2012 OSFM: Seattle Mariners

Re: 2012 OSFM: Seattle Mariners

Just finished downloading the new rosters and decided to start a franchise. 1st game of spring and The King is averaging about a 97-98 mph fastball consistently. Now I may be mistaken but I remember reading an article where it said he only averaged about an 93.7 FB mph last season? If I'm wrong I apologize.

Edit -Heres the article

No MLB edits have been made yet, and yup, Felix has been topping out at 91 this spring, it seems like he and wedge aren't worried at all though.

The pitch edits usually come in v3 or v4 of the OSFM, can't remember which one, but I've been designated to do it, so I'll definitely get all the changes in there.

He is a master at his craft and I expect nothing but big things from him this year. Us as a team though we have a lot to be optimistic about for a change.

Great work on the roster M's contributors. Now I can go in and edit some of these SCEA guys and start a season. Can't stand watching Anthony Vasquez hitting 93 MPH..

Hey Guys, not to critique right out of the gate, but what happened to Walker and Paxon? I see them in the Google Doc but when I downloaded the rosters I'm not seeing them anywhere, em I missing something?

They are in the single-A roster for me.

Re: 2012 OSFM: Seattle Mariners

Sorry my total apologies, this is my first year playing the show, and I didnt even know there was single A, just used to looking at AAA and AA.

Thanks Again Guys! Ignore my Stupid Post

Yup, happens every year, I think the common thing to do is bump the B+, C+ guys to A's and B's. Even Adding Walker and Paxton to AA doesn't give Jackson the #1 rated rotation. Hate to single this one example out (Sorry Blue Jays guys), but who in their right mind has Syndergaard equal to Walker?

What do you think of the Hultzen and Walker that were put in? Better or Worse? Also, I hope you add back our Erasmo, Luetge, and Kawasaki, since they actually look like them.

Just curious. What would be the easiest way to make Franklin an "A" potential?

Export him and then import him over a different "A" prospect?

The only way would be to recreate him, which is much easier if he has already been created. Here's how:

1. Find a guy with A potential
2. Add him to the Mariners temporarily, name him Nick Franklin, and give him all the same ratings so that in the manage roster screen, they are right next to each other
3. Go back and forth, one at a time, copying each facial feature edit from the original Franklin to the A potential one. It's much easier than you think it would be, I did this for several guys, took about 5 minutes each
4. Bam, you now have A potential Franklin
5. Export A potential Franklin, Reload roster, and import over old one, should be identical, but with A potential

If you think this is too complicated, I'll gladly make an A potential one and post it in the vault - PSN: seanjeezy (shameless plug - i posted all of my face edits for the mariners as well, including Walker and Hultzen. check 'em out, there's a couple who didn't make it into v1, I plan to do more for v2, etc.)

Awesome, I think I can handle that. I'll probably do the same for Paxton as well. Your face edits on walker and Hultzen, do they have the same ratings? So I can just download them from the player vault and swap them in to get the new face?

Probably not, since it looked like Knight tweaked some ratings to have everything run more smoothly, especially Walker, since that is one of the first faces I did so it was based on an earlier set, but it should be easy to change those as well.

I think I like Aroids Walker face better, just give him skin 3.

Not sure why he's got a slider though. I thought they dumped it in instructs after they drafted him. Probably better off with a cutter to be safe.

Didn't care much for their Hultzen though. I think they had his curve as the #2 pitch. I'm not sure he's still throwing it.

For the Muni, Luetge, Erasmo I'll have to compare ratings but I might just swap in SCEA's ratings for them. (Erasmo's repertoire was off so I'll change that)

I had Luetge throwing a bit too hard.

Really? knife to the heart man, knife to the heart

For comparisons sake, I took the liberty of making a direct comparison for anyone who is interested:

Pretty crappy comparison, but its the best I could do...

If the bone structure above the outside of each eye was higher, the one on the left would probably be as close as you could get his face. Which one is yours?
