I'm new to OOTP, and have successfully uploaded CubbyFan's update to get started and explore. Whatever the latest update is as of early 2012, I will want to go in and reflect team assignments for a reality-based keeper league, and do batch uploads of the statistics (exp's ?) upon which game play is based, and tinker with ratings.

SO...on CubbyFan's set, there appear to be several key files relevant to my goals:
ml_rosters (I have the sense this has pre-update exp's and is not used by OOTP once I update)
mlb_rosters, mlb_rosters2, mlb_rosters3 --- assume these are the key files, but appear to be identical except for record sort order.

The question is, which do I modify with updated team and/or stats?

Question 2 -- has anyone compiled a list of all the fields, what they represent, and the range of legal values? Looking for the OOTP data dictionary....

Big thanks to anyone who can help!
