MLB 09 The Show Roster Update 3/4
by 
The first roster update for MLB 09 The Show is now out after a short delay. This update includes 175 player movements and several name additions. Some of the changes are listed below but Ken Griffey Jr is now on the Mariners also. Manny Ramirez did not sign in time to make this update. It’s likely we’ll see the next one, which should be due out on Monday, include him and other more recent moves.
Change Highlights:
C Jason Varitek moved from Free Agent to Red Sox Position.
1B Brad Wilkerson moved from Free Agent 2 to Red Sox Bench.
C Josh Bard moved from Red Sox Position to Red Sox Bench.
CF Mark Kotsay moved from Red Sox Bench to Red Sox Minors.
SP Andy Pettitte moved from Free Agent to Yankees Starting.
1B Nick Swisher moved from Yankees Position to Yankees Bench.
CF Melky Cabrera moved from Yankees Bench to Yankees Position.
3B Morgan Ensberg moved from Free Agent 2 to Rays Minors.
RP Jason Isringhausen moved from Free Agent to Rays Relief.
2B Josh Barfield moved from Indians Minors to Indians Bench.
SP Anthony Reyes moved from Indians Relief to Indians Starting.
C Kenji Johjima moved from Mariners Position to Mariners Bench.
CP Mark Lowe moved from Mariners Relief to Mariners Closer.
SP Oliver Perez moved from Free Agent to Mets Starting.
SP Livan Hernandez moved from Free Agent to Mets Minors.
If you do not have your PS3 connected online I’ve uploaded the file and it can be downloaded directly here and then transferred over.

Nice update

hey pasta can you tell me how to put my ipod music into the game so i can put the walk up songs please.
March 5, 2009 at 4:51 am
First you connect your ipod into the USB port on your PS3. Then on the XMB go to music, find your ipod and then press triangle. That will bring up a menu, select Display All. Find all the tracks you want and then copy them to your hard drive. Then once you boot up MLB 09 go to My MLB Music select all the tracks you want. Then when you edit a player just put those songs as their walk up music. Hope that helped.
July 4, 2009 at 12:25 am
plug your ipod into the ps3 where the controller charger usually goes then download your song(s) then go to my mlb music and download it there too.
March 5, 2009 at 12:58 am
it is almost point because with roster update it over rides the player music.
March 5, 2009 at 1:03 am
what are you talking about
March 5, 2009 at 3:02 am
Thats why people with sense didnt start using that stuff yet
March 5, 2009 at 1:10 am
If you put custom music in, then download a new roster update your custom music for the player will be back to the default. Because when you put in the music , you have to edit each player and updates override that.
March 5, 2009 at 1:24 am
Does it have any new Red Sox prospects?
March 5, 2009 at 1:55 am
Does Pettitte and other free agents have those ugly "free agent" hats?
March 5, 2009 at 11:23 am
Yeah, I saw them last night when I was doing a fantasy draft. And yup, they look the same as last years.
March 5, 2009 at 1:58 am
No prospects. Players are not included until they've played at least one MLB game.
March 5, 2009 at 2:25 am
It's really weird. I downloaded and loaded the roster, but when I look at my rosters, there still not updated. Varitek still isn't on a team. None of the updates are made. Pretty wierd…
To answer Geo:
Yes, they probably will wear those blue FA hats.
I can't wait till Lars Anderson is added.
March 5, 2009 at 8:41 pm
After you download and save, once you back out of the SportsConnect you will then need to load the new roster….It returns to the default roster every time you enter SportsConnect

