Yea, sadly this was my first thought as well lol

I know optimism is far from the entire science, but it can be part of the equation I think.

Okay, guys. We are making some serious progress with the Roster Maker's Resources Site project. I am totally psyched!

Here's what I would like to see accomplished by the time that the game is released on March 2nd:

In each team's "Scouting Reports" thread, there is a top 20 prospects list for that organization. In some cases the players aren't ranked (this is rare), but there are at least 20 of them.

I would like to see each team's "portraits" section have a post for each of the top 20 prospects for each team.

NOTE: Please read up on the posting formats and guidelines in the GENERAL board. Helping to keep things organized and in the proper format saves the mods a TON of work.

Once again, the RMRS can be found at:

Cheers!

Depending on what Jason Hayward does in camp, he'll be the starting right fielder with a Matt Diaz and Melky platoon in left. Jason Hayward has reportedly put on 20 pounds of muscle. Derek Lowe is said to have ironed out the mechanic flaws that led to his second half decline last year. During the 20 starts he made from Aug. 11, 2008-May 23, 2009, the 36-year-old right-hander went 12-3 with a 2.34 ERA. Unfortunately, in the 24 starts that have followed, Lowe went 9-8 with a 5.25 ERA and allowed opponents to produce a .379 on-base percentage. Also, I think Jordan Schafer may be given a raw deal ratings wise. Whether is was pitchers making adjustments to him or the wrist injury he sustained a week into the season that he ended up having surgically repaired, the way he started and the way he ended last year was dramatically different. He was Atlanta's #1 prospect heading into last season and I think the way he was going prior to the injury was at least an indication that he could be an A or B potential player. Given the short amount of A's to be handed out though, I'd understand a B being given. Some are saying he could make it back to Atlanta this year depending on Mclouth's ability to return to form after last season, and Jordan's ability to rebound from an injury.

schafer will already be in the game cause he played at the major league level. so its whatever potential rating SCEA gives him is what he will have

Heh, that was my assumption, but then again... A-potential prospects denote superstars/future HOF'ers and I'm pretty sure in the Padres farm system, the only guy I can think of that really deserves an A-potential is Jaff Decker. Thankfully I think based on your impressions, potential isn't locked anymore (although not editable).

Love the work that goes into this... so per usual, if you ever need any hosting/mirroring or data help, let me know. I've got a number of servers around the US. Although it's obviously not as necessary as it used to be.

as always guys appreciate all the work I look forward to the completion of these! Cant wait!

Looking at the list of the Yankees top 50 prospects, I noticed that Pat Venditte (the switch pitcher) was on the list and is probably going to make it to AA this year. What would you do when creating him? lefty or righty? When/if he makes it to the big leagues SCEA might have to make an option for a switch pitcher. that would be AWESOME!
