      Yeah I believe we were taking about it a few pages back, I like it, it puts you at the mercy of the CPU's terrible trade logic, but it's always interesting, I usually let myself draft my Ace and my Lineup cornerstone I the first 2 picks then let the CPU take over from there... An idea I had last night was to do 30 team control, auto draft, then hold R2 (without looking) on the main screen to pick a random team and run with it... This also allows you to vito any terrible CPU trades in a fantasy draft franchise...

          Some really different players here. I like
          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.

            Sir, any tips? I was going to do that, last night, and I made it 15 rounds, but paying special attention to the Giants because I was going to do my best to control that team, and my team looked like this:

            C- Wieters
            1B - Freeman
            2B - Altuve
            3B - Machado

            SP - Harvey
            SP - Minor
            SP - Bundy

            CL - Kimbrel

            Still had the team ranked 29th out of 30 teams overall. Mission

              Never got the chance to do Fantasy Draft with the newest OSFM Hybrid set. So I gave it a shot, got the 4th pick in the first round and...love my new Fantasy Team. Meet my Minnesota Twins !

                  Definitely prefer fantasy draft, I feel too restricted when using a normal team, in a fantasy draft I can shape the base and direction of my team from the get go... Something I'm goin to try is drafting a win now sort of team, lot of aging players who can still get it done, but also try to give myself a nice farm to replace these guys in the near future... This would go contrary to my usual, draft young for the long run strategy...

                    C-Jarrod Saltalamacchia
                    1B-Paul Goldschmidt
                    2B-Jason Kipnis
                    3B-Lonnie Chisenhall
                    SS-Jed Lowrie
                    LF-Bryce Harper
                    CF-Carlos Gomez
                    RF-Giancarlo Stanton
                    DH-Manny Machado

                    Bench guys: Devin Mesoraco, Casey Kotchman, Gordon Beckham, Albert Almora

                    Bullpen: Bruce Rondon, Addison Reed, Scott Downs, Darren Oliver, Matt Guerrier, Luke Hochevar

                    Stud AAA guys: Zack Wheeler (SP), Danny Hultzen (SP), Dan Straily (SP), Taijuan Walker (SP), Starling Marte (LF), Tony Cingrani (SP), Trevor Story (SS), Zack Cox (3B)

                      DH/Bench/Trade Chisenhall, move Machado back to SS cause he's a beast, move Lowrie to 3B... Given that a lot of your major league talent are young studs you could probably use some that minor league depth to bring in another big bat if you wanted to or maybe even use some of your lesser talent that you haven't stated to sure up the back end of that rotation...

                        Thanks for the input. I am definitely going to try to trade Chisenhall as it gets a little closer to the deadline. I assume the game recognizes his value going up if he performs well before the deadline? Not sure on that one...moving Chisenhall to DH for now is probably a good move. Already has committed a few errors at 3rd. I couldn't believe how much young pitching depth I was able to get. It's going to be hard to work all those guys in!

                          Did a draft yesterday.. Just got the game two days ago. Used the updated online roster. Had the #2 pick in the draft as the Pirates. This is how my team turned out..

                          1.) LF- Melky Cabrera
                          2.) SS- Jean Segura

                          1.) Lincecum
                          2.) Dickey
                          3.) Pettite
                          4.) Pineda
                          5.) Lilly
                          LRP- Luke Hochevar
                          MRP- Nate Jones
                          MRP- Pedro Feliciano
                          MRP- Guillermo Mota

                          Other notable Minor Leaguers : Zach Wheeler, Mike Olt,

                          Only played one game so far... Won 17-1 against the Cubs on the experienced gameplay level.. I'm never really satisfied with teams but this one is by far my favorite one I've ever drafted

                            I normally do fantasy drafts with the OSFM Opening Day roster, but I just did one with the OSFM Hybrid v2.3 roster set. I picked the Minnesota Twins because I love Target Field (my favorite park not named PNC Park) and their jerseys.

                            Sometimes when I go into a fantasy draft I have certain players I want and end up not getting them. Which leaves frustrated with the team I got. That didn't happen with this team and I am really satisfied with the way the team turned out.
