Story's start to the season is one of the most impressive I've ever seen, but his Power is way too high. Let's get a better sample size at the MLB level before giving him 70/76 power. Should be 20 points lower in my opinion. I'll be changing that on my roster.

Dumb question but where do you download the official roster? Is it just mixed in the Roster Vault?

I do as well. If you start a franchise select yes for fantasy draft and then cancel the draft all of the players end up with cyber faces and they stay on their respective teams. This way all of the players look consistent and they change hats when they change teams.

Was hoping Byung-Ho Park would've been a medium C potential guy with more power and less contact, but I can understand the D until he can prove himself.

Nice tip on the cyberface thing. I prefer photos unless the player has been traded or is on a different team then cyberface.

Players in MLB The Show that have photos will change to a cyberface with hat when traded.

I'm not sure if i'm doing something wrong, but it seems players in roster update don't show when playing in Play Now mode with daily roster. I'm trying hard to use Kenta Maeda, but he's not in the pitiching rotation. The same with Trevor Story, he's not in the Rockies lineup, so i suppose it's a glitch/bug which affect every player in the roster update. ( ? )

I tried Play Now and used Live Rosters last night and they were not using the new rosters.

Keep in mind that R.B.I Baseball is produced by MLBAM, the same folks behind MLB.com... Also, I don't even think that there are create-a-players in R.B.I. Or custom rosters, for that matter.

This is happening to me too. The team records are also two days behind it seems.

Totally agree...a few games is simply not enough to change anything in baseball, things regress to the mean in baseball. SCEA needs to avoid knee jerk reactions based on small sample sizes. Many players have had insane hot streaks only to regress to the norm.

The new Live Roster has new players added. I know Broxton for the Brewers is there (thanks guys). Mazara is on Texas, Vazquez is on Boston (pretty sure neither of those guys were there before). I'm sure there are others they added, but those are the ones that I caught right off the bat.
