Yes, you can.

I don't believe you can use the game's sliders online though.

Ok, it's a done deal - I'll be picking up 'The Show' in two weeks (April 1st - that's not an April Fools joke either). I promised my wife that I'd at least wait until my next paycheck before buying a new game.

Anyone interested in a short league with MLB 06? I'm thinking of maybe a 10-15 game season with playoffs.

This game deserves some extra recognition for the great career mode.  I'm having a good time with it and they've implemented some nice features.  I'm hoping it holds up over multiple seasons.

It really does, Ted.  Last year's had all these annoying problems, like loading up games you didn't actually appear in when "sim to next appearance" was pressed, and a dumb difficulty system that started you off on Rookie no matter what and then progressed as your player progressed.  I like that you can play this year's at a fixed difficulty.  I started a career on the PSP version at HOF difficulty, going out for the center fielder spot in the Tigers organization.  I had an anemic spring, hitting only .210 with no power whatsoever and some shameful fielding, but managed to get a contract offer to play AA ball, where I'm tearing it up.

I like the career mode so much, I picked up a used eyetoy for the PS2 version so I can put my face in there.  I really like the idea of doing a career as a starting pitcher and turning the fielding to auto, so I'm really only playing my character.  Just sim to the days where I'm pitching.

I'm glad to see that there's some interest in this. Hopefully web and Kevin will be interested too.

Yep - I'm listening, and interested!  It will be a week before I can pick it up (next Friday, to be specific).  Can you wait for me to start the "official" league?

I can since I won't own it until next Saturday at the earliest LOL.
