That will definitely be fixed soon, but if anyone wants to fix their set themselves, to make a guy a starter, you just need to go into the Editor, make a note of the guy's Stuff, then raise the level of his worst pitch until his 'role' changes to 'Starter', and then lower the rating of one of his better pitches until his Stuff gets back to its original value.

Finally, I think there's a little quirk in how the game calculates the POT rating for a small number pitchers, which is no doubt why people are seeing 5-star ratings for some guys who aren't all that good. Rather than comment on the star ratings, it's more useful to know when one of the component ratings (Stuff/Movement/Control) doesn't jive with a guy's real life performance, since it's those ratings which determine game outcomes.

Okay, this makes sense. Thanks for the response. I guess I'll go through all 30 teams and make a custom roster set.
