SCEA Rosters - No Triple A Players

[dougdude9]

OK, so I got the latest update today... 4-5-10 and saved the rosters for offline use. I know, I know, wait for Knights. I would, but I don't play franchise, so the minors aren't all that important to me.

However, I did notice that when I go to Triple A rosters for any team now after starting a new season with the SCEA rosters, there are no players. I go to team management and manage roster and then hit the trigger to scroll to triple a and it says no players. It this because I'm in spring training?

Thanks,
Doug

If you're only playing a season and not a franchise I believe that you can only control the 40-man roster and not any of the minor league rosters. I may be wrong but I think this is why you cannot access the AAA roster.

Re: SCEA Rosters - No Triple A Players

It might be because you're in spring training, but I'm not sure. I haven't started a franchise yet. I do know this: MLB teams have a very large contingent of players invited to spring training with a chance to make a club. It numbers between 40 and 50. So SCEA may have combined the AAA rosters into the MLB rosters for spring training's sake. Remember all of the split squad games that take place. Every team plays these each year on the same day, using completely different sets of players. You couldn't do this with a 25 man roster.

Yea, it was spring training. I ended spring training and now I get triple A.

However, my Royals are jacked up of course. I can't find Parish... relief pitcher. There was another one too... Mendoza I think that is a relief pitcher I can't find.

Anyway, it was spring training.

Cool,
Thanks for updating us. Thank goodness it wasn't an SCEA screw-up. As for your current rosters, if you had part of your franchise set to auto-rosters, those 2 guys you mentioned could have been injured or sent down to the minors without your knowledge. Remember that often-times the 40 man roster doesn't always carry the most talented players. Also bear in mind that the SCEA player ratings don't necessarily put the major leaguers on the major league roster.

If those players are making their MLB debuts, or returning from an absence of more than a year from MLB, then they'll need to register a game played and be members of MLBPA before they can put them in the game.

Not true, both Ben Sheets and Justin Duchscherer are in the game out of the box.

I might have the time frame wrong, but I know MLBPA membership lapses at some point.

Without a doubt, if it didn't they would be free to make classic rosters with no issues.

I was just pointing out 1 year isn't it because I see it mentioned frequently and it seems to just be a case by case basis...

Be careful what you say dood. As far as I can tell, any thread with "Knight" in the text is being closed. The geeks are out in full force.

The geeks are out in full force.

And they keep complaining and posting about the moderating on a video game forum, it's getting annoying...

It has nothing to do with someone being a "geek". It has to do with people who can't follow the rules of this forum.

I just think people need to chill out. This is a message board. On the internet. People come here for help or to talk about the game. How is someone supposed to feel welcome when they're bombarded with people yelling at them for posting questions? Not everyone roams these boards and stays up on everything. Plus, going through 200 pages of posts to find your answer isn't fun...

On a side note, have you heard of the song "O State Ballaz"? Mitch Canham is one of my buddies...

I'm with you, I find the constant bombardment of people asking questions to be extremely obnoxious and annoying.

But complaining about the moderating and calling them nerds is just as pointless and annoying...

You say some people need to relax but by complaining you are doing the same thing you are complaining about.

I understand what you're saying. I'm simply saying that some people can't follow the rules and the requests of the moderators.

That's awesome. Oh, yeah, I've heard that and "Still Ballin'". Mitch has some rapping skill. I actually became a fan of Oregon State baseball because I became a huge fan of Mitch Canham. Mitch is easily one of my all-time favorite players for a number of different reasons. If you can ever get the hook up on some of his game used equipment, let me know. haha I collect game used memorabilia and all I have of his is a game used bat. It's the only Mitch Canham item I've ever saw anywhere.
