    Don't do what I did...

    OK, I got my rosters as close to real life as possible and even went into season mode controlling all teams to set line-ups and rotations to save as a roster file when done for my franchise I'm about to start. Well, when I played an exhibition game, all the players had no stats, because my roster came from the season that never got started. I thought I would remedy this by simming a season with injuries and CPU trading off so no players moved around and no line-ups or rotations were altered. Then, I would save after the regular season and thus the players would have full stats listed when they came to bat or to the mound in exhibition play. It worked, but here comes the problem...I started a franchise and noticed that Sammy Sosa had 550 career HR before I started. What??? You see, since I loaded the season file as my roster file and used it for franchise, Sosa's 51 HR he hit in that sim season were added to his career totals!
    I can not have this and now I will have to do my rosters over and NOT sim the season before I save them!

    Good post, as I almost did that myself.

    I think you are on to something

    For Franchise:

    1.) Edit Rosters
    2.) Start Season
    3.) Edit Lineups/Rotations
    4.) Save Roster
    5.) Start franchise with saved season rosters

    For Exhibition

    1.) Edit Rosters
    2.) Start Season
    3.) Edit Lineups/Rotations
    4.) Sim Season
    5.) Save Roster
    6.) Use saved rosters for exhibition

    This way career totals will be accurate for Franchise, but you will have stats for Exhibition
