What the Offseason Moves Mean for Baseball Gamers

[ronnyballgame]

Ratings wise, yeah those teams are going to get better overall from where they are on a videogame format, which is what I believe the author is trying to explain, and not their real life counterparts. Adding K Rod and Putz to a videogame roster(both have to be mid 90's) is a little scary being a Phillies fan, but our bullpen is solid also. I am very excited to play next years game with all these rosters moves, and the ones that are going to come.

I'm playing a sad song on a really small violin for you buddy.

What it means now is, the leagues run on here better take advantage of the fantasy drafts put in '09. Or there is going to be lopsided blowouts.

It means that over 90% of the games I play online against random people will be against the Yank's with CC at the mound.

...which is why I don't play online. Any game. Ever. I choose not to expose myself to the idiocy.

Gotta play with the right people. I can tell you that a lot of the guys here play straight up and the games are highly competitive.

It seemed like I faced Santana 90% of the time last year when the game first came out and I was usually Royals. After a while people started using different teams so it's all good.

Madden is worse. You almost always play the Patriots/Cowboys

I have had a lot of fun with many guys in these forums. You weed out the riffraff and you can end up with a great core of players.

Yeah, but, but you are one of those, who always picks the Yanks.

Not so much, actually I rarely pick them for online leagues. I tend to experiment with a lot of teams.

[JonahFalcon]

The Yanks will never win? Must have stolen all 26 World Series titles and 37 AL Pennants.

I take it that MLB 09 will have the new mets & yankees stadiums and the World Baseball Classic.Are there any teams changing uniforms?

I would love to see every spring training ballpark as well.

Unfortunately I don't own a PS3 so the Show isn't an option for me, but for this years iteration of MLB 2K9 I'll probably run w/ a small market team after many years of playing as my Phillies.

I'm going to try a TB Rays approach to putting a team together, and getting them to October.
