Re: MLB 2012 - 1996 Classic Roster Project

Hey man sorry to keep posting like this but noticed some other things.

The Mets,Marlins,Expos,Cardinals,Astros,Pirates,Padres ,and Dodgers have the same issue as the Braves with only 24 players, also not as big a problem just bringing to your attention in case it just slipped past you but the Reds also have 26 players.

Keep up the good work man!!

Haha, don't worry about it. Sadly, I noticed the same problem a week or so back with the AL teams too. When I played a game, I noticed I am one RP short on each team. I will address this along with some other things like some numbers that got changed by accident, most notably Frank Thomas. Really though, I want these to be enjoyed, so feel free to add anything you find. I'll explain why a few other things are the way they are when I finish the NL. Thanks for thr support though man. Appreciate it.

Hey Baumy,

Will definately try these tonight. You have moved pretty quick with these, Great Job, like I said with an earlier post, may play as the Indians, as this was the start of some long painful years for us Detroit Tiger Fans.

Oh I feel your pain. My Twins were in the same boat. The Tigers have some good bats though in the roster. A lot of guys had a great year in 96. Hope you enjoy using them.

Hey baumy, I played a couple games with your preview set a couple days ago and really enjoyed it. I DL'd the full AL last night and plan on getting a game in on the Vita during lunch. Keep up the good work!

Sweet man. Hope they play well for you.

Also, before someone points out that that Kent Mercker, Rick Aguilera, etc... were not SP's, I decided to use them as such. I did this for a few teams to fill a SP spot, normally with a RP who pitched more than 100+ innings. Not perfect, I know, but this way the guys that played the most during that year are in the game and not some dude who was on for opening day and sent down after 20 games

Got a game in on the Vita at lunch - Rangers @ Orioles (me). Good game, won 6-1 as I hit 6 doubles and 2 homeruns. Funny thing is I've been struggling at the plate on the Vita and then I just erupted this game. Of course it helped hitting against one of those terrible Rangers' staffs that always plagued them. Mussina went 8+ for me, giving up the 1 run on 4 hits with 2 walks and 5 K's. Alomar and Hammonds both homered, with Hammonds hitting a 3R shot. Texas got their lone run off a Juan Gonzalez RBI-single.

Had lots of fun and will definitely be playing more with these. I just hate that the Vita jacks up a lot of the edited faces, but no more than you see them up close on the Vita I can overlook it.

Awesome. You are going to love the Rockies in this set. I have nothing but love for the Big Cat. Even already created and uploaded him if you look under Colorado.

Right on. Moose is filthy on there. That knuckle-curve is a hitters kryptonite. Sounded like a fun game.

are these all 1 roster or are they separate by team if they are separate how do I merge rosters

It's one roster with all AL teams their '96 counterpart. Just DL and go.

Re: MLB 2012 - 1996 Classic Roster Project

I have a few players left on Atlanta, which was just a blast to create, and then I am moving on to either Chicago or Colorado. I was able to get Glavine, Smoltz, and Maddux faces from the vault. Good work to those who created them!

Re: MLB 2012 - 1996 Classic Roster Project

The AL version up on the vault is great. I got my butt handed to me by Randy Johnson (I was the Orioles), losing 2-0. Funny thing was I actually was picking up Johnson's fastball OK; it was that slider that was just straight nasty.

Thanks for doing this! I'm really looking forward to the '96 Mets and Lance Johnson...

Where did you get the pitch attributes from?

Was playing against David Cone and it was almost impossible to hit him cause he was throwing 99 mph fastballs and a huge 75 mph curveball.

Right on man. If I remember right, his slider was his big knockout pitch. Other than his monster fastball of course. Glad you like them.

Played my first game with these rosters last night, and boy was it great to play with some of these guys again.

It was Indians (CPU) vs Mariners (ME) with Charles Nagy facing off against Randy Johnson, which I lost 1-0. Let me just say this...Nagy had me fooled all night with that off speed garbage of his...I also didn't pitch as well as I had hoped with Johnson either, as I only struck out 3 with him, while Nagy struck me out 8 times through 6.

The lone run was scored when Manny Ramirez shot a hanging slider from Johnson over the second baseman's head, which allowed I think Thome to come around and score from 2nd.

After the Indians pulled Nagy in the 7th, I had to face Shuey in the 7th, Plunk in the 8th, and then Jose Mesa finished me off for the save, and to end the game got Griffey Jr to strike out for his 4th time of the game (OUCH!)

Line Score:
CLE: 0/0/0/0/1/0/0/0/0 1/5/0
SEA: 0/0/0/0/0/0/0/0/0 0/6/1

Ouch! Griffey wore the sombrero eh? It looks like it was a close game, but you know how it goes. Let me know if you have a rematch. I guarantee KG24 wont do that again!

Right now, I have got nothing for the speed attributes. Some are just educated guesses, and some for guys like Johnson, Cone, etc... are just from memory.

I remember Cone just having a killer fastball with a lot of speed. I had it at 97 but have since toned it down to around 95-96.
