Stupid question...

Jacobs Field or Progressive Field for the Indians?

I was surprised to see Evan Longoria in the game. Guys like Josh Hamilton are going to need ratings adjustments probably.

Jay Bruce and Clayton Kershaw are not in the game. Just looked for a few guys I could think of.
That really sucks since we have to create them through success mode and we wont be used to it yet, so it will take some time to make somegood players in success mode. I guess after my first run through I'll start making some of the rookies or try to get better, I heard that gambling is back which is huge for making good players.

Aren't the rosters from opening day with some of the rookies added? I was thinking that's what it was going to be.

Haha, yea. I thought it was confirmed a while ago that the rosters would pretty much be as of Opening Day.

I imagine a work-around for created players would be editing some of the fake FA guys and making copies of them between memory cards. I know their historical data becomes FUBAR as a result of that, but it's one way to go I suppose.

I only played half an inning so far and one thing I instantly noticed was that your batter does not move around the box any more, so no more moving yourself into inside pitches to draw walks. I guess that is good and bad. Hopefully you still get HBP's sometimes though.

Well, what I'm going to do for most people is if I can find someone with a birthdate around the same date/year I'll edit them into another person and put them onto an arrange team and restore the person. I definitely have to have the age right for the people if I edit them or I'll have to make them in success mode.

I'm not bitching about it "Bro". I'm just stating what I noticed because I know people will be asking.
