U&C, I haven't paid much attention to the thread. What all will the roster include?

The roster will be based off the osfm roster with pitch edits, it will have contract fixes, draft picks, up to date transactions and player rerates, including potential edits on some minor leaugers.
Scott is using an excel spreadsheet with established formulas to translate ZiPS(u) into player ratings. Thus, it will take the preseason ZiPS projections and make small adjustments based on how players are doing this season.
It will just correct for the projected ratings which were a little too far off. For instance, ZiPS seemed to love Brad Emaus and Millone, rating them better than it should have...ZiPS(u) corrects that and others such as Adam Dunn (still a walk, strikeout, HR guy but hitting .210 instead of .175, estimates).

Is he re-rating Minor League players?

I'm leaning towards using his roster and starting with it. I'll have to see it first. Until then, I'll hold off on my chise. Hopefully it comes out tomorrow.

Since Scott said he won't have his roster done soon, I am just going to start my Franchise with the rosters available. I have waited far too long and done too many test franchises to wait any longer. I have the perfect sliders on AS and a solid roster. I am going to post every box score of the games so you guys can see how these sliders will balance out stats the farther you get into your franchise. I know IL4T didn't believe me when I said you may start out hitting or pitching unreal, but on AS the stats will catch up with you, balancing them out. Live and I have worked very hard on these sets and truly believe that we have found the perfect set, not a homerun hitting happy slider set where it's all homeruns leading to runs. We have a great following and I thank you guys for all the input and feedback you have given us.

Smart idea! I told you the whole time that you shouldn't restart. Once I finish my Blue Jays chise, I will be starting a new Brewers franchise as well.

Re: ILiveForThis and authentic's MLB Simulation Slider Project 2012

My 2nd game with AS went well. Played the Braves again and won 6-3. Both teams had 11 hits. Mike Leake went 6, giving up 1 run on 3 hits. Finally had a 2 home run game, first time since the middle of April, and I'm at the end of May. The only problem is my power went out before I got to save my game. I was sooo pissed, now I'll have to attempt to beat them again!

I may, or may not, post my June recap today for my Blue Jays chise. I want to get it finished before I dive into an extensive Brewers chise. But, I'll let you guys know!

Re: ILiveForThis and authentic's MLB Simulation Slider Project 2012

Couldn't play a game tonight. Exhausted from work and golf. I'll get one in tomorrow though.

Re: ILiveForThis and authentic's MLB Simulation Slider Project 2012

I played my last game of June, a 11-13 defeat to the Red Sox, in my Blue Jays franchise. I am gonna play till the ASG then give my statistical update. Should be fun..

Re: ILiveForThis and authentic's MLB Simulation Slider Project 2012

I think its just a little too easy to hit in my opinion.. but i do like everything else. Great work on making these tough!

How many games have you played? It takes time, and your hitting will even out. Only got 3 hits in my last game, but did win 2-0.

I'm glad you're liking them but I would love more input than just 'I think its just too easy to hit'. A difficulty, slider set and which stats are being too frequent'ed would go a long way in how to fix our sets for the better.

As crains said, the stats should even out. I am going at a .323 clip for my team through April. As for May? So far, in 9 games, .202. Yeah, it's cray.
