddick to the A's, and edit some random guy on A's not on As anymore to Nava. Then just swap them. This way your really only editing one player. So I guess you save yourself one edit. If you do this in the long haul you will save yourself a bunch of edits, because players and their attributes are in the game, just on another team. Does require some thinking and strategy though.

Nice, will it work with this game though? Game seems really bare bones, don't know what kind of other things it would support in game. How is that keypad, quick to use?

Re: MLB Bobblehead Pros Available Now, Post Your Impressions Here (XBLA)

Ahhhh, tried another usb keyboard and that one worked ! Going to see if it makes it any faster for me. I'm guessing that chatpad would work too now.
