Operation Sports Full Minors 2012 Roster - Spring Training Edition Available Now

06:57 PM - April 3, 2012 by Knight165

Okay guys...

Here is the Spring Training version of the Operation Sports Full Minors for 2012, for MLB 12 The Show.

This initial set looks really tight... and there is some FANTASTIC work done on these. Dare I say... the best set yet.

There are too many to thank for this... and I will come back and fill out this post with all those involved, as I know you guys want to get your hands on these and start your franchises.

Here is the link for the OSFM ST v.1

They will be up in the Vault momentarily...

File name: O.S.F.M. SPRING

Thanks for all your patience... and most of all enjoy!!!

I just want to thank some people... and I have to say... this community is truly exceptional. Operation Sports is simply the best run website I visit. Bar none... and the members that frequent here are one of the main reasons. Good people attract other good people.

In no particular order... I really need to thank all of the people involved in the making of this set... as this is a true community effort and without all of these guys, it would make the process much harder and much, much longer.

Thanks to:

I'd like to thank ksig24 for his insight and input into the potential base for the set...

... and last but CERTAINLY not least...
RidinDwnKingsley...

Without his TREMENDOUS work and the immense amount of time that he puts into these rosters... they would have taken 3 times as long to do.

I CANNOT say enough about this, as his dedication and sheer bulldog mentality to get it done, means so much to these.

Also to Steve... the owner of O.S. and the mods on here who make it easy to keep the threads in order and viable to use in conjunction with the set.

...and of course thanks to the entire O.S. community for all the input that you guys have been putting into these for YEARS!

THANK YOU!

Guys.....a lot of people have requested to give back in response to these rosters. They offer thanks and several have offered money.
I suggest charities if you really want to do something as a thanks to these.

My suggested charities....The N.Y.C. FireFighters Burn Center....Wounded Warriors....or .....http://www.extra-life.org/

Thank you!

What is "ridin"'s ps3 name so I may download when these come out?

A huge thank you to those who worked so hard on making this game really come to life for us. I have never played The Show and I am so looking forward to complete immersion into my mini-MLB universe for many seasons.

Absolutely, better than a 1 year @ 500k deal though

. I'm sure we all appreciate the "somewhat" real salaries you're able to generate rather than the not even close to real numbers.

Appreciate the time you've put in on Bay, Santana etc. in the upcoming release

first I want to say a big thank you to everyone who puts in so much hard work for these awesome rosters..easily the best of any game..second in regards to players being injured to start the season..like howard and martinez and guys like that..during the season will teams call those guys up or what? i dont do 30 team control so i was just wondering..i wouldnt want those guys in the minors or injured forever so how does that work? thxs in advance

# 585 Totte @ 04/10/12 02:11 PM

The Reds have agreed to extend second baseman Brandon Phillips, Jim Bowden of ESPN.com and MLB Network Radio tweets. The deal covers Phillips' 2012-17 seasons, Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports tweets. The ACES client agreed to a six-year deal worth $72.5MM.

Wow! Votto, Phillips, Bruce, Cueto, Latos, and Chapman are all locked up for at least 3 more years! What a core to build around. Look out for the Redlegs!

# 587 ilstu24 @ 04/10/12 02:58 PM

Knight, I wanted to know if Oscar Taveras and all of the Cardinals changes i sent you got in?

# 588 nezff @ 04/10/12 05:17 PM

Is it weird that I can't use Bryce Harper in practice mode

# 589 PsychoBulk @ 04/10/12 05:29 PM

You can. Put him on the Nats major league roster then go back into practice and use him.

You DO NOT need to use 30 team control to have MANUAL injuries.(and you can switch it back to ON after and back and forth at any time).
Just choose which team....put injuries to MANUAL at the USER SETTINGS-GAMEPLAY options page and then make sure that the profile is also the DEFAULT profile.
The only thing you can't do with that is put them on the DL yourself.(you can give them the injuries...just not make the DL move)

Just make sure he's on at least the AA team and you can.

The cpu will not place their long term "manually" injured players on the DL right?
any idea why they dont do this?

# 593 RidinDwnKingsley @ 04/10/12 07:04 PM

Just another update guys:

Im working on last minute tweaks additions etc...I got Aroids Moyer in as well as fixed a ton of uniform #'s. Kinslers 5 yr extension is in as well as Phillips and Santanas. AAA is being tweaked as of now...its not gonna be perfect due to missing players but will be very close and playable....when this is ready tommorow it will be posted here, the vault and on my Twitter account...I will post more updates here and Twitter as we get closer...thanks again to everyone involved in this process, its been a pleasure..and If we missed anything in this version we will def catch it for the next....

They've stated they'll be done sometime tomorrow.

Can someone answer the question about teams calling up players if they are in the minors when the season starts? I use 30 team control but I'm not really concerned about real life injuries.

# 597 insideoutside15 @ 04/10/12 07:20 PM

I wasn't really sure how to search the thread for this other than "Middlebrooks" and that didn't get any results, so: I noticed that Red Sox minor leaguer Will Middlebrooks was listed as "Middlebrook." I didn't really think it was a big deal, it's the first draft of a huge roster, it's an easily fixable mistake, etc. It turns out that there's a hard character limit for last names and that he's a letter shy of it. That was kind of a downer, since I had been planning on doing a Red Sox franchise and he was going to be a big part of it, but now his just barely incorrect name bugs me too much.

Basically what I want to know is A) are there any other big prospects with cutoff names and B) why is there an 11 character limit in the first place? It seems kind of silly, especially when the same organization has Saltalamachia.

# 598 Geolink @ 04/10/12 07:42 PM

Will it be listed somewhere what player was brought up after someone went on the DL/Sent down?

I hate to bring up someone that's not on the actual team.

If you leave ROSTER MOVES or whatever it's called..(I can't remember off hand....not MANAGEMENT...that's hiring firing coaches) the CPU will do it if you use 30 team control and DL players with MANUAL injuries.
If you have injuries on ON....and let the CPU handle roster moves...it will do them

When we edit players....there is a letter limit. Middlebrooks exceeds the limit.

There is a thread with the roster moves. I think strut24 does it.

Aroid....I don't know why the team doesn't DL players.....and I forgot to ask them that once again...sorry.

Hi Knight (or whomever can help me out with this rosters question). First of all, thank you so much for all the work this community has done with the rosters. So far, they have been great to play with and I'm really looking forward to the updated version that goes live tomorrow so that I can begin my franchise!

My question is this: I am new to The Show, buy have been furiously reading how to set up the 25 man rosters in franchise mode by manually controlling all 30 teams, etc. I understand how to option the 15 players to the minors who will not be part of the regular season 25 man roster. How do I know which players are the 15 that I need to option to the minors for each of the 30 teams and what level I should option them to? Is there a spreadsheet or website that has been posted for this information? I don't need to manually injure players who are beginning the season on the DL, but would really like to get the 25 man rosters as close to real as possible.

Please help me understand this piece of the puzzle. I would love an answer to this by the time the updated rosters come out tomorrow night!

Thanks!
