Cubs 2014 OSFM

Re: Cubs 2014 OSFM

Yeah, got that. I based the depth chart I posted on that. Still waiting on Iowa.

The list you copied from the right side is the player numbers which is missing a few players and the coaches are listed there as well.

Ok, saw you had mentioned Daytona but didn't see a mention of Tennessee so I thought I'd share just in case.

No, go ahead. I miss plenty of transaction news. Especially this week since I'll be out of town.

Re: Cubs 2014 OSFM

Can you guys take a look at OSFM 13 and see if there are any faces in there that you would like to see improved or updated? I'm going to be copying over the MLB 13 faces, the ones that were from OSFM 12 were imported into OSFM 13, so those I already have copied to my template, but we can tweak those as well if needed.

Also if you want to make any faces let me know or you can just make them if you want. I can always transfer them from the vault or you can use the template I made. The MLB 14 editor has more XY coordinates on the grid, but it'll still transfer the same if you get it in about the right spot.

Found a roster from fdr216, assuming its your's. Some of the faces look good.

Some of the ones I looked at on your roster though look like other's I've seen on the vault (i.e. Bryant). Did you collect the faces from the vault/OSFM or did you create them all?

Re: Cubs 2014 OSFM

Iowa's posted their roster:

Rotation:
Rusin
Pimental
Hendricks
Jokisch
Wada

Bullpen:
Parker (CP)
Coleman
Hatley
Mateo
Negrin
Rosscup
Ramirez
Sanchez

C:
Whiteside
Flores

IF:
Baez
Alcantara
Villanueva
Watkins
Anderson
Valaika

OF:
Jackson
Vitters
Szczur
Coghlan

Also, I would just like to throw in that I'm in agreement with the other poster who said I'd like to see Iowa as close to the real thing as possible. It's my personal opinion that if you load up the minors with too many high potential prospects then you create an over abundance of major league talent a few year into the franchise. Luckily with the Cubs this year it's not like years past as there's quality prospects at all the levels and not just the lower levels.

Re: Cubs 2014 OSFM

I uploaded a Mike Olt and Ryan Kalish to the player vault with their MLB 13 ratings under username SideEffect34. Edited their equipment and tried my best on their stances. I created them on the Vita so couldn't work with much on the face. If anyone wants to re-edit the face, feel free! Should hold me over until they're added in the live roster next week.

I also created Brandon Guyer for the Rays with '13 ratings.

Re: Cubs 2014 OSFM

I believe Olt's stance from is in the game under the Veteran's section. I'm not in front of PS3 but i will post what number it is tonight. Also for anyone interested B Jackson's stance is in the game as well. I'll post it tonight also.

Kalish's stance from OSFM last year was Olivo's. Not sure how accurate that is this year but it's a start.

FYI, Olt's stance from last year is 112 and Jackson's is 67

Re: Cubs 2014 OSFM

MrOldBoy I took a look at your list and I like what I see. I believe that Stephen Bruno and Dan Lockhart should definitely make it in. Bruno's been plagued by injuries and his numbers, when healthy, are very good. Also just wondering if Anthony Giansanti would have a chance at making OSFM, didn't see him on the list

Re: Cubs 2014 OSFM

Alberto Cabrera will be in AAA after clearing waivers.

[OhioCub]

Re: Cubs 2014 OSFM

Ok, I compared the actual rosters with what you have in your depth chart and came up with this. It's 92 players (if I counted correctly). Obviously 2 will need to be removed. I've never worked on OSFM so I don't know the rules but if you're able to delete (or release) any SCEA guys I would get rid of Casper Wells and Darnell McDonald since they're just roster fill and in extended spring training anyway. If you're unable to do that then just pick 2. Obviously, this is just my list and just me trying to help out, there may be guys I missed or somethings you maybe disagree with.

Re: Cubs 2014 OSFM

Also, I forgot to mention. I'd like to see one more catcher in their for depth in case of an injury (should always have 2 on each of the 3 active rosters) but just couldn't seem to fit in Krist. Maybe you can think of a way to get him in there, if not, should we run into an injury in franchise we'll just have to sign a free agent.

Why not Cael Brockmeyer for catcher. He was drafted last year in the 16th round and managed to work his way to AAA before the season ended. He is back down to Boise for development, but he has decent potential as a C/1B. The other one I am pretty high on is Danny Canela. He was signed out of an independant league. He was a pretty highly regarded prospect a NC state before he dropped out and he has a lot of potential. I personally would rather have these two than almost all of the catchers in the Cubs system, as far as I am concerned they are all just filler.

Re: Cubs 2014 OSFM

MrOldBoy,

Do you have a list of all the players yet that you will be doing for the OSFM roster? I am very curious to see who all will be there.

I don't really care who the additional catcher is, I was simply going off his depth chart. My point was that it'd be nice to squeeze one more catcher in there.
