Re: Operation Sports Full Minors '09 - Discussion Thread

Do WakeUNC's updated rosters have different sliders attached to them or something? In the four games that I have played since I downloaded them I have given up no less than eight runs and scored no more than two, and the CPU gets between five and eight doubles per game... maybe I am just unlucky or suddenly suck...

No sliders...I don't think that's possible anyways.

Who are you playing for & against?

Re: Operation Sports Full Minors '09 - Discussion Thread

Three of the games were Red Sox Vs. Rays (with me pitching as Becketet, Lester, and Matsuzaka) and one of the games was Blue Jays Vs. Tigers (Halladay). I took all of my pitchers out of the game before the fifth inning because of performance. Another interesting thing that I found was that Beckett, Lester, and Halladay all had more than twenty pitches in the first inning. Matzusaka actually had a pretty good first inning, but thats it.

Re: Operation Sports Full Minors '09 - Discussion Thread

Hey Knight,

I was wondering if I could ask you for some help with a few CAPs? The first is Casey Kelly, a shortstop for the Red Sox. Here is a link to his scouting report:

http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/events/draft/y2008/reports.jsp?content=kelly

The second is Tanner Scheppers, who was drafted by the Rangers this year. Scouting Report:

http://www.mlb.com/mlb/events/draft/...tent=scheppers

Finally, I was wondering if you could help me out with a Jeff Malm CAP? He was drafted by the Rays this year and had a really outstanding high school career, winning 4 state titles, I believe. Link:

Sorry for all the requests. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Patrick

"Quickies" on Lee and Martin
I gave Martin a little boost from what I would have rated him considering he made the jump to the MLB. If you are going to leave him in the minors in your franchise, you could knock 5 off all is /9. Leave his pitches as is(unless Razr jumps in and suggests a change)

J.D. Martin
26 y.o.
Throws R
Bats R
6'4" 200 lbs

Stamina 64
H/9 60
HR/9 64
K/9 58
BB/9 70

4S 41/68/60
Slider 58/62/52
Curve 29/62/54
Change 16/64/52

You can follow any pitcher for his hit ratings(I don't have much on it)...

Durability can be anywhere in the 80's

Hak-Ju Lee
18 y.o.
SS 6'2" 170 lbs
Throws R
Bats L

Rt Con 54

Disc 56
Clutch 60
Dur 82
Speed 86
Arm Strength 72(he seems to be coming back well off the T.J. surgery)
Arm Acc 70
Reaction 80(he has a rep as a bit of a flash kind of SS...I was tempted to lop off 10 points as he likes to "ramp up" his plays)
Field 76
Br ability 80
Br agg 70

Lee is all about his speed. Right now he's hitting well and could continue, but more than one scout has him as a slap hitter and platoon player. I'll give him a little more benefit because he is so young and doing well at Boise right now.


Startup will have to wait.
For whatever reason, I've been locked out of my insider stuff at my minor league scout website.
Just a mixup(I hope!)....so I'll get something as soon as I can get in.

Nice info on Lee. I read where a scout had him as platoon player because of his slap hitting. Hopefully he works that out, thank god he's only 18.
