I, like everyone else I'm sure, would love for all the stances and motions to be perfect, but you guys have to cut SCEA a little slack. Players tweak their windups and stances as well as their strides and follow throughs constantly, so it must be hard to keep them accurate. Of course that doesn't explain how many players get stuck with the same stance/windup for multiple years in a row
Not one single person can look at stance 3 and say that is anything similar to bryant. He hasnt tweaked his stance one bit, still looks exactly the same as his college videos. there is another that actually looks a bit better (I cant remember the number right now) but it has a lot of bat wiggle compared to what bryant has. there is really no excuse for messing up stances, especially for guys that have a simple mechanically sound stance and swing like bryant. maybe its time for someone else to breathe some new life into the game with stances and motions.

If Rodon is PROSPECT WINDUP 4....then I think Syndegard would be PROSPECT WINDUP 5

Also - If Siwhart is PROSPECT STANCE 19......then Addison Russel must be in the 16-18 range

Re: Prospect Stances & Windups

I didn't think these were actually tied to specific prospects but just random, but maybe not. I guess that's a question for the boys at SCEA. Later

They're tied to specific prospects, because certain guys get the Prospect Stance/Motion assigned to them when SCEA releases their live roster update.

EX: SCEA has Bryant as Prospect Stance 3
Carlos Rodon has Prospect Windup 4
Etc...

It's just a matter of figuring out what belongs to what player

Re: Prospect Stances & Windups

I believe that prospect #5 windup is Noah Syndergaard's pitching motion, I was watching some of the NY Mets videos from MLB. If you watch Noah Syndergaard pitch, he throws from over the top. He also kinda torques his back just a bit before he gets into his full windup & stretch. Rondon's prospect 4 pitching motion looks like his, especially from the full windup, but the arm angle is completely differernt. I definitely do think that prospect windup #5 is definitely Noah Syndergaard's after testing it & watching videos.

Re: Prospect Stances & Windups

Bump....

I think I found a few more--these are mostly educated guesses though...

2-might be Jorge Alfaro, but I honestly am not sure
9-Austin Hedges (SCEA used this one)
10-Gallo (ruins alphabetical order, but it does look like his stance)
13-Colin Morin--almost positive
14-DJ Peterson..??
17-looks like it's supposed to be Kyle Schwarber, but it isn't great
19-possibly Corey Seager
