Hints
Trades
In season mode, the CPU will accept all your trades (at least in rookie mode). You can trade players that you do not use a lot for other players on other teams that are very good. For example it is possible to trade Marcus Thames to the Diamondbacks for Randy Johnson.
Build team easily
In franchise mode, use the following trick to build up your team instantaneously rather than through game play. For example, if you want to get hitting greats such as Albert Pujols, Barry Bonds, Sammy Sosa, or Vladimir Guerrero, go to create-a-player in the "Roster" menu. Once there, create a player with whatever visual and physical characteristics desired, then proceed to the attributes screen. Give the player 99 in Contact vs. Lefty and Contact vs. Righty, 99 in Power vs. Righty and Power vs. Lefty, 99 in Throwing Strength, and 99 in Throwing Accuracy. Make the player be born in the oldest possible date allowed by the game, so that he retires after about one season. Also, set his Durability to 36. Thus, he is extraordinarily injury prone. Once you have created this player, sign him but make sure you have the salary cap room as he will be very expensive. Once you have him, deal him off for one of the aforementioned superstars. More often than not, this superstar will have a lower contract than the created player, allowing you to repeat this process as long as you can afford it. If you need to open up cap room, trade away the players that the superstars replace or release unnecessary, high contract, players.
Go to the menu that allows you to make roster changes. Make all of the trades that you desire. The CPU will accept everything. Once you create your team, you can start a franchise with it. Many of the older players like Randy Johnson will not retire as quickly as they would normally. This is a good way to break all of the milestones. After you reset the game, you will have to go back to the roster menu and load the rosters again.
Easy double plays
When you are playing against the CPU and it has players on base, wait until the next batter is up. If the batter hits a ball to the outfield and it is not a line drive, get off the player that is suppose to catch the ball and wait until the very last moment to catch the ball. Then, take control of the outfielder to make the out. The CPU's baserunners will already be running to the next base because they thought the ball would not have been caught. After you make the catch, you can throw out the baserunners who forgot to tag up. This is an easy way to make double and even triple plays
Easy run
If you have a man on first and third base, have the player on first steal. Once you see the catcher's arm go up, send your player on third base home.
Perfect game
Use Barry Zito or create a player that has a good slider and curveball. Throw the slider two times to the opposite side that the pitcher throws. For example, Zito is left-handed, so throw it to the right side (inside of a left-handed batter). This will cause the batter to think it is either to the inside or to the outside. The pitch must be at the edge of the strike zone. After that, throw a curveball in the upper inside or outside corner. He should strike out, pop out, or ground out.
Get a left handed pitcher with a curveball and four seam fastball. Start the batter off with a curveball on the lower-inside corner of the strike zone. The second pitch should be a four seamer to the lower-outside corner of the plate. The second should be the curveball again. Usually the batter will strike out, but if he does not he will pop out or hit the ball weakly to someone. There is a chance that the batter will bloop the ball for a single -- bring your outfielders in on every batter. All bloops will be caught and the batters will not be able to hit a fly ball over your fielders' heads. Recommended pitchers are Andy Pettitte and David Wells.
