    They are definately making strides in the right direction. I do feel though that there could be much more movement of fastballs.

      I usually play as the Astros and saw that Carlos Pena has a 99 in plate discipline. For you guys who know who he is, you know that is not true. He strikes out a whole bunch.

        I'm certainly not disagreeing that it should be reduced, but I believe plate discipline corresponds more to walks. I think plate vision is what correlates to strike outs.

          I am not looking for perfection here, but post any edits for ratings or pitch edits/pitch speeds that you think should be right. For example, I feel that Justin Verlanders fastball should be a running fastball instead of a 4-seam.

          I am also going to give Quinton Barry a bump in speed and baserunning ability.

          Knight and the crew do an awesome job on the rosters, makes the game so much more enjoyable for franchise. I am so looking forward to starting my franchise soon!

          Again, I am not looking for perfection, just maybe some opinions. Also, there is another thread for batting stances, and deliveries. Just looking for ratings and pitch edits. Thank You.
          If you are familiar with the fan ratings over at Fangraphs I consolidated all of the ratings and applied them to a scale where the highest rating got a 99. The tabs at the bottom are self explanatory, but I would stick to the first two...

          Really late response but he has a 30 point split in the minors (2011-2012, only years tracked here) which is pretty much the standard split for lefties anyway...

            True. I will lower that and see what his vision is. I do know he strikes out though so 99 for disc is way too much.

              Vision deals with K's while disc. deals with walks. Pena should have around 30-40 vision. He does take tons of walks so his disc. will be very high. Go check out Dunn. I bet its the same thing

                thanks sooo much for all your work sean.

                you have covered reaction, speed, arm strength, and arm accuracy.

                how about fielding ability? does "hands" correspond to fielding ability? or a combination of hands and first step?

                thanks.

                    That looks stellar. The only comment I would make for the Mets is that Ike Davis had terrible defense due to an ankle injury in 2012, but in 2011 was one of the best defensive 1B in the league. He was moving much better in spring trraining this year so his 2011 are probably more accurate

                      Alright i'll go look. Ya I saw that Pean takes a lot of walks so your right, the rating might be right.

                        Do not forget before you start your franchise to up the velocity on Craig Kimbrals 2 seam fastball.

                          Not a base edit, but Kevin Gausman's FB is set at 92 mph, when it should be ~ 96.

                          Nate McLouth should have his contact bumped way up. No way he is only a 63 overall.

                            I understand these are Fans Scouting Reports, but are you really going to give guys like Coco and Pierre 0s or 1s for arm strength?

                              I'm just speculating but I think people have mentioned velocity increases as players progress as well. That may have been the reasoning for the 92mph. If you set him to 96 now he may progress too much in that area.

                                Evan Gattis was given a 0 for his blocking rating for the Braves on OSFM; so does Eddy Rodriguez for San Diego.

                                Edit: Catcher Spencer Kieboom for Washington has 0 blocking also.

                                Zach Wright for LA Angels has 0 blocking as well.
