He's not finished with it yet, but once its done, I'm sure he would do that. If not, I will. Just keep checking back on the thread to see when he's finished.

Dropped in to first of all say NICE WORK!


Second, just some suggestions for Andy Pettitte.

Instead of one of his changeups, put a cutter. He definitely throws a cutter, and has for quite a while. Second, his changeup is a bit too slow. He was throwing 95 mph heaters at me (which is realistic given his age in 96), but 74-75 mph changes. I don't think anyone in the majors has a 20 mph difference between those two pitches.

Also, take a look at Gen 103 for his pitching style.

Again, nice work! Just some constructive criticism!

Thanks man. I will go apply these suggestions in a bit. I have received some concern earlier about the change in pitch speeds and I will probably go back and look them all over before I post the final product. Same with stance/delivery motions if anyone has any suggestions.

Again, thanks for the tip.

Nice work but still needs alot of edits. I wonder what year bedwardsroy will be doing this year since Baumy seems to have a handle on 1996?

A quick update before I cash in for the night.

These may be released a little later than I anticiped. The reason for this is due to the fact I have decided these will only be worthy if I add 2 more pitchers to almost every team. Most notably, relief pitchers.

Also, I have had a few people mention that I have too great of difference between fastball and change up speeds. I will sort through each pitcher before release and either raise or lower one or the other to a more practical speed.

I also have began preparing each team for dynasty play by editing every player on the team that was not on the roster for the 96 season.

Between these changes and the 10 teams I have left, I would hope a mid to late May release is possible.

If there are any other concerns with this set, please voice them here now so I can get them ready for the release.

Thanks boys.
