Re: Franchise Fidelity to Reality Roster Project (Official Thread)

Cleveland is finished (Thank GOD!) They had quite a few players at incorrect positions based on their 2022 season. More than a couple prospects who have been released, and needed to be filled in by an active one. I have been able to add every teams 2022 3rd round pick as well.

Not a Guardians fan, but their farm system has some impressive pitchers who are knocking on the door to the big leagues. They also have a plethora of talented short stops. They could easily acquire a big name at the deadline by trading a few of them.

Yep, Cleveland’s pitching development is second to none. It will keep them competitive even though they dined no money, outside of J Ram.

Any chance you can post your roster with added draft picks? no worries if you don't want to.

All the draft picks from the 1st and 2nd round are already on every MLB team. I'm going to try and squeeze in the 3rd round picks as well in the final roster update.

I was able to knock out Cleveland, Colorado, and Detroit tonight.

I'm going to try and do 3 teams per night (M-F) so 15 total, which would be 21 teams complete as of Friday.

Couple questions, are you using MLB.com's Pipeline top 30, or Baseball America's top 30s? Also I wonder where the new prospects will land in those, like Spencer Jones & Drew Thorpe of the Yanks.

Also will you do a trade deadline version with deals made over the next 8 days or so? That's what I want, a roster with all trades in it, then I can begin my franchise.

MLB.com, plus taking into consideration age, stats, etc. Just because you’re the 21st ranked prospect in a teams Top 30 doesn’t automatically make you a C prospect. I am reading everything I can find, which is why this is taking so long.

Perfect example is Maikol Hernandez of the Orioles. I believe he’s their 18th ranked prospect in the mid-season update. But he’s clearly one of their highest ceiling prospects, with his ceiling being a Carlos Correa and his floor being a high level utility player.

Haven’t even touched the Yankees yet, or looked at their prospects outside of the obvious ones that everyone knows about.

All trades will be put in the roster. I already added the trade between the Mets and Pirates that happened after I started these.

Still on schedule? Can’t wait for the final product!

Re: Franchise Fidelity to Reality Roster Project (Official Thread)

Still chipping away, I'll let everyone know when it's complete.

I added the Reds two trades today already, and man are they loaded with SS prospects now. Could be an exciting infield in 2 years in Cincinnati.

Noelvi Marte likely becomes a LF or a DH
Highly doubt he stays at Shortstop
Arroyo should become a nice SS
Likely a JP Crawford Lite

Apologies if this was addressed earlier, which PSN username is this roster under in the vault? Thanks and great work!

Also, is there a particular slider set that is recommended for this roster or just default?

Have you adjusted vision ratings to cut back on strikeouts, complete game shutouts, etc?

Love the trade for both teams honestly. I think Marte ends up at 3rd, EDLCruz in center and Peraza at short.
Have you dropped the version with the trades in, into the vault?

Re: Franchise Fidelity to Reality Roster Project (Official Thread)

I noticed that some are recommending placing 2 relievers in LRP slots, 4 relievers in MRP slots, 1 SU pitcher and a closer. This is due to being bad bullpen logic by CPU teams. I am wondering with this roster will that bullpen setup be necessary or can you set up CPU bullpens with 1 LRP, 4 MRP, 2 SU pitchers and a closer. Thanks
