O.S.F.M. 2015 Recruiting(joint ops with Hybrid Set)

[ShowTyme15]

Are you guys going to pay close attention to players in need of service time? Last year with OSFM quite a few missed the boat on that one. The Hybrid was much better when it came to that.

If you guys need a list of players in can try and put that together.

We are doing that on our master list. Biggest challenge as usual early on is finding players editable with proper position requirements to use.

Someone will have to take the Padres for me this year. I'll sort of be in the middle of the ocean somewhere when the game comes out.

I will help with the Reds this year. I took a year off from the game, will be buying it this year so I can help. I can also help with pitch edits that's something I genuinely enjoy doing while most people hate it lol.

Someone will have to take the Brewers this year... Brad and myself won't be able to work on them, can't find enough time to commit to do a good job.

I will have a complete database of contract info for anyone with a major league contract ready to go by the time the game releases. It makes sense to input these contracts for SCEA players before importing begins and before the rosters diverge into "stock" and "hybrid." We wouldn't want to enter contract info twice and I can't imagine that fans of the "stock" or the "hybrid" roster would want to play with unrealistic contracts. We can even experiment with youngsters to see if we can elongate their contracts at a miniscule salary to simulate having more team control--but that would need to happen after the importing of OSFM players. Maybe this would be best accomplished by the creators of each OSFM team. It's always been irritating to need to re-sign scores of youngsters with no MLB experience to MLB contracts or watch them go to free agency.

Depending on how we can edit contracts, meaning year-to-year or total and it gives us AAV. The best way to go about for year-to-year is go around 450K-550K for the top prospects in the first season. Second season around 750K-1MM tops and the ones around 1MM should be the Bryants and Buxton's. And third year around 1-1.5MM with the top end being once again Bryants and Buxtons.

Glad to have you back

Looks like I'll have to set up a pitch edits thread extra early this year. Anyone who is interested in helping can post in the thread once I set it up.
