Any chance somebody could upload it to a different server at all? Rapidshare? Megaupload? Something else?

frosticle · 12-07-2007, 10:10 AM

It should work fine as long as you guys aren't trying to use download accelerators. Filefront used to allow them if you paid for it, which I did, then they canceled the service (Still angry over this one). I just downloaded it with a single connection just fine.

Alright... So I took out the thumbs.db that cubby left in, then compressed the file with a winrar solid archive, which brings a better compression rate. Just off from what 7zip would be, but I didn't want to have to explain what a 7zip is and rar is close enough anyway. Dropped about 13 mbs off the file. Use Winrar or 7zip
to open it.

Here is the file on Media Fire: http://www.mediafire.com/?6n5y9wzy3et . Should work. I downloaded it and extracted it to make sure.

Wow, thanks! Downloaded in seconds from there.

CubbyFan23 · 12-07-2007, 03:26 PM

Go ahead.

Thanks for the rosters again.

lloydbentsen · 12-07-2007, 06:54 PM

Splendid job on these rosters! Thanks for putting this out just in time for my college finals.

ShaneCarson · 12-07-2007, 07:42 PM

Is there a way to release all the players in the MLB league(especially without them changing ratings), export them, and draft them in an inaugural draft for a league with fictional teams and such?

mattdi02421 · 12-07-2007, 07:55 PM

love the Roster, but does anyone else have the problem where non of the free agents sign?

mgom27 · 12-07-2007, 11:37 PM

Paul Byrd has resigned with the Indians and Kenny Rogers with the Tigers.

Also don't forget to turn on AL does Computer Moves from Computer Controlled teams.

pbar25 · 12-08-2007, 12:16 AM

problem solved, thanks a lot for re-hosting it.

Regarding the Cubs.... I must be honest, this was a little shocking that you included the Rule 5 Draft trade of Tim Lahey but didn't include our earlier trade of Ohman? Possibly a signal you forgot a couple days worth of transactions? No biggy at all, just a heads up.

Cubs traded LHP Will Ohman & INF Omar Infante in exchange for RHP Jose Ascanio of the Atlanta Braves.

& RHP Angel Guzman had re-constructive elbow surgery in late September; he will likely not pitch in 2008 unfortunately....hurt again....for the 4th straight year.

nope, that's not it. I can't find another transaction from those days that you missed; you even released RHP Colby Smith from the Royals.

must be an Ohman fan

Hotwheelz · 12-08-2007, 12:32 AM

What kind of weird things are we talking about with having waivers on?

CubbyFan23 · 12-08-2007, 01:15 AM

I ended up turning them on and nothing too odd, just now and then a team will make some weird decisions but I think that's OOTP more than anything.

Hotwheelz · 12-08-2007, 01:23 AM

Very cool. Thank you very much.

Hotwheelz · 12-08-2007, 03:10 AM

I just noticed Andrew McCutchen of the Pirates was nowhere to be found.

Same with David Purcey and Travis Snider of the Jays.

I`m not too worried about the 07 picks at the moment though since none of them are in there. I`m perfectly content with adding them myself though, just thought I`d mention it for future updates if there are any.

rick1980 · 12-08-2007, 11:05 PM

Are service time correct with this version? If it's not where is a good place to go for correct service time so I can add them in?

CubbyFan23 · 12-09-2007, 03:27 AM

They should all be pretty close.

www.mlb4u.com has service time in the player contracts section for each team I believe, right under the contract it will list years.days

ShaneCarson · 12-09-2007, 04:15 PM

I exported the MLB portion of these rosters for use in a fiction league I am trying to start with a friend I live with. When I import them back into the league, everything imports fine except the majority of the starting pitchers become relievers. Does anyone know why this is happening?
