steroid Posted May 29, 2005 Share Posted May 29, 2005 Hey cybernetic, Im starting from scratch, just created myself as a prodigy 2nd baseman with vizquel type skills. I dont think its a bad idea to put yourself in IMO I created myself using the data files and renaming a minor leaguer to my name in all the files so it shows up in the game nicely. Since coco cant make my face, tim hudsons face is the closest to mine in the game, so I use it with pujols stance. It actually looks like me. Now to get back to starting a dynasty. Was going to be the reds, but choosing something else. Not sure which yet, but we can keep in touch with updates if you want. Sounds like you have your hands full with those jays :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cybernetic Posted May 29, 2005 Author Share Posted May 29, 2005 well from the way it seems my pitching is up-to-par right now and my hitting is close so I should be turning the season around if I bring in another power bat and/or a speedy high contact guy.. another SP wouldn't hurt either although Gaudin did very well in his 1st start with the Jays.. I may be looking for a corner OF bat as well perhaps Podsednik is an option Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cybernetic Posted May 29, 2005 Author Share Posted May 29, 2005 I'm looking at Jason Bay as an option as well but I don't think the Pirates will be parting with him anytime soon as he is a young power bat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cybernetic Posted May 30, 2005 Author Share Posted May 30, 2005 I've swung a deal to get LF Scott Podsednik from the White Sox.. in exchange they got OF Reed Johnson who was struggling and LF/1B John-Ford Griffin who has good AAA numbers but has no MLB experience at age 29.. he is also a terrible fielder so it was not much of a loss to get a good lead off hitter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mooseknucks Posted May 30, 2005 Share Posted May 30, 2005 Damn ... I would've held onto Reed Johnson. He turns out very well in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cybernetic Posted May 30, 2005 Author Share Posted May 30, 2005 He was struggling and we really needed help with hitting.. he was hitting around .200 and complained about playing time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cybernetic Posted May 30, 2005 Author Share Posted May 30, 2005 By the way I just had a 2-1 loss to the A's in the final of a 4 game set to get a split.. Zito picked up the win, Gaudin the loss.. the offense struggled to get hits off Zito.. about 7 singles and 1 HR (Koskie).. Podsednik got to 3rd once after a bunt single in the 8th but failed to score Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cybernetic Posted May 30, 2005 Author Share Posted May 30, 2005 Took the first two games in a 3-game set vs. the Cubs in inter-league play 2-0 and 4-2.. I've moved out of the AL East basement and am currently in 4th but only 1 GB of 3rd (Yankees).. going for the sweep of the Cubs soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cybernetic Posted May 30, 2005 Author Share Posted May 30, 2005 Just lost the final game of the 3-game set vs. the Cubs 1-0.. Kerry Wood pitched a 4 hit shutout with Hawkins coming in with the tying run on 1st in the 9th to record the final 2 outs. Halladay pitched a CG 5 hitter but allowed a solo HR to Aramis Ramirez for the loss. The team now moves to a 29-31 record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cybernetic Posted May 30, 2005 Author Share Posted May 30, 2005 with the terrible hitting results from the RodData datafile and feedback from others about the datafile.. I've decided that I'm going to switch datafiles.. the search begins in the downloads section for a new one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cybernetic Posted May 30, 2005 Author Share Posted May 30, 2005 I've decided to use Jim825's combo datafiles v2. Only time will tell how well it helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

movietitan Posted June 3, 2005 Share Posted June 3, 2005 if you find out a free way, let me know, id love to do it too (but dont wanna spend money for it) anyway, ive been trying to download certain datafiles and ive decided to use jim's, and it says to rename the file after i extract it and then drop it in the data folder. but when i played the game, nothing had changed, the walk fix wasn't working (the pitching was the same) and the foul ball replays still appeared. i tried them in exhibition mode. do i need to do something else? i mean i renamed the file "datafile.txt" and then put it in the mvpbaseball2005/data folder right?

cybernetic Posted June 3, 2005 Author Share Posted June 3, 2005 I don't see it.. can u give me a direct link to the free dynasty page.. Anyway I won a game with Chacin on the hill last night.. who struggled allowing 2 ER in 5 innings of work and throwing a lot of pitches.. he struggled with commanda nd walked 4 only striking out 2 but Walker did welli n relief and kept the game close in 2 innings of work. The Jays pulled it to a 6-2 lead in the 7th before Speier came in and allowed an earned run to make it 6-3.. Schoenweis came in the 8th and had a 1-2-3 and the team pulled the lead to 7-3 in the top the 9th so it was a non-save situation for Batista so he was not brought in.. Scho' stayed in and picked up the save, eventually allowing the 4th Houston run to score as we completed a 3 game sweep of them in Houston Next is back to Toronto to face the 2004 NL champion St. Louis Cardinals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
