Why are generated pitchers so short?

Of the dozen or so pitching prospects I drafted in franchise mode, only one of them is over 6foot...every other is either 5'10 or 5'11...seems like this would be easy to fix lol

It is, they are all editable to your liking but I do get where you're coming from in that it would be easier if SDS fixed it. They must have it set using around the average height of males but the Pedro Martinez' and Tim Lincecums of MLB probably should be far and few between.

You can edit generated players heights. I'm just glad the days of generated players looking like bobble heads are over. Every draft class used to be filled with guys who had heads that were huge compared to their bodies.

Also, the equipment is still a bit off. You see the majority of pitchers wearing one long sleeve on their glove side and just other random equipment goofs. The way I handle editing is I edit all rookies on the 40 man roster for myself and whichever team I am playing. This way I don't have to go through the whole darn league at once.
