2015 OSFM REVISION ROSTER v1 - Released

Re: 2015 OSFM REVISION ROSTER v1 - Released

I think they're pretty spot on. Relievers are meant to be erratic. There's only a handful of elite, automatic guys out there, and even they choke from time to time. Makes you miss Mariano Rivera, but it's the truth.

Sure erratic but not this bad. I have had to do tons of editing. I just think its way to inconsistent throughout the roster. Some rosters are done to extreme others are barely touched. Starters are just as bad. Guys that are having success in the big league rotations can be found as low in the 60's. The elite should be elite. But all these veterans are going to be pushed out by prospect pitchers as soon as you enter dynasty.

Question, and this is probably the fault of whoever made the Cardinals OSFM, where is Alex Reyes? He's a top 100 prospect and the second or third prospect on the Cardinals, and he isn't even in the game. I haven't checked out a lot yet, super tired after starting the franchise, but if he is indeed missing, that's a pretty glaring error and makes me worried about other things as well.

Looking at it now, I don't see Luke Weaver, Magneuris Sierra, both top ten STL prospects, or a good number of the other top 20 for STL.

They are probably in the free agent slots. Check there.

Luke Weaver is actually on there but Jack Flaherty is not. Weaver may have been picked before him in the draft last year but that was purely strategic. Like when Angels picked Grichuk before Trout.

Re: 2015 OSFM REVISION ROSTER v1 - Released

So if I do a fantasy draft though, then a player search, Reyes wasn't there. Not at the ps3 for the rest of the night, I'll look some more tomorrow.

This might be a reason why

Its the Show; many are invited but few are chosen.

The entire game is pitching strong which is why pitchers took a drop all around. And really young arms are pushing vets out in real life right now, teams want fresh young arms instead of retreads. It has been tested and works out pretty good in game.

First off those players were rated very aggressively in the OSFM, which made them easy targets to take out, secondly I had to remove younger prospects to accommodate other players that were missing from the roster. STL was a team that was very prospect laden created team, which created a ton of work for me, any player lower than High A ball unless they were having a great year was removed. You can just take the players you want from the OSFM v1 or v2 roster and import them in.

Also while I don't plan to start a heavy debate here about prospects and what they become, this is the STL top 10 from 2005

Anthony Reyes
Adam Wainwright
Blake Hawksworth
Chris Lambert
Stu Pomeranz
Brad Thompson
Brendan Ryan
Chris Duncan
Cody Hearther
Carmen Cali

Out of the Top 30 that year aside from Wainwright and Ryan, Skip Schumaker (20) was the only other player to get to the majors and stay.

Prospects are fun to prognosticate about but really only about 10% of them out of the entire BA guide ever come close to what their potential is listed as. As well, with the new progression system, the younger players if rated properly will take forever to get to the bigs, like in real life - most of these guys you listed are 5 years away at best, and with the system they will fail miserably if you rush them.

Re: 2015 OSFM REVISION ROSTER v1 - Released

I'm not going to start anything because of all the work you put in, most, if not all, of the ratings look good. I appreciate the work, the game always plays better with these. But if a gm used that logic, scouts wouldn't exist. The real reason was just time/you know some organizations better than others, I get it, I was just wondering, because he already has two plus pitches and is a B+ prospect. No disrespect or anything, love the roster.

I agree with you there, honestly it came down to a numbers game. Same thing happened with several teams including my own Jays. I had to cut out some good prospects to make room for org fillers.

If only the game had high and low A minors and rookie league.

Re: 2015 OSFM REVISION ROSTER v1 - Released

So can you just import as many players as you want to the free agent pool? I always fantasy draft anyway, so I don't need the roster to be set, the players need to just be there.

Just import that player then. I did this with Duane Underwood for the Cubs. I had him replace Dillion Maples on the Cubs roster.

Just go the roster you have the player saved on, go to Roster Control -> Cardinals -> Export Player -> Save

Then load the Revision Roster and repeat the process except Import the player you want into the place of a player you no longer want. I would try to pick someone who is approximately the same age and same position.

Yes, you can do this as much as you want....as far as I know.

Why stop there? I want to run a Dominican training facility.


But seriously, can you imagine how long it would take to create a roster set with roughly 150 players per team?

A buddy of mine plays NBA 2k and is always complaining about rosters and I just chuckle at him because the rosters have like 12 guys per team.

The MLB The Show roster editors would get 12 man rosters done in a matter of hours.
