2011 offseason roster based off Knight

[rgp913]

Is there a roster available that is based off, or done by, Knight and company that is up to date on all off season transactions? ive looked at a few, but its hard to respect their work when they have guys like Mike Trout with a 60-something in speed. Knight does the best work and i hope there is an offseason abailable to hold me over til The Show 2011 comes out and we have to have that dreadful wait til Knight makes this game the best. To anyone who points me in the correct direction of a good roster, thank you very much!

This is why I would use MLE's or future season projections ... rather than just reducing all of an MiLB'ers ratings by a certain percentage or points.

There has been so much research done in the area of MLE, etc that one should not have to use actual MiLB stats and then reduce across the board.

Basically, there is not much difference between a MiLB and MLB fielder, so the fielding ratings and the speed ratings should be similar. The difference between a MLB player and MiLB player is essentially all "batting" and that's where the difference should be.

You are correct, the disparady is not nearly what many believe. Especially with the top talents where them not being on a mlb roster is more to do with postponing the clock to pay them down the line in many cases and not skill level.

I'm quite shocked at the lack of a updated 2011 roster set, figured there would be a nice big thread with some guys working on it.

Maybe I will have to buy '11 after all.

Dude, it's January.

I'm amazed at how many folks just show up in the rosters forum and act like there should be up to date rosters just ready ... as if they appeared out of nowhere.

Feel free to make your own and upload them. Then field questions about all the inaccuracies in the rosters, and how so-n-so is better than so-n-so, and how everyone is going to go re-rate all the players because your ratings are so off ... and on and on.

Rosters take a while to get right, test for accuracy, etc ... and believe it or not, they ain't exactly the funnest things to work on (which is why everyone is asking for free rosters ... no one wants to do the work).

There are still plenty of trades to be made.

Why someone would release rosters now is beyond me. It's the week before the super bowl.

I'll send out some e-mails and see if anyone is willing to devote their entire weekend into making 2011 rosters for MLB10, so you can save $60. I'll be right back ...

Glad you didn't blow that out of proportion or anything.

What was I thinking, I entered the "Roster" forum and asked if there were up to date "Rosters"....clearly I'm missing something. Very ironic, but I get your drift and I'm still awaiting your roster set anxiously. From what you said in different post it will be a pretty kickass set.

LMAO....very true. It takes a hell of a lot longer than a weekend to boot.

Yeah, I'm all worked up about it. My whole weekend is ruined because you asked for someone to do a bunch of work to save you time and/or money.

I'm just continually amazed at how people seemingly view the existence of others simply to provide a free service for them. I just found it funny that were shocked that updated 2011 rosters were not available to you, for free, at your fingertips, when you wanted them ... in January, no less. The comment about maybe having to buy MLB11 after all was priceless.

Surely you see the humor in your comments. God Forbid you have to buy MLB11 in March if people don't put some rosters together for you.
