What a SHAME!! Why do they not just go to the vault and use a quality user made player.
I always wondered why SCEA couldn't upload a player model from a previous game. I guess it has something to do with coding or something else I wouldn't understand. Guys like Tejada and Garland have been in the game for years, and their player models looked great in '12. It's too bad those models can't be added to the roster.
I just downloaded this roster yesterday and loaded it up to check on some rosters and players. Why do big name players that are on the DL like Jeter, A-Rod etc. have generic "fake" portrait pictures? Just doesn't make sense to me why they can't or don't use their real pictures when in the roster file that comes with the game has them using real pictures. I guess really doesn't matter to me since I am going to use the generic roster file that the game shipped with anyway because I like to play with the rosters consisting of what they could have been without some of the big injuries. I know I can edit them myself, which I did last year, but takes so much work and the fake pictures turned me off of the idea all together.

It's only like that because those players aren't in the MLB... If you move them to the MLB squad their portraits re-appear.
these are the official SCEA weekly updates and totally separate from the OSFM set. Players without an MLB at bat will not be in the game.
Thanks for the answer. Doesn't make sense they can be in there during Spring Training, but not now. Oh well, will just play from an earlier roster with him.
