Re: All Time MLB 2k12 Rosters

What you did with the Red Sox there is great. If you can produce that for more teams. I will input all the data into the game so we can make a great roster.

Heres one of the New York Yankees with the revisions.

Re: All Time MLB 2k12 Rosters

This is a really cool project.
Other 99 overall suggestions: Ken Griffey Jr (Mariners), Nolan Ryan, Randy Johnson, Pedro Martinez, Mike Schmidt, Trevor Hoffman
Players that should be improved (close to a 95): Pete Rose, Joe Morgan, Billy Wagner (Astros)

One thing I noticed is that current players are getting much higher rankings than they should. Is Elvis Andrus really only 8 overall points behind A-rod in his prime and a couple behind Nomar? Hell no. Current players that make it, minus the really really good ones (Miguel Cabrera, Pujols, etc.) shouldn't be even in the 80s. If you're a good/great player now, but not on your way to a hall of fame career, then your ratings shouldn't compete.
Another idea to get accurate ratings for players is to check old games (MVP series, games on the N64) and see what their overalls were on those games, and it gives you a pretty good guideline and model for the player ratings. I really think this project is cool and hope something comes out of it.

Griffey is a 98 I believe, so is Roy Halladay, Mickey Mantle, Ty Cobb, A-Rod (Mariners),Nolan Ryan (Texas), Grover Cleveland Alexander, Dwight Gooden, Pujols, Honus Wagner, Randy Johnson (D-Backs), Sandy Koufax, Barry Bonds (Giants), and Christy Mathewson.

I also understand the current/former scale, and I have to sort of take potential into account because people like Tony Conigliaro were dominant at the time, but something got in the way....same goes for Alfonso Soriano....

If you get a chance could you put up a screenshot or something so I see how the player models look?

Re: All Time MLB 2k12 Rosters

What criteria is used to determine who makes the team? For example, the Cardinals have 3 1B, but only 3 OF...that's not a good way to build a 25-man roster.

This is the team I'm building. Just throwing it out there if you want to re-think some of your choices.

Solid list tm_psycho, but there are a few that I think are missing off that PDF as well...

CF/RF - W. McGee
CF - C. Flood
CF - R. Lankford even has to be a consideration
LF - V. Coleman
2B - T. Herr
C - T. McCarver
P - Andujar
P - Forsch
P - Morris

As a Cardinals fan myself, I would love to see Pujols left off this list as A) he is currently active on the Angels and B) I have yet to forgive him for chasing a few more bucks vs being a lifetime Cardinal (how much money do you really need?) - I would rather see McGuire, Hernandez (probably has to be on the Mets roster tho), Jack Clark or you could just move Stan Musial to 1B, as he played a ton of 1B for the Cardinals during his career and start Enos in RF.

Cardinals had so many great players, especially in the OF - making an all-time Red Birds team needs to make use of AAA as well (at least)!

That was a clerical error on my part, And I was primarily running of of my own knowledge. I put in Medwick instead of Fernando Tatis, so that way they have four and they can move Pujols out there if need be, since Pujols played some Left Field for the Cardinals.

I'll see if I could put a screenshot up, but honestly they don't look great. Its hard to work with the terrible player editor in this game.

They arent going to look perfect I just want to see how they look....also I was wondering if I was getting close in the range of the overalls I first put out and the ratings they're ending up with that I gave them later

The overalls are usually a few points off but not drastically. I'd say the average is about 3 points off or so
