Last year for my own personal set it took me two months to input all of my own ratings, but that included me going to school and work as well as tinkering around with MiLB ratings, pitch edits, and editing my formulas multiple times.

If someone provided me with formula's, I could get it done.

Its all personal preference, I feel like the game is incomplete without the edits, I'm sure others will agree with me in saying that its not SCEA's strong suit, there's a lot of head-scratchers.

I'm sure whoever takes up v4 would finish it much faster than I would, I get sidetracked easily and use really complicated formulas.

Edit:

Scott - I use Bahnzo's roster tool; you can manually enter stats in the minor league section. I take an unweighted three year average from fangraphs, input the splits in the tool, then weight the results 2 to 1 to what SCEA already has for ratings. For Pitchers its much easier since you can download three year totals from fangraphs into excel, input those in the tool and weight the results with SCEA's ratings.
For defense, Fangraphs has fan ratings from Tom Tango's website, filtered to remove bias. Same thing, 2-1 weighted average with SCEA's ratings. There's more stuff I haven't talked about, I can pm you the details.

i completely agree that the game would feel a lil incomplete but it's not make-or-break to me...i would gladly offer to help but i wouldn't know where to start

I'm new to PS3 and the The Show.

Can someone tell me how to download and get the rosters to my game?

Also, is this the most current complete set? Will it have changes to make the Major League rosters accurate as well. (for example, Chris Parmalee should be starting for the Twins)

The most accurate set will be out on Wednesday, most likely.

So since this is the spring training version of the roster, will there be an Opening Day roster as well with all the correct lineups and rotations?
