I have given already some time and dedication and hopefully this can enhance your gaming experience. -------------------------------------- (2) NEWS -------------------------------------- 25.03.04 Nice little update, added a release table under the teams to make it easier for you guys. Can't wait to get official rosters going.. it's hard to follow the minor league contracts. Anyway hopefully next week I'll have a great lineup for TB and NYY :) 17.03.04 Happy St-Patrick's Day! My present to all of you fans out there is a more complete guide, so less hassle of looking up for a player. Unfortunately my xbox is suffering from "thompsonitis" a.k.a I have a Thompson dvd-rom and it is currently bugging a lot while playing this game it is the reason why it took me awhile before updating. It's a real pain in the you know where and as of now I don't have enough money to get a new system (unless someone wants to give me a new system :D) wishful thinking I know. ENJOY the update! 10.03.04 I just bought the game and doing this in my free time (aka at work) and therefore cannot make sure that every player in my listing is true. For example I do know that Ivan Rodriguez is located under Free Agents and not the Florida Marlins, but I believe it would be easier if I were to name only the former teams all the time. Therefore if you cannot find a certain person do not despair. Look under free agents and their minor league affiliates. If you can't find them anywhere than the player is not in the game. Hopefully I'll fix this problem soon. Another possibility is to rename a AAA player with the person in question. ----------------------------------------------------- (3) ROSTER UPDATES ----------------------------------------------------- Latest Updates: 2B Tony Womack to St Louis Cardinals from Boston Red Sox or Free Agents RP Randy Choate to Arizona Diamondbacks from Montreal Expos SP John Patterson to Montreal Expos from Arizona Diamondbacks 1B Mike Lamb to Houston Astros from New York Yankees or Free Agents 2B Carlos Febles to Boston Red Sox from Omaha Royals (Kansas City Royals) RP Todd Jones to Cincinnati Reds from Durham Bulls (Tampa Bay Devil Rays) RP Ugueth Urbina to Detroit Tigers from Free Agents RP Scott Sauerback to Cleveland Indians from Pawtuckett Red Sox (Boston Red Sox) INF Deivi Cruz to Free Agents from Tampa Bay Devil Rays 3B Fernando Tatis to Free Agents from Tampa Bay Devil Rays RP Mike Williams to Free Agents from Tampa Bay Devil Rays Note: MLC stands for Minor League Contracts American League -------------- Anaheim Angels -------------- Acquired SP Jason Middlebrook (MLC) (02/19/04) from New York Mets Released CF Julio Ramirez to Arizona Diamondbacks ----------------- Baltimore Orioles ----------------- Acquired 2B Mark Mclemore (MLC) (02/04/04) from Free Agents Released RP Hector Carrasco to Chicago Cubs Boston Red Sox -------------- Acquired P Nick Bierbrodt (01/16/04) from Buffalo Bisons (Indians AAA) 2B Terry Shumpert (MLC) (01/19/04) from Free Agents SP Reynaldo Garcia (Waiver 01/26/04) from Oklohoma Redhawks (Rangers AAA) LF Ellis Burks (02/05/04) from Free Agents CF Adam Hyzdu (11/14/03) from Pittsburgh Pirates 2B Carlos Febles (??/??/??) from Omaha Royals (Royals AAA) Released 2B Tony Womack (MLC) (01/24/04) from Free Agents TRADED to St Louis Cardinals (03/21/04) P Scott Sauerback to Cleveland Indians P Rudy Seanez to Kansas City Royals SP Steve Woodard to Oakland Athletics OF Jeremy Giambi to Los Angeles Dodgers ----------------- Chicago White Sox ----------------- Acquired RP Vic Darensbourg (MLC) (01/21/04) from Edmonton Trappers (Expos AAA) OF Marvin Bernard (MLC) (01/21/04) from Fresno Grizzlies (Giants AAA) RP Jose Santiago (MLC) (01/21/04) from Buffalo Bisons (Indians AAA) Released SP Robert Person (MLC) (01/21/04) from Pawtuckett Red Sox(Red Sox AAA) Note:Person was released March 5th 2004 from his contract.
