How do you VIEW Player Ratings and Attributes??

[Lisa_Bonami]

In MLB 2K8, you could push down on the left or right thumbstick in the Lineup cards Pop up Window on a player to view a player's profile and see all their ratings (Fielding, Range, Batting, Pitching, etc).

In the MLB2K9 demo, when I bring up the lineup card, I cant for the life of me figure out how to see a player's RATINGS so I can make the appropriate substitution decisions.

How is this accomplished?

Push left or right on the controller's d-pad.

It's stupid you can't see what the pitcher's pitch count is. The Triple Play series had this so why can't 2k?

Wait. Can't you just view the pitch count from the expanded pitch selection menu? I'm 99% sure you can. It's on the top, right next to the composure meter.

No it's not. See for yourself.

No, he's talking about when you are pitching, it shows your pitch count at top of the expanded pitch selection overlay when you press LB. It shows the number of balls and strikes you've thrown as well.

I'm not sure if you can view the opposing pitcher's pitch count though. Probably can in the full version since you could in 2K9, 2K7, etc.

guys, im not talking about pitch count at all....Im talking about being able to view player ratings and attributes in the game so you can make assessments and adjustments as a coach. For example, Lets say I want to put in a pinch runner, let me bring up the in game lineup card and click on a player's profile to see his speed rating. Or if I want to make a defensive adjustment, who should I put out in Lef Field...What's the LF's range, speed, glove...etc

Stuff like that. Last year, when you brought up the lineup card on screen, you could click any player to view their attributes and ratings. I cant figure out how to view this info for MLB 2K9

Good question. I have had the same problem finding that information in the demo. I can find out more about an opposing batter's info then I can about my own players. I am going to hope this is just a demo issue.
