MLB 08: The Show cheats & more for PlayStation 2 (PS2)

Hints

Franchise Players

In franchise mode I found out that some players that are playing in the mlb right now are in the gme but their real names are not mentioned. Here are some examples:
Leo Vera on the Rays is really Reid Brignac
Ivan Jimenez on the Orioles is Kevin Millar
Thai Tran on the Dodgers is Clayton Kershaw but 10 years older
Shawn Robles on the Astros is Jeff Fulchino.

Suicide Squeeze Bunt

Here's what you have to do you have to get a man to third with 0 or 1 out and then you steal home and have the man at the plate a bunt. The player with the ball has no choice but to throw it to first. I do it to win games as walk offs all the time and it works about 90% of the time unless your player misses the bunt and the catcher tags him out.

How To Put Down A Good Bunt

When you are up press the circle button then point the right analog stick down.

Good Season

When you start a season pick any team and then when the options menu comes up turn ignore budgets on and force trades on. Then trade good people for your bad people and then you'll be good.

Get Out Of Debt In Season And Franchise Mode

During season or franchise mode and you are in debt and you don't want to be taking loans release some players that have high salary. Then call up some players with low salary to your MLB team. Go to Player Management, then View Roster, the players name's on your team should appear. Press X on any highlighted player's name and then cycle threw the options until it show yellow bars then move up whichever of the bars you want better (with the directional buttons).

Run Faster

When you get a hit into the gaps, and you want extra bases, hold down the advance button instead of clicking it. This will increase the baserunner's speed.

Classic Pitching

When you want to Classic Pitch then you need to hold down the button you chose and wait until the pitcher throws it {NOTE: the longer you hold it down the faster it will go}

Pitcher Career

If you do a pitcher career, the Tigers is a very good team to play for because its easy for you to move up in the minors, and if you don't make the majors first year, you have a good chance of making it withing next 2-3 seasons. And also, if it does take between 2-4 to make MLB the team is still a very strong team to play for.

From The Stretch

When pitching from the stretch, waiting for your pitcher to come fully set [rather than quick pitching] actually does make the pitch more effective and accurate.
