OSFM 2013: New York Mets

Re: OSFM 2013: New York Mets

Cool man. I can wait, like I said I'm still in hockey mode so I can finish NHL '13 franchise mode while I wait for the rosters. I agree, Wheeler may be a little high at 86. I think he will be a great pitcher, but right now I wouldn't have him as the 3rd best pitcher given that Marcum and Niese are in the majors and I feel more comfortable right now with them starting over the likes of Wheeler in real life.

Re: OSFM 2013: New York Mets

I did two years of sims with my roster to see how the ratings would pan out since I feel they are a little high even though im using Knights charts, and it wasnt as bad as I thought but you would have better insight in that. I need to scale the pitchers back a bit but the position players look good

Wheeler 22 yo (A pot.) 86 to 92 to 96
Syndergaard 20 yo (A pot) 74 to 79 to 85

d'Arnaud 24 yo (A pot.) went from 79 to 83 to 87
Plawecki 22 yo (C pot.) 66 to 70 to 73
Nimmo 19 yo (A pot.) grew from 61 to 66 to 71
Flores 22 yo (B pot.) 70 to 74 to 77
Puello 22 yo (B pot.) 65 to 68 to 72
Cecchini 19 yo (C pot.) 58 to 62 to 66
Lagares 23 yo (C pot.) 59 to 62 to 65

I rated them based on years away meaning years to their prime. Which I did 26 for position players and 26-27 for pitchers

This was all using the 'End Spring Training' trick (not simming ST)

I am going to fix the current pitchers in the roster's ratings tonight to bring them all down a bit and then tomorrow i'll do ratings for Rafael Montero, Domingo Tapia, Jacob DeGrom and some position players

seems pretty realistic to me! Wheeler could be one of the best in the game in two years! well we can hope anyway!

Cecchini is a C pot?? My Gavin C was a B? Didn't you use mine?

[metsfan4life1]

Re: OSFM 2013: New York Mets

He's in Single A i believe

I wouldn't start a franchise right away if you plan on playing for more than 2 years, the position players are fine but the pitchers are rated a bit too high for my tastes and they progress a little too soon

But if you just wanna play around for a year or two it wouldnt be that bad

Thanks! I feel the faces are pretty accurate! BUT.. Some are a little off:/ I try. I've updated Fulmer and Gorski if you'd like the newest versions of them( face and motion wise) they look much better.

oops mistype

how does giving potentials work? is there a limit we have in terms of A's and B's? is there a list? I was thinking Wilmer Flores might be A material but I know dAnaurd and Syndergaard and Wheeler got A's

I think i woulda put Flores A Syndergaard B if it was up to me

Your faces are great, I think Wheeler is perfect!

Ratings updates are now on the Roster vault things are all squared up, should behave better in the long run. Working on DeGrom now

The progression is more dynamic/random this year I hope we keep this thread going after OSFM is out i'd like to hear how peoples franchises are going and who is performing well etc

Thanks Brian! means a lot! And I think Wheeler looks really good! His head shape though isn't how I want it.. His face is longer in real life but I can't choose a different head as I'm not going to create more work. It's nothing huge but if I had his head shape perfect he'd look amazing!

Re: OSFM 2013: New York Mets

I was thinking. How many A/AA/AAA SP's do we have total? we only have room for 15, less really since some of the guys were already created so maybe 10-12 spots and I know i've seen we have lots of pitching prospects do we have room for them all and if not who should the starters be?

We def have room for them all! I dont think there is a limit? If there is we could always move(edit their positions) German, Hefner, Schwinden, Laffey even Robles to RPs keeping there stamina the same. Some will end up being Long relief\swingmen in real life anyway. Don't worry about it until there is a problem. I will play with it and see if there are any limit issues.

15 is the Minimum for starting pitchers. 45 total pitchers is probably the Max if I remember from last year.

Re: OSFM 2013: New York Mets

Good morning mets fans!

I have the roster setup as best I can to assume to opening day lineups without injuries except for Frank Francisco and Tim Byrdak being in AAA. Heres our rotations:

Majors
Johan
Niese
Marcum
Harvey
Gee

AAA
Wheeler
Hefner
Mejia
Schwinden
Laffey

AA
Syndergaard
Robles
Germen
Mchugh
Degrom

A
?
?
?
?

The way the A level works is wierd. You cant set lineups/rotations and you only have 15 players. There are no requirements to what kind of A level players so technicially I think we could put any extra SPs down there. I assume it doesn't affect sim stats, in franchise you can see their current season stats in A but you cant see boxscores or anything. Right now Brandon Nimmo and Gavin Cecchini are in A so there are 13 more spots for whoever.

The MLB level and AAA level bullpens are full with created players. AA has all 7 open spots in the bullpen. I am going to work on RPs soon probably today.

The other thing I did was put Wilmer Flores at AAA starting 2B, and Reese Havens on the bench. Where do you guys think they should be starting for AA or the setup I have now? If I have either of them down then we need to create another AAA player or two, but currently we have them all created we will have to wait and see who will be used as backups in real life AAA

I wouldn't wanna switch any SP's to RP's except for Aaaron Laffey. Im not sure how we are gonna use him I was thinking he will be a RP guy this year for us, thats what he is listed as on MLBDepthCharts site but i have him as the 5th AAA starter for now

Re: OSFM 2013: New York Mets

Just added Darin Gorski SP to AA along with Rafael Montero SP and Domingo Tapia SP to A. On the Roster vault as 'Mets OSFM WIP Roster' uploaded by BrianUdz

I have my fantasy baseball draft at 4 PM so prob no more updates today unless I get the itch late

Re: OSFM 2013: New York Mets

Only fourteen more Fake players in the mets organization.. I've done 30 players up until this point.. Damn.. With Knight Doing some of the double A players... We could be done by this time next week.. I will be doing Phillip Evans, Matt Renyolds and German Rosiaro next.. Things are getting really close With Brian doing the ratings.. The mets OSFM set is about 65-75% done! After knight is done.. I'll see if I can get those players onto my set with my players (with the ratings) and edit all the MLB mets players gear up to date and release a mets roster with all this for those who just use the mets full minors. Thanks for all your help and insights.
