I've had a few requests for rosters/ratings for MLB 2K9 so here we go. Below, you'll find the top ten players at each position in the game based on overall rating, plus the top twenty pitchers in the game. I've also included some in-game screenshots from the game for each of the top players at each position.
In other news, we've received the go-ahead from 2K to post more screens, so if you have things you want to see, let me know in the comments below and I'll do my best to grab them. No promises on honoring every request, however. Finally, I plan on putting up some video on Friday, so stay tuned for that.
