Ultimate Roster Project (PC,Xbox,PS2)

Quick question:

I've been updating the .mbe file manually for a while now, trying to keep up with everything, but I have a problem. When I export the rosters it goes smoothly and works fine for the most part - but once I go in to manage rosters and try to exit out it tells me the Daytona Cubs don't have 20 players. The long relievers and middle relievers disappear before I exit the menu.

I can go into the pitching rotation initially but once I try to exit, those relievers disappear and it makes me optimize the roster. The lineup is still fine, but the rotation just disappears for some reason.

Is this a common problem, is there something I'm doing wrong in mvpedit? Any response is appreciated.

edit: nevermind, stupid mistake - didn't have the rotation filled in completely the first time I tried to fix it

I've never heard of such an issue to be honest.

What does the rosters of the Daytona cubs look like in MVPedit? Are there 20 players on the rosters (incl 10 fielders)?

Are the rotation and lineups filled in MVPedit?

The other pitcher in the Hamilton trade was LHP Danny Herrera. Totte, I noticed that Herrera both bats and throws right in your roster, when in actuality he bats and throws left-handed. Also, per this article at BaseballAmerica.com, you should probably make the following changes:

-lower fastball velocity to 84

-change his change-up to a circle-change, change the break to 11-5, and lower the velocity to 58, and up the movement to reflect that it's his best pitch

You sure about the velocities? They seem really low...? Thanks though!

Well, Herrera's 5'8" and only weighs about 150 lbs...I was a bit surprised about the velocities too, but that's what the article I linked to (click "this" in previous post) said, and the boys at BaseballAmerica know their stuff. If nothing else, he'll be fun to use-in game because he's so different.

You're absolutely right, BA is a wicked good source when it comes to things like these :)

Glaus 3b

Lind/Stairs lf

Hill 2b

Jose Castillo (former Pirate) signed with the Marlins this afternoon.

Word on Spanish Radio the past few days, before Castillo was even signed, was the Marlins want Castillo to start (It's not clear if Castillo will start at third, or if he'll start at second and Uggla will move to third) and they're also very close to signing Jorge Cantu who would start the year in the minors.

Personally I'm pissed if Castillo is starting. Can't hit worth s**t, can just barely be considered an average defender...the only thing he has going for him is possibly being the best player at turning a double play. Unless we signed him for bare minimum (I haven't seen a price yet), we got ripped off, it's not hard to find some AAAA guy who could do exactly what Castillo does, probably better at that. Ughhhhh.

Cantu I don't mind as much, but we still haven't signed him yet and if he's in the minors it's a waste.

Actually, if Lind isn't starting in LF he'll be doing that in AAA instead. The first injury to one of the outfielders, Overbay or Thomas and he'll be called up again.

Jays news:

Jays re-signed OF Reed Johnson to a 1Y/$3.275M contract, avoiding arbitration.

Jays also signed RP's John Parrish, Ryan Ketchner and Lance Carter to minor league contracts. They will likely be in the bullpen for Syracuse.

The Orioles acquired center fielder Chris Roberson from the Phillies in exchange for cash considerations.

The A's traded Nick Swisher to the Chicago White Sox for two top pitching prospects, left-hander Gio Gonzalez and right-hander Fautino De Los Santos, and outfielder Ryan Sweeney.
