MLB 15 Franchise Progress Thread

For major league at bat for Francisco Lindor and he hits a solo homerun off Jeff Samardzija batting ninth! His power is rated at a 31 so I was shocked lol. But wow that was pretty awesome!

I forgot to mention Reynolds, I meant to say he would be a good option at short while Herrera develops at short in the minors, Flores to me is better suited as a backup 3B because there's no more important position then the guy who can give your most valuable player a day off here and there. And of course if Reynolds just rakes then move Herrera back to second, in realistic standards most shortstops can play second base so there shouldn't be any discomfort...if there was a thing in the game like a confidence attribute. From there you have options as far as the veteran pitchers and murphy. It's all preference based but just saying what I would do. (Patiently waiting for the OSFM)

Guys, what is the best roster out right now at this early point for franchise mode?

Also Flores is a better option at 3B if Wright were to go down. I like Campbell alot but the great thing about him is he can play anywhere off the bench, where he belongs. (sorry soup)

If you sort the rosters in the vault by downloads I believe there's one with the top 150 prospects. They seem "accurate" although when I look at my Mets a certain Left Fielder is missing from their roster so be cautious with it, it's gotten good feedback though so if there are some prospects missing, import them through the player vault and save the roster for yourself!

And then started to turn around. 1st game of the series Lester gives up 4 hits in 8 innings before Moss hits a walk off sac fly. 2nd game Chris Bassit makes his first start of the year and goes 7 inning giving up just 1 run. And then Moss hits a walk off 2 run homer. We split the last 2 games of the series. Lost 2 of 3 to Pittsburgh and then headed to Chicago to face the Cubs again. Top 3 starters went in and pitched us to a 3 game sweep. We then won the last two games of the month vs St Louis. Stephen Pryor took a liner to the head. Gonna miss the rest of the year. Paul Maholm Separated his shoulder. Should be back by the all star break at the latest. No one doing all that great on offense. Rich Rosado leads the team in AVG at .271. Coco Crisp has probably been the best hitter. 2nd on the team with a .268 AVG, 2nd with 4 HR. And 3rd with 8 RBI to go along with his 8 stolen bases. Julio Teheran has been the best starter. 3-2 with a 3.10 ERA. Greg Holland hasnt given up a run in 8.1 innings. He is perfect in save opportunities with 7. Down in AAA Khris Davis is tied for 3rd in HRs with 6. Jake Lamb is hitting .333 OVR and .458 against LHP. Both could see some play time with Crisp being the only player capable of playing in the outfield hitting over .240. And Pablo Sandoval hitting just .177 at 3rd. Chris Johnson 3B for the Yankees was suspended today (May 1st) for PEDs. He will miss 80 games.
