    MLB The Show Fantasy Draft House Rules

    Hey all, I find that it's way too easy to draft in the fantasy drafts with the CPU not being very logical. Anybody have any strict house rules I could implement for a fantasy draft franchise?

    What do you find too easy? Answering that question may guide you to appropriate house rules.

    A couple of things you could try are limiting the number of top prospects you can pick and giving yourself a salary floor (need contracts in excess of some amount so your team isn't so nimble/easy to trade). You could also set a quota of age 30+ players that you have to draft.

      This is about the only thing I sort of try to do, but then again, if I pick a team of young stars-that-might-be... I'll have a rough year most like (so challenge of dealing with a tough season), and then later, I might be in contract/arbitration hell.

      In OSFM, some guys with the top prospect sticker I really don't like in terms of their current development, so the CPU got them and if I'm wrong (and I have been before), they'll get good young talents.

      But, I really don't limit myself in draft. There's enough challenges in running a franchise where I feel like I don't really need to handicap myself.

        It's too easy to get value picks. You'll find guys like Joc Pederson way late. Good ideas. I've also tried drafting where ever it suggests I need to draft. So If it wants to me to grab a CP that's what I have to do...