thanks for uploading
March 5, 2009 at 3:16 am
pasta,
has adam dunn been added to the nats roster in this update?
also, have you notice any bugs with offline gameplay? such as say a home run ball hit right through the upper right field wall of minute maid park instead of bouncing off the wall?
March 5, 2009 at 3:37 am
I thought I downloaded this roster update yesterday. Why does it look like exactly like that same roster update? Or did I download a blank roster update?
March 5, 2009 at 5:03 am
The roster update wasn't working properly yesterday.
March 5, 2009 at 5:45 am
What do you mean exactly? Can you tell me what you mean please?
March 5, 2009 at 5:56 am
It's about time they finally moved Griffey to Seattle. I've been waiting to start my season in this game for a week now for this.
March 5, 2009 at 6:04 am
Thanks for this Pasta.. Wasn't able to Connect to Online right now. Gonna DL.. Lata
March 5, 2009 at 6:34 am
Pasta, or anyone who can help. Can you let me know how to do this? I unzipped that file onto my fl.drive and plugged it into the PS3. Clueless what to do next…
March 5, 2009 at 11:20 am
create a folder on your flash drive named 'PS3' then make a sub folder called 'SAVEDATA' and put the unzipped files in there. then when you turn your ps3 on go to saved game utility and it should see your flash drive and u will get it from there.
March 5, 2009 at 11:25 am
Wow, glad I don't have to do this.
March 5, 2009 at 5:32 pm
how do you upload the roster update. I have never done this before. I have my ps3 connected to the internet
March 5, 2009 at 10:07 am
Thanks a lot Anthony Gadberry. I appreciate it man.
March 5, 2009 at 8:42 pm
Dunn is on the Nats in the two newest updates….
March 5, 2009 at 8:43 pm
There are also manual roster updates if you go to the download tab. There is a roster with Manny back on the Dodgers available…
I like the fact that Sony is updating the rosters already….Very nice….Now let's hope they fix online….
March 6, 2009 at 1:50 am
Fix online? Doesnt need any fixing on my end. reality check
March 6, 2009 at 5:17 am
Works perfect for me as well. people need to realize that the problem is on their end sometime
March 6, 2009 at 6:00 am
I need help. I went to the link, clicked on the Download link, but know I can't find the file on my computer! Where is it?
March 6, 2009 at 4:44 pm
I downloaded the new roster file to my USB flash drive. I have no clue how to load the new rosters onto my PS3. I need help and would be very greatful!!
March 6, 2009 at 5:09 pm
how does this differ for PS2 users
March 6, 2009 at 7:19 pm
what about for psp? roster update i mean. do you know when it is coming out.
March 6, 2009 at 7:32 pm
my games online are really slow and glitchy
is this my internet connection?
March 9, 2009 at 4:59 pm
does anyone know a way to update your rosters weekly without starting a new franchise every time-also would it make sense to wait until the actual season starts and then just control every teams rosters to manually update as the season goes along
March 10, 2009 at 2:25 am
yea, let me know what you find out… i need answers to the same questions…
March 14, 2009 at 10:52 am
Did you figure out how to load a download roster into your franchise? When I try to load something in my franchise, the "Roster" option is grayed out…
March 11, 2009 at 10:43 pm
I manually updated my rosters for PS2 and tried to load them into a Franchise but they will not load…it freezes. This is the second Disc its done this for. If I place Manny alone on his team it takes…but not everyone. Any ideas?
July 10, 2009 at 9:12 pm
happen to me to you just dont save them then when your done just save franchise quit game mode and save rosters –DREW
March 13, 2009 at 1:09 am
I got drafted by the phillies which was sweet… then got traded which was even sweeter, but it was to the orioles. I finished the first contract i signed which was two years, i and dont want to throw in the AL east anymore. So i was going to try and hit the free agent market and not resign. I go through the offseasn and not sign with them when i get to the end no one else offers me a contract and it says orioles resign you for x amount and one year… what happened to just going to spring training with somebody and trying to make that team or am i doing something wrong.
March 14, 2009 at 12:27 am
what did you get as your first spring training contract offer in road to the show? I feel like i got cheated because i only got 40,000 per year. anyone else….
March 14, 2009 at 3:22 am
i think that is about what i got… i cant really remeber though. i just want to change teams and right now i cant. I wonder if i have to just keep playin until i get more than one team to offer to me. it just sucks cause its not like the dodgers were gonna make manny play for them if he didnt want to.
March 17, 2009 at 6:41 am
Will this download work on the ps2 machine?
March 20, 2009 at 5:37 am
can you get updated 09 rosters for the show 08?
March 27, 2009 at 12:44 am
Who can tell me how to upload my pic to my MLB09 the Show profile? please email me want2vacation2004@yahoo.com
thanks so much
April 16, 2009 at 3:04 am
that's because you are under contract just like any real player in the majors. you have to have 6 years of mlb service before you are free to sign with any team. just like in real life, the big league team owns you!
May 24, 2009 at 11:05 pm
