I may have missed it, but I don’t see Konnor Griffin in the file. Pirates #2 prospect SS/CF. Thanks!

He's in the file, every player on the spreadsheet and top 30 prospect are on their respective teams.

Except for the Braves, a couple of their late top 30 guys had to be let go to make room for players who have service time in the majors.

Will post a spreadsheet detailing every player that was released to make room for other players who are also on the same team on release day. Same with transactions post opening day up to that point of release.

Rosters are shaping up nicely!

Question: Will you be modifying FA ratings at all? For example, I would think if JD Martinez were actually a 78 and Dave Robertson a 77, they’d be on someone’s team right now. Just curious.

Re: The TrueSim Roster Project: MLB 25

Is Elly DLC 's speed correct at 90, or is that a typo? Bobby Witt Jr. is at 97? Arguably the 2 fastest in the game, along with Lockridge and Buxton, but that's quite the differential. Just something I noticed in the spreadsheet and thought I'd bring it up. Thanks.

Edit: just saw the stat cast Savant ratings. Damn. There IS quite the differential. Nvm then. Lol. I'll go sit in the corner.

We did actually lol, both ended up with the same overall number.

Actually DLC was only .5 sec slower than Witt last year. DLC was ranked 3. Now Witt had a much higher batting run value (not sure what that means). Here are top 10 (2024):

Sprint Speed (ft / sec)
1 Witt Jr., Bobby
2 Rojas, Johan
3 De La Cruz, Elly
4 Fitzgerald, Tyler
5 Clase, Jonatan
6 Crow-Armstrong, Pete
7 Scott II, Victor
8 Mateo, Jorge
9 Siri, Jose
10 Hampson, Garrett

I bet they get signed at some point.

I probably need to bring them down a bit now that the season has started

.5 seconds is quite the difference when you're taking about speed

That is helpful because I didn't know that.

indeed. Those top guys are traveling at ~30ft/sec . So we're talking about ~15 ft difference.

from Savant, between Cruz at 3.72 and a guy at 4.22 we have ~460 players in between. From what I understand this is their best time.

Maybe he meant .05 though. Cruz was 3.72 and Witt 3.76

It was 30.5 v. 30.0. so I think that is .5 seconds. Plus there is a big difference in batting running value but I don't know what that means.

Edit: I was being lazy and looked it up. Doesn't appear directly relevant to sprint speed. Man..all these values are driving me crazy lol.

I agree. That's it, I have the solution. We get DLC, Witt Jr., Buxton, and 2 more together, and we race. Best two out of three. For family (insert Vin Diesel, Fast and Furious here). We can do a 40 yd, but it's not football, so maybe just a 1st base dash. But top speed wouldn't necessarily be reached then. So maybe an inside the park race. Lol

Re: The TrueSim Roster Project: MLB 25

I don't think it is final. I did not see Connor Thomas...the rule 5 pitcher on Brewers on the list.

Cy, can Connor Thomas be added to spreadsheet?

Also, can you post link for final spreadsheet when you have it completed?

Re: The TrueSim Roster Project: MLB 25

They said earlier in the threat that the speed reading is (Sprint Speed)*13-300. That formula seems to be based on 30.7 ft/s (the fastest going back to 2018) being 99 speed, and anything 23 ft/s or slower is 0 speed (there have been quite a few guys slower than that over the years). So 30.5 ft/s comes out to 96.5. DLC's 30 ft/s comes out to 90.

Even if you just did it on a simple scale, where 30.9 ft/s (fastest in the statcast era, Victor Robles in 2018 and Byron Buxton in 2015) was 99 speed and 21.8 (slowest in the statcast era, Yadi Molina in 2022) was 0 speed, Witt would still be 96 speed and DLC would be 90 speed. So a different method gets the same results on the top end of the scale.
