i hope so.
some guys made some great fictional rosters for mlb 11, but it was way too much work for them.
I hope there is an option for fictional rosters this year.

Exactly Owl, nothing so strange as real life, but quirky things like that, they arent allowed to happen in video game world

It wasnt that they happened, but rather the frequency with which they happened.

And the Kazmir deal was a Mets trade, which means a computer AI or an amphibian could have made a better decision.

I hope they were able to get at least two announcers in a booth together for some authentic back and forth style commentary. Even if you hear the same lines over again, the natural cadance at least allows it to turn into background noise that you can just tune out instead of somewhat robotic lines.

But not a thing they talked about sounded lame. All good to hear. And hearing that RTTS has your player being trated like a top prospect, to me, must mean that they won't call you up to the next level to rot on the bench and be expected to meet those benchmarks with sporadic at bats and only starting once every 5 games or so.

In all fairness, people are fed up with the "trade" logic, not the FA signing logic. I'm sure many people wouldn't disagree with these signings in their franchise. Its when the Angels trade Jeff Mathis and a C prospect for Pujols or 2 no-names for C.J. Wilson that people will cry foul. Now of course the game does not recognize names, but even if you go by attributes that is a ridiculous trade.

Well said, that is the point I was trying to make. I never cared where free agents signed. My complaint regarding FA is some of them not being signed at all due to financial issues in the game. I know the devs are working on it, and all the improvements coming to this year are quite staggering. March freakin 6th is so far away.

Knight,

I'm sure it would take truth serum to get anything from you except name rank and serial number but all I need is a few crumbs like will us roster guys be able to choose 8 teams in each league? This would be huge.

I know I'm just dreaming but how great it would be if we could send
our created players from 2011 to 2012 ? Maybe someday...

Thanks Bud,
scoot...

I don't know...I get pertinent info from individuals for a living so all I need is 20 mins with knight and the show details would litter the air! Lmao...watch yourself fireman...never know when those late night calls for your engine will be a trap for you.
