    Im not disagreeing but make some suggestions and they will probably be used. I'll be making a fictional roster as well, maybe I'll use your suggestions too.

      Yeah I guess i didn't really see a problem with latino names... But i agree, it'sfine to criticize but without offering more input it doesn't do much help. I'd like to see suggestions for when i carry over this roster into 2014.
      I play sports games and spend way too much time making rosters.

          You really want full audio for the names when you make a fictional roster at least I do. It's cool to hear the players named and not just hear number 23 or whatever. Currently about 28% of the players in MLB are Hispanic or Latin so those will be the names you hear.

            The player generator I work with I used only names from the game, and then assign them to different lists to generate depending on ethnicity. Its not meant to be sterotypical or whatever but sometimes it happens. I agree my main concern is getting all players to have real audio for names that are pretty realistic. My own fictional roster is my main goal for MLB 14 this year.

              How are you doing this?

              I mean are you literally creating each player from scratch?
              Are you over-writing real MLB players?
              Are you keeping any SCEA stock players?

                Typically you overwrite every single mlb and minor league player with a basic template and then create players from there. If you want it to be accurate, it is best to use data and mathematical formulae to get an accurate ratio of ethnicity, age, and skill at each positions. For example, I have a formula designed using data of the ratio of different ethnicities in the mlb. Each player goes through this probability formula before creation in order to determine his ethnicity.

                  Absolutely no offense intended to anyone, but I couldn't care less about ethnicity.
                  They could all be Chinese for all I care. I just want a roster where I can start my franchise without the prejudice of real player names and attributes.
                  I like King's roster from MLB13. I used that as my base and made minor name and equipment edits. But I really don't care about anything else. It's just not important to me.

                  But thank you for the over-writing suggestion.

                    I was merely using that as an example to show the great amount of detail we go through with these. As I said, I will be working with king on this year's rosters... I hope you look forward to playing with them

                        Yes every player from scratch, over-writing all real players with no stock players. Only thing may be player models because I I suck at faces lol

                        So for me I have a massive spread sheet already set up. Im waiting to do some simming with the new game to nail down any changes in progression or pitching attributes..OR if they add in pitching splits.
                        But I have already set up how many of each ethnicity at each position I want and how many of each position.

                        SO then I have a generator that spits out a bio based on the player role I select for position players, bench, starters and relievers. I have a depth chart set up where you select the type of hitter, type of fielder and type of baserunner, potential and level (MLB, Rookie, AAA or AA).

                        This info generates in a 25 man roster per level that shows height, weight, age, bat/throw and all the ratings based on all the previous info..its basically meant to be set up so that you dont get unrealistic players based off of their bio info. also pumps out a name based on the ethnicity that only draws from names in the MLB The Show database.

                        I'll be making 2 sets.

                        One of the sets is for RTTS, I will make a well rounded league..average teams, rebuilds, perpetual losers, perennial playoff types just like todays league..and one for franchise where I start with a team of all C, D and F players for a entire organization rebuild and now that we can carry over franchise files..Im excited.

                          Bob would you be willing to share that spreadsheet with the generator?
                          Please?

                              How is the application for MLB14 any different than the application for MLB13?
                              Or do you not know yet?

                                I have formulas to write once I get my hands on the new game. plus Im hoping they make adjustments to the progression system and tonnes of other tweaks we all hope for.
