Re: Operation Sports Full Minors '09 - Discussion Thread

Oh and another thing you guys will like. Rod_Carew29 sent me his franchise file and gave me permission to go through that and use what I want from it in my pitch edits. So some pitchers will have complete overhauls because according to rod and some footage that I saw were wrong and others will be more accurate. Sinkerballers will also get a 2-seamer to go high with if they do go high in real life. You guys are going to like this. And for the guys that weren't going to use the pitch edit one I'd strongly suggest that you check this one out before you decide not to. It's going to be great.

Re: Operation Sports Full Minors '09 - Discussion Thread

I'm not sure if i should mention it here, I don't know if you already know about the players doesn't belong to teams or not in the minors levels that is. But I'm gonna list the Jays that I have noticed so far

RP - Mike Macdonald - Should be in Salt Lake, as a SP
RP - Rick Bauer - FA
1B - Chip Cannon - Was on Montgomery but got released so off to FA
3B - Andrew Pinckney - FA
LF - Ryan Patterson and Eric Nielsen - FA
CF - Aaron Matthews should be Mathews (with one T)

As well as some players, I'm not sure if they're still under the Jays as I can't seem to find them in the MILB site, so if they're still under the jays prospect, leave it as is

C- Hee Seop Min
1B - Jacob Butler

Just thought I'd help out, but if you already knew all that, ignore this message

pm knight. He looks at those for changes.

Re: Operation Sports Full Minors '09 - Discussion Thread

Knight, I was thinking you could swap Carlos Mendoza, who is on the triple-A roster as a backup third baseman, for Matt Cusick, who is primarily a second baseman. Please let me know if you need anymore information. Thanks again for all of your hard work on these rosters.

Re: Operation Sports Full Minors '09 - Discussion Thread

Knight, I've got something I've been wondering about awhile. A lot of the Reds top prospects seemed to get ratings of C and D potential. I can edit the attributes, but there's nothing I can do about editing potential. Is there some possibility you can make some changes in the prospects potential in the final roster set?

Quick question Razr...

Are any of these going to have the stamina edits for pitchers (like maybe Knight's personal edits version)? Or are you going to release one with them?

If it's been asked and answered already, I apologize. I've been loosely following, but this thread (and the one before it) has been moving so fast...lol.

the stamina edits will be the last thing before knight's personal edits.

Re: Operation Sports Full Minors '09 - Discussion Thread

Also, the Yankees recently released Humberto Sanchez, who was a pitcher for their triple-A team. I'm not sure if that affects the changes you can make to the Yankees roster or not. Thanks again!

Excellent, thanks!

Razr, or anyone that has played a lot with Razr's pitch edits. Will the CPU pitchers throw 2 seamers high often enough (when they "should")? I haven't played enough to say for sure, but that is one concern of mine.

As a former pitcher, we always used our 4 seamers to throw high fastballs due to 2 seam movement, and the greater accuracy of a 4 seamer (for most of us).

I haven't played enough to tell about the CPU but you can definatly go high with a 2 seam as a user. When I played the cpu did go high with 2 seams on me a few times. I'll let you judge how much is enough.

What did the guys with 6-7 in of break on their 4 seamers do to go high?

Trying to hit now is a lot tougher as it's easier to hit a 4-seamer than a running FB or a 2-seamer. However, w/pitchers that primarily throw 2-seamers in real life - the only time they go high is to brush off a batter or if they want to be hit deep :wink:. Throwing it is still pretty simple, you just have to judge the break a bit different.

To answer your question, Dr, they throw it the same as a 4-seamer so they go up, down, inside, outside...no difference.

Good. I added some fastballs that pitchers throw with various movement so that you'll have stuff to go everywhere with if they actually do in real life. This might make it even harder to hit because if you are expecting one type of fastball it may be another.

I'm glad that turned out well.

I didn't care too much for the running FB and you've definately added to that dislike. I was doing faily well on legend difficulty but not anymore...I almost got no-hit by Wainwright last nite.:wink:
