About This File
NOTE: THIS IS AN MLB ONLY ROSTER!
This is more reflective of an Opening Day roster set as compared to last year. There are a few exceptions as some teams are only indicating 4 starters and the MVP game demands 5 (with the Giants being the most difficult).
A good number of relievers especially had to be created. For those debuting in the MLB this year, I had to rely on scouting reports which are not always the greatest.
Other major change since the last tweaks include pitchers who either do not feature a 4 seam fastball or throw one at all had the control for that pitch pushed down to 10.
Line-ups are set per the RosterResource site. Of course guesses about DH for NL teams and no DH lineups for AL teams had to be made.
If you find any mistakes (batting stances, pitching styles, jersey numbers, etc.), please PM me and I'll include the fixes, if warranted, in the next update, or if there are enough I'll upload another version.
Manager cyberface nos. may not be complete/correct, especially for Tampa Bay.
Since "Placeholder" players (last name) were put in to fill the empty slots, these rosters can be used with injuries and suspensions set to "ON" without crashing. Most every team has 24-25 players.
If you want to use these rosters to create another version or a roster incorporating MiLB, just ask (as someone already has in reference to a standard only roster). If you are thinking of making a MiLB roster set, you can alter the existing "Placeholder" players.
INSTALLATION: Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\EA SPORTS\MVP 2005 (or whatever you named it)\data\database subfolder. DELETE the existing 19 .dat files. Unzip this roster file to that location. DO NOT SIMPLY OVERWRITE!

What's New in Version 1.5.0 See changelog
Released
1.5
- LAAngels changes only
- Ohtani created to DH as well (pitching, batting stance, attributes and speed adjusted)
- Pitching rotation updated (Tropeano pitching attributes adjusted)
- Cam Bedrosian sent down to make room for 2nd Ohtani
**Recommended to not use Ohtani as a starter and DH simultaneously. Computer will most likely not bring him in as a fielder but may bring him in as a PH if not starting.
1.4
- Player ID's for new created players added in.
- Ohtani's cyberface number added.
- Collin McHugh's pitching attributes updated
- Several moves up to 4/3 completed
- Note: this will be the last update until the AS break.
1.3
- 2 pitchers had pitch control set to the default "36"; corrected.
- Several pitchers with overall excessively high control numbers brought into order.
1.2
- FA further reduced to 120. Gameplay tested and working. Injuries, suspensions ON should still be fine to use in-season.
- Keep in mind not all prospects have been created. If the player hasn't seen MLB level of experience, he's possibly not in these rosters.
