Hold On I got 2 different answeres.

Let's Say that you started your DD. Wandy Rodriguez was on Houston and Mark Trumbo was on the Angels. If in the MLB They got traded for each other, and you played the Astros in your DD against the CPU, would Wandy Rodriguez be pitching against you?

So what are the differences between Bronze, Silver, Gold & Platinum cards?

Also the players don't stay in card form forever, once you activate them to your roster they are no longer in card form.
How many cards can a user store? I'm guessing card form is keeping them on the "shelf" until you're ready to use (activate) them in game. Can you train players that are still in card form?

Don't remember how many you can store. But no you can't train players while they are in card form.

From what they're saying, I don't think you "start" with a roster. You will always be required to play with the most recent MLB roster. The game mode will update automatically. This is a lot like playing NHL (and I'm sure other games) online. I'm order to play online you must download the most recent roster

I think the 1st answer was in regards to playing the CPU, and what roster they have when you play them. The 2nd answer was in regards to the trade having an effect on your roster... so that's where the possibility of duplicate players comes into play (when it comes to your roster and the CPU roster.)

LOL, I think I'm having an mini inception moment.

Probably an obvious question but:

Due to the nature of the mode, it's pretty much a given that we'll have the occasional MLB player playing against his own team and himself?

Not that it bothers me or anything.

While we can create names (think HS or college teammates), we would only get to play as those players until the player is retired or we upgrade to a better player.

This is why the uniform creator portion is so cool, because it becomes more about the TEAM and less about the individual player/star. I'm guessing player turnover is extremely high in this game to keep it fresh.

Very cool mode! Can't wait to get my paws on it.

This will not be available on the Vita, correct?
