    Re: does asb 05 have manage only mode?

    Jim, Knight, who are some good young players to get in the expansion draft? I am looking for guys who obviously pan out over time. Thanks for any info you can provide!

      Hi,

      I don't play that way. I'm a roster junkie, control all teams and keep the rosters current. Sorry.

          I do...but I'm pretty sure the players are generated differently every time you start a franchise(the minor league guys) so I don't think that if I gave you my better prospects it would help.
          Besides....what's the fun in knowing ahead of time....?
          Go digging...find a gem...and when he turns out to be an All-Star it will be that much better!

              I had to make an amendment to the sliders on my franchise. The 4 click down on control was too much. I'm at one letter grade down now ,and it works alot better. Still getting a few too many strikeouts by my hitters, though. I don't mind them striking out, but Casey Fossum striking out 15 in 7 innings seems a little much.

              Overall though, these are just tweaks to the overall outstanding experience with manage only on this (ASB 2005) game. Still get nervous in the ninth.

                  One more thing. Has anyone else noticed that the injuries seem to multiply when you do edits on players. For the most part the injury ratings are still pretty high, but I lost Jim Edmonds for the year (torn mcl) and Marlon Anderson for half a year. And Scott Rolen is scaring me to death. He's tearing up the league in the first 15 games of the year, but he has a D- on his health rating. All I edited on him was his speed up one grade (like everyone else) and his patience up a grade (ditto), and he now has a D- health rating.
                  By the way, Edmonds only had a B+ when he went down.

                      Rumorman...
                      If you really want to get Rolen(or anyone else) to shed that D- injury rating...simply edit his weight by one pound and check it again....any edit seems to change certain attributes...including effectiveness for pitchers...
                      I don't bother...but if certain players are just workhorses....that is a way to do it.

                          hahaha thats strange rumorman. I had more injuries before i made these edits than afterwards. But yea that whole health rating and stuff could really derail all of these edits, but maybe they all end up fine as I guess Knight has had no problems with them.

                          Anyways, I was wondering rumorman that by your edits what does one letter mean? Is it a A to a A-.....or like a A to a B.
