Easy money
Use the following trick to get a lot of money in Franchise mode. Go to your calendar before a home game. Make
the normal choices needed to play a game (controller, pitcher selection, etc.). Then at the line up screen,
exit all the way back to your calendar. You will receive the revenue for that game. Repeat this as many times
as desired. It is a good idea to only do this on home games as you will receive the advertising, ticket, and
concession revenue. For example, with a team like Kansas City or Tampa Bay, you will only get a small amount
of money, but it will increase your attendance. Also, do not do this during spring training or opening day as
you will not receive any money.
Easy base stealing
Use the following trick to easily steal bases in Career mode. When you are on second base with two outs, the
man covering the base is far behind. Tap R1 to step out. Keep tapping R1 until the runner goes for third base.
The pitcher will throw to second base, then to third. You will have time to reach the base safely. Sometimes
the pitcher will step out and will not throw the ball. If that happens, press L1 to return to second base.
Easy saves
Put your closer in the game at the start of the seventh inning and use him for the rest of the game.
Easy accomplishments for profile and franchise goals
Set up a game in your franchise as usual. However, instead of choosing your franchise team, choose the team
you are facing. When you start the game, let your franchise's starting pitcher strike out as many players on
the other team as possible. When it is your turn to pitch, use only fastballs down the middle. This will
result in the player hitting a home run or a regular hit to the position players. If the batter hits a pop up,
ground ball, or line drive, let the ball drop. If possible, let the ball roll away from you. Do not pick up the
ball; just stand near it enough so the base runners keep running around the bases. This will give your players
many inside the park home runs. If you need to stop the base runner where he is, throw the ball in as he
approaches the base.
Save money
In the offseason when you are resigning free agents, there is a very effective way of saving a lot of money
for free agency without changing stats. Instead of lowering and raising stats, just go to "View Roster" and
convert all of your starters and closers into relievers. Resign all of them to small deals worth at most about
$3 million a year. Once you sign them, change them back into their original position. It may not sound like
much, but if you have a $19 million pitcher like Johan Santana, it can be a lot of free money. This will also
work with turning slow players into the 2B or SS position and resigning them, or turning small players into
the C or 1B position and resigning them.
Finding Daisuke Matsuzaka
There is a rookie pitcher on the Boston Red Sox with the name "Tate Baik". He is actually Daisuke Matsuzaka.
Recommended Career mode position
When you start Career mode, play as a switch hitting catcher. Improve your Contact (Left and Right), Power
(Left and Right), and Speed, but nothing else until you are out of the minors or spring training. You are not
called on a lot to throw out runners because most of the time the hitters will hit pop-ups or lay down bunts.
