I have a question. The patch didn't fix the problem with the draft pool consisting of too few position players. Is there a roster I can download that fixes this problem or some sort of a workaround?

Thanks.

Thanks...I was hoping they had replaced his stance with a better one ...maybe next year...

There is plenty of A's position that come onto draft. Too many and we are dealing with the same issue of too many A pitchers.
 
# 28 bxgoods @ 05/21/10 06:14 PM
Wait... So the draft is still messed up?
 
# 29 tabarnes19_SDS @ 05/21/10 06:16 PM
I think it is fine.
 
# 30 bxgoods @ 05/21/10 06:20 PM
Greatt!

- Fixed pitcher potentials in season and franchise modes.

Did anyone ever figure out what this meant? Does it have any effect on someone using OS Full Minors Roster?

Thanks for fixing the problems with the last patch in such a timely fashion!

So, seeing as this is the last patch for '10 and it appears to have gone unaddressed once more, has SCEA even acknowledged the 2013 (and beyond) free agency glitch? I'm tired of playing the one sane man act.

edit: I just reread this and it came across as whiney, and I didn't intend it to. Tbarnes says that the issue is fixed as of this patch, I just didn't see any mention of the particular problem in these updates so I feel like I'm in the movie Gaslight and they're saying "what are you talking about, there never WAS a 2013 glitch you crazy guy..."
 
# 33 GOBLUE_08 @ 05/21/10 06:30 PM
Not 100% on this but you may have to use SCEA's most recent roster update with fake minors if you plan on playing deep into your franchise controlling only 1 team. If you plan on controlling all 30 teams then you should be fine using knights rosters.

Thank you!!! Very much appreciated by someone that just shelled out for a PS3 Slim and this game.

Played 2 games after the patch and no issues. Game also seemed to run smoother than before. Little brief pauses between end-of-game replays but otherwise, very nice.
 
# 35 TexasLeague @ 05/21/10 06:42 PM
much appreciated!
 
# 36 coreyhartsdaughter @ 05/21/10 06:45 PM
Many thanks for the incredible turn around time on this. Not to mention (even though I am) following through on releasing a patch this late in the season.

Amazing work.

I just had the 2011 draft and there were zero A potential position players in the draft. Zero.

It doesn't take a genius to figure out what the game is going to look like in a few years.
 
# 38 DevilsEve666 @ 05/21/10 07:30 PM
has there been 2 updates this week? because i downloaded one yesterday on 5-20 and today i get prompted to download one again...what is going on here, i thought there was just one patch?

did you draft with patch 3? And had you already started the 2011 season when you d/l the patch?
 
# 40 RogueHominid @ 05/21/10 07:58 PM
The response to this problem is truly impressive. I believe that SCEA have created the most authentic simulation of a sport that I've ever seen, and they seem to care more deeply about their product than any company/development team whose products I've bought.
