Okay quick update!

What I'm planning on doing is putting together this set, and then rebuilding another for better functionality once the new database releases. However, I'm sure that you (and I) would love to have something to tide us baseball fans over until the database is released (usually in February I think? could be wrong...)

So this version will just be missing batting stats for pitchers for 05-06 (as I wasn't able to get them in) and runs allowed (not earned runs allowed, just runs allowed which have no real bearing on anything) for 2005 as I didn't put them in that year.

When I release the next version using the database, those two small issues will be fixed.

Stats are just about updated for 2006 for everyone, and at that time I'll start going through and fixing up salaries and doing the proper roster moves.

Since the last version was just a mess getting all of the levels correct (when the computer would auto manage and send the guys all over the place the next day anyway) I'm just going to aim to have all the guys in the organization this time rated at the appropriate levels but not neccisarily put there. That way you guys can have the set come out with computer run teams already. If that means the computer puts a MLB guy in AAA or a Low A guy at AA, so be it. It was just too big of a hassle last time, and really an irrelavent issue to concentrate so much time on.

The first release will probably have some fake players in it as it will be a straight port from my 2006 OOTP 6.5 set, with salaries done, and roster moves that have been made since I released the set made. After that, I'll go through and try to make sure that all the guys in the organization are on the right teams, but first release will concentrate mainly on MLB/AAA as that's what I think really matters. The nice part is that compared to the OOTP 2006 set I released, my OOTP 6.5 rosters I'm converting have a lot of the prospects rated well.

Sorry for the long winded post. If you need some clarifications, just ask. I can be confusing sometimes.
