    Re: Official MLB The Show 17 Fantasy Draft Franchise Progress Thread

    I decided to Quick Manage / Critical Situations & play a few key series in order to get to a point where my team had moved forward a bit. With that said, we have started up the play every game portion here at June 23rd, with a 17 game stretch with no off days. Heres the stats for the team up to this point:

    46-27 1st Place AL East

    It seems the common theme for the Sox has been get on base, and crank one out of the park. There is little to no speed on this team, and there are plenty of position players struggling. As we creep closer to the mid-way point of the season there are some aspects of the team that will have special attention paid towards them.

    Bench / Speed The only player on the bench that has produced has been back up catcher John Hicks. A trade may very well be made before the trade deadline in order to shore up this weak spot.

    Bullpen The back end of the pen has been nothing short of fantastic. Matt Bowman and Sam Freeman have had their struggles, but have pitched better as of late. With a comfortable lead in the division the Sox may stand pat and let them figure it out. With that said, Dustin McGowan and the Major League Saves Leader, Fernando Rodney, are sure to regress. Rumor has it the Sox have had trade talks with the Giants regarding Left-Hander Brad Hand. Only time will tell.

    Rotation
    After a rough April, Buck Farmer has shown signs of putting it together, seeing his ERA fall from the high 7's to where it sits now. Derek Holland has been the surprise of the season, and the Sox couldn't be happier with their 5th starters production.

    Awards Races

    Cody Bellinger is in 2nd place for the American League race for Rookie Of The Year, behind the Angles Aaron Judge.
    Fernando Rodney leads the AL race for Reliever Of The Year (with almost twice as many saves as his closest competition)

                Oh just wait to run into Woody Kellers crew with Clyde Washington, Summersgil and Woody himself.

                Oh holy hell are they a group of keystone cops calling balls and strikes!!!! But I love it. Just love the individual ump personalities.

                  Ill keep an eye open for them. Would love to log some characteristics and wild calls from all the umpire crews.

                  Fantasy drafted and played ab 8 regular season games before abandoning it and starting my keeper franchise.

                  I could spend a month contemplating a strategy to draft for , a stadium that benefits the strategy , coaches , unis , utility infielder and utility outfielder etc. And I always end up with the StLouis Cardinals. This year i couldnt fire Matheny and hire Jose Oquendo as my manager. So im stuck with Mathenys mug for at least 162 games.

                  The players are almost the same team I have been drafting for a few years. My fav Jay Bruce is left off the roster this year. His swing is too all or nothin for me this year.

                  I have 2 Spring training games in and will be revealing the roster when we break camp

                  Ps
                  I do have Jose Ramirez. So instead of we are a little more :/ this year lol

                    Re: Official MLB The Show 17 Fantasy Draft Franchise Progress Thread

                    Soo after a looong draft process (3 hours on a Sunday) I culminated talent and went to the Grapefruit League to let the spots sort themselves. I will be playing button Veteran hitting, Allstar Meter Pitching , with Armor and Swords Sliders. Sliders will adjust as needed to keep games competitive. Although with hitting I like to know I have a chance as long as I make good abs. So Veteran will prolly stay with Sliders accommodating. Salary Cap ON.

                    2 trades were made. Alex Bregman for Jose Ramirez and Addison Russell for Keon Broxton. Bregman is a top notch player/potential/contract but I levelled my playing field to make things less comfortable.

                      This is a really nice looking squad 3fiddy. Young pitching staff, but you have a lot of talent that will keep you in a lot of games. Defense looks very stout too. What a nice OF you have.

                      Harper was my #3 overall pick back on MLB 16 for my Fantasy Cardinals franchise which just concluded year 2 losing in 7 games in the NLCS vs The eventual WS champions Atlanta Braves.

                        ^^^^^
                        Thanks ! Thats the truth , my staff is very young and should be a challenge to manage. Dont want a cakewalk

                        First series of the year I swept. Game 2 I won 2-1 and endured a stretch of about 15 innings between games 2&3 with 1 run scored.

                        Second series against the Reds Alex Bregman beats me in Game 1 with a 3 run tater in the 8th to take the lead 6-4. Just traded him and he claps back with a winner. How sweet that was

                        Game 2 against the Reds tn ! MLB Network Broadcast lol

                          Sadly both my franchises are dead until I can find MLB16 for PS4 for cheap (not paying $20 for a year old game when I got this game for $12...)

                          Sad it can't take PS3 franchises into PS4...


                          But anyway - starting a new Rockies fantasy draft.


                          Here's the roster (season just started):


                          Rotation:

                          4. Shohei Ohtani
                          5. Tyler Glasnow


                          Bullpen:
                          LR Zach Efflin
                          MR Will Smith
                          MR Michael Feliz
                          MR Josh Hader
                          SU Andrew Miller
                          SU Dellin Betances
                          CP Arodys Vizcaino

                            Did my first ever fantasy draft after reading through this post. Playing some spring training to get my eye and timing back. Plan on opening day Tomorrow or Thursday. Let me know how the team looks. I had the 10th pick and Harper was still available. I was blown away! Tried to balance between win now and build for future.

                              Are you left handed ?! Cause this team is ! Gonna kill righties. Even Dallas K and Cole Hamels lefty. The middle infield is gonna be fast. Very few slow rollers making base hits. Should be alot of hits going around for your squad too.

                              Are your base stealings mechanics sound ?!?! It would be wrong to not be working Trea Turner and Dee Gordon on the basepaths. Make sure you wear the Cardinal Blues and play, "Whitey Ball" at least 1 game of the grueling 162

                              Good team ! Good luck !
                              I play MLB exclusively with my cousin. Usually looking for info on Franchises. We played minor league baseball as 9-10 YOs on the Zephyrs.

                                Thanks! I have never done a Fantasy Draft but had a blast with this one! In spring training now and loving the fact we have young guns and a veteran presence. Cant wait for opening day!
