Re: Bacon's Fictional Roster

Thank you Bacon for the Fictional Roster. I really enjoy the Phillies Roster. Good Pitching, Speed, Defense, and a pretty good balanced Line-up. Really thinking about running a Franchise with that Team.

The Phils will see a few changes in the next iteration. I've added 3 new players to their 25-man roster and more to their 40-man. A new 5 starter, a left handed sinkerballer named Mitch Zimmerman, who is an obvious upgrade over the former #5, Christian Evans. They also have a new long reliever, also a sinker heavy pitcher named Kameron Fox. Fox also throws a cutter/slider hybrid pitch. The third player is a catcher, to add to the Phillies depth, named D.J. Owens. He's a Rule 5 pick who plays excellent defense although being slightly offensively challenged.

I will probably also start a new thread here on OS when we get closer to the release of MLB The Show 19.

Love it. I haven't thought out nicknames for that many players.
