Custom Players:Charlotte Chargers
From MLB Power Pros Wiki
All Success Mode players below were created on the Wii on 2007; their passwords will not work on the PS2 version. Some were created using gambling, but most were created more 'honestly', practicing and using minor save/reloading. I have tried to develop a realistic, balanced team, complete with some weaknesses and even negative abilities. Most have last names pronouncable by the game voice; those names will be bolded below. In the event that a player's name is not pronounceable, I am trying to post an alternate to change their name to.
I am still creating this team in Success mode, but wanted to start documenting the team and get the players all assembled. The depth chart shows how positions should be organized; I have tried to include triple-coverage where possible. This is to offset the fact that I will begin with relatively few AAA reserves, maybe 4-8 players. Since no one has major league experience, some backups for injury should be all I need over the first 3 years.
Please feel free to copy these players, and use this entire team as an arrange team in your MLBPP game; I would love to hear how they do!
