Yeh Scaffer not being there is weird, I guess because he didn't play last year due to the wrist injury. He played 2 years ago right, he had the great series against the phillies in the opener?

yes he should be in there. I dont think you get kicked out of the union because you didnt play a year in the majors after you already have service time.

sabathia for venters is not even going to be close, they pitch nothing alike, but it going to be hard to find a good venters one. I am really irritated they didnt put in signature motions for venters and kimbrel, both of their motions are unique.

Re: 2011 Atlanta Braves Edits

Atlanta Braves- my suggestions

Mike Minor- Gen 12 (nice smooth motion, hands could be a lil higher but i like it)
Brandon Beachy- John Danks (starts hands low, then brings them up before release)
Eric O'Flaherty-Brian Wilson (quick leg lift, and brings hands up)
Scott Proctor- Gen 113 (stands up straight in the stretch, very straight forward delivery)
Christhian Martinez- Jonathan Broxton
Craig Kibmrel- Jack Taschner (not really stuck with this, still looking)

David Ross- Paul Konerko
Brooks Conrad- Chase Headley

I heard Chipper was gonna rock the high socks this year, so thats what i gave him. Looks better on him imo, got that classic feel.

Schafer will be in the OS roster. I put him in myself.

thanks WB. will be a bummer to not have his picture in the game, but at least he wont have a shaved head. couldnt stand that last year.

as far as his ratings go, i'm sure they'll be fairly low. i'm a bit of a schafer homer though and think he's going to put out a solid year.

Chipper - Gen 75
Freeman - Gen 82

Will take a look at what works best for Venters and Kimbrel. Will also find alternate stances for Gonzo and McLouth.

What batting stance is best suited for Jordan Schafer ?

Gen 28- A lil too much bat movement, but the hands and the feet are pretty spot on..

What did you think of Boesch for him? His hands are a little high, but less bat movement.

Knight has the final say, but Schafer is pretty decent with my edits.

Contact-68/56
Power-29/20
Vision-46
Discipline-93(was a 97 last year)
Speed-75


And he has played just fine defensively for me, so I think it is good there

yea jus like you say, hands are a little high. If we could drop the hands it would be perfect!.....A create-a-stance would really help right now haha
