League evolution is never awesome.

Finally bought it after years of considering. really cool game. love all the old teams. that's what i'm playing out right now - pennant races from the past.

The game even got better when i learned about the mod community. Now I've downloaded all the real ballparks from history plus all the real player faces from history.

Just amazing. Hope next year they at least get the in play game graphics up to say PS2 level. It know graphics isn't their selling point but if they did a decent upgrade it would attract more casual sports gamers.

I need to know more about this...

Also side question--does OOTP have the carry over save feature? I can't remember and don't want to start something now if I can't continue it with the new game around the corner..

Yes you can import a saved franchise forward to the next version.

I’m new to the game and loving it. Had a question that is probably basic to experienced users. When I make a trade or pick up someone from waivers I always have a difficult time finding where the players that I acquired are. It takes me a while but I am guessing there is an easier way to locate them. Basically when I get a player via trade or through waivers and I want them on my mlb roster i can’t find them. Can anyone give me some input. Thanks!

It's been awhile since you asked, so hopefully you've figured it out by now. If not though, the quickest way is by doing the steps below:

1. Click on your team drop down menu
2. Click on Rosters & Transactions (you should see your MLB and minor league team rosters in this screen)
3. Click on the drop down menu in one of those boxes, and click on the "Players Designated for Assignment" option from the list, and that will show all of the players you've recently acquired.

Hope that helps, pretty much all of your roster moves are made in that screen.
3.

Anyone know when you update live stats does it only update MLB stats or every player in the game?

Beta release is out for those who preordered.

I know that this has been discussed before, but has anyone come up with any new strategies for keeping your minor league system from getting overloaded with players? In the past I have either done age limits (like no one older than 24 in low A) or set hard roster limits like 25 per league. Personally I prefer the ladder, but it's annoying to go through each individual minor league and change that setting.
