The excitement is too much, downloading now, will let you know how i go, just to let you know i will be doing a fantasy draft franchise with these as that is my favorite game mode...

[Kritter77]

Re: 1988-2011 All Star Rosters FINAL PRODUCT!!!

SLIGHT ERROR ALERT!!!

Hey guys, there is a slight error here that may complicate your seasons, so heads up. I meant these to be 25 man rosters ONLY for season use, but I left some teams with some guys on their 40 man rosters, make sure you take them off before you start your seasons, or they will mess things up for you...

Make sure you take a look, go to the 40 man roster part and then sort by league, that will make things easier...

ENJOY!!!

[Kritter77]

Re: 1988-2011 All Star Rosters FINAL PRODUCT!!!

HERE IS THE BEST WAY TO USE THESE ROSTERS

START A SEASON, CHOOSE ALL 30 TEAMS, AND TURN OFF INJURIES, BOTTOM LINE, YOU HAVE A 25 MAN TEAM HERE, AND YOU ONLY WANT 25 MEN TO GET THE FULL EFFECT, ADDING PLAYERS WILL MESS IT UP, YOU DON'T WANT INJURIES...

FROM THERE, GO TO YOUR TEAM'S PAGE, AND SIMULATE ANY GAMES NOT INCLUDING YOUR TEAM...

ENJOY!!!

Seattle Mariners (R. Johnson 0-0) @ Oakland A's (D. Stewart 0-0)

Re: 1988-2011 All Star Rosters FINAL PRODUCT!!!

A's win opener vs Mariners in Oakland 8-2 in power shower!!!

MARINERS - 2R 5H 0E
A'S - 8R 11H 0E

WP- Dave Stewart - CG 7K's 2ER (1-0)
LP- Randy Johnson - 5IP 6ER 8K'S (0-1)

HR
SEA- Jay Buhner (2)
OAK- Mark Ellis, Miguel Tejada, Jose Canseco, Dave Henderson,
Nick Swisher (PH)

RBI
SEA- Jay Buhner - 2
OAK - Mark Ellis -3
Miguel Tejada -2
Jose Canseco - 1
Dave Henderson - 1
Nick Swisher - 1

HUGE power shower for the A's, all 8 runs coming on the longball, and all the M's could muster off A's ace Dave Stewart was 2 Jay Buhner HR's, one to open the scoring, and one in the 9th once things were basically decided. The A's took the lead on Mark Ellis' 3 run HR in the 2nd. Back to back HR's by Miguel Tejada and Jose Canseco added 3 more runs in the 5th, and Dave Henderson and pinch-hitter Nick Swisher hit HR's in the 6th and 8th respectively to close out the scoring...

Player of the game: Dave Stewart

GAME 2 pits M's starter "King" Felix Hernandez (0-0) against A's starter Tim Hudson (0-0)

Do these rosters have the stat glitch where some players have random career stats?

[MC2]

Re: 1988-2011 All Star Rosters FINAL PRODUCT!!!

I am not trying to downgrade this roster at all here, because it is VERY well made, but I just found it odd, why didn't you include Josh Beckett on the Marlins?

[Kritter77]

Re: 1988-2011 All Star Rosters FINAL PRODUCT!!!

I'm pretty sure he is on there...

Yup, I checked, he is there, #21, #2 SP on the team behind AJ Burnett

A number of players on this roster appear on multiple teams, Beckett is on the Marlins AND the Red Sox, Randy Johnson is on the Mariners and the D'Backs, etc. It would have taken WAYYYYY too long to figure out who should be on what team without using multiples, and with the CAP glitch making it easy to make multiples of the same player, and the ability to make one guy and export/import him to another team making it even easier, this was the obvious way to go.

And as for the career stats, some guys are saved over their real life player, so they would still have their stats...

TIM HUDSON DIDN'T HAVE HIS BEST STUFF OVER 5 IP AND YET ONLY YIELDED A 3 RUN HR TO KEN GRIFFEY JR.
