Hint:
Stealing home: If you have a fairly fast runner on third base, start to steal
home. Go back when the throw to third base goes home. You will be safe
almost always.
Hint:
Easy fly ball catches: When you are in the outfield and are not sure where the ball is
going to land because of the wind, the outfielder will lock on the ball to
make an easy catch. Note: This only works under the rookie difficulty
setting.
Hint:
Easy homerun: While batting, press Start button and switch teams. Resume
the game and the other team will be batting. Make sure that the ball is in
the center (rookie mode), then switch back to your original team. Swing the
bat and you will have a good chance of a homerun.
Hint:
Easy base stealing: If your runner is on first base and has decent speed, take two or
three lead off steps. As soon as the pitcher's arm moves to throw, press Up
+ Square. If the pitcher throws to first base, once the ball gets to
the first baseman press Circle to go back. If he does not throw, you
should be safe at second base.
Hint:
Building a good team: Start a franchise or season. When you get to the season, go into
the "Edit" category and select your player. Choose to move the
player to another team. You then can have any desired star on your team.
After your first season you will lose some players due to the fact you will
be over budget, but you can do this trick again. To get better ratings for
other players, do the same thing by selecting a player and then editing the
desired category up or down.
Start a franchise. For example,
if your team is the Brewers and you would like to trade a bad player for the
Red Sox's Pedro Martinez, go to "Setup". Go to "Edit
Rosters" and scroll to your team (Milwaukee). Edit any player desired
(for example, Glendon Rusch) and boost all his stats to 100, except the walk
ratio which should be set to 20. Then, scroll to the Red Sox and lower all
of Pedro Martinez's stats. Go back to your schedule and sim at least a week.
Then, go back to "Setup" and go to the Red Sox. Notice that
because his ratings are horrible Pedro Martinez has been demoted to the
minors. Go back to "General Manger" and trade your beefed up
player (Glendon Ruch) for Pedro Martinez. Once you get him, go back to
"Setup" and "Edit Rosters". Go to your team (Milwaukee)
and bump up all of Pedro Martinez's stats (walk ratio to 20 and everything
else to 100). Then, go to the Red Sox and lower Glendon Rusch's stats.
Use the following trick to
re-sign created players for less money. Play a franchise and then go to
"Setup" before you start your schedule. Select "Import
Players" and import your created players. Go to "General
Manger" and sign him. He will sign for one or two batting points for
about two to three years. Then, play. As your player is going into his last
season of his two or three year contract, sim that season until you get to
the World Series game (whether you are in the series or not). Go to
"Setup" and to "Edit Roster". Go to your team and lower
all of your created players' attributes to 40. Then, go back and play or sim
the World Series. Next, go to the off season and your player will file for
free agency. Do the coaches, draft, until you get to free agency. Select
your created player and make an offer. He will sign for 1 budget point again
for two to three years Sign your player, then when the season is about to
begin go back to "Setup" and "Edit Rosters". Bring your
players' stats back up again. This works with any player on your team.
Hint:
Get ejected: Hit a player while pitching three or four times and you will be
ejected.
