The Opening Day roster update for MLB 09 The Show came out earlier today. This update includes 210 player movements. For those of you who can’t log into SportsConnect and download the update I have uploaded the file here to be retrieved manually. It needs to be unpacked and then the folder transferred over to the PS3 saves.
It turns out this might not be the update to settle on if you’ve been waiting to start a franchise. Gary Sheffield is listed as a free agent instead of being on the Mets and rookies cannot be added until they’ve played an official game. So next Monday may bring a more significant update. The highlights as listed by SCEA are below.
SP Tim Wakefield moved from Red Sox Relief to Red Sox Starting.
RP Ramon Ramirez moved from Red Sox Minors to Red Sox Relief.
CF Melky Cabrera moved from Yankees Position to Yankees Bench.
SP Dontrelle Willis moved from Tigers Starting to Tigers Minors.
CF Andruw Jones moved from Rangers Position to Rangers Bench.
RP Derrick Turnbow moved from Rangers Relief to Rangers Minors.
C Josh Bard moved from Free Agent to Nationals Minors.
CP Trevor Hoffman moved from Brewers Closer to Brewers Minors.
LF Gary Sheffield moved from Tigers Position to Free Agent.
