MLB The Show 17 Ratings Spreadsheet

[DANIELSEGUIN]

Hey guys, it looks like DaddyLeagues won't be publishing the ratings for The Show 17. Because of this, I am considering manually entering all player ratings and attributes into a spreadsheet.

Please reply or PM me if you would be interested in this, because I may not do
this if people don't care.

Also feel free to follow me on twitter @DCSMLB or add me on PSN (username is DANIELSEGUIN)

Update: Here is a link to the spreadsheet if anyone is willing to help. I appreciate any and all help on this project!

Re: MLB The Show 17 Ratings Spreadsheet

Why wont DaddyLeagues be posting attribute changes this year or maintaining a player database?

Re: MLB The Show 17 Ratings Spreadsheet

I'm definitely interested as well. I plan on adjusting some player's ratings if they're significantly different in the official roster that ships with the game compared to my 2017 carry-over save.

If you set it up as a google doc and share it, I'm sure others, including myself, would be willing to help fill it out.

It sounds like the dev team doesn't want them doing it for some reason, I'm not sure why.

When I get the game on Tuesday I'll be making a list of players whose attributes need to be recorded. Once I sort out some logistical things I'll be able to start on the spreadsheet. If you (or anyone else) are able to help out, that would be fantastic.

Why would they want that? DLgs helped me a ton finding underrattd players that fit the style of team i tried to build. this will make it much harder now. wow thats disappointing.

I honestly don't know. I tried tweeting at DaddyLeagues and Ramone but neither gave any kind of explaination.

Maybe to make it hard to have "day traders" who work the market all day and force people to the console ? You can see the margins on TSN page but it doesn't let you sort by profits and is a little more limited. Just a theory...

Yeah that could be why. The devs said that they would have a feature that shows how certain cards are trending, like stocks. But that might be the same as last year on TSN.

I'm attaching an excel file I used to make spreadsheets the last couple of years.


This can go really fast if volunteers simply take a couple of teams and then send their results to a central person.


Simply fill out the fields and then click the button and it will export the data to the '2017' page.


I'd recommend doing all players on the 40-man rosters as well as all the free agents.

I would help in this kind of effort, knowing it was such an enormously time-squandering project doing it for all 30 teams when I did it last time back in MLB 11... (jeez I still couldn't believe I did it alone manually...),

... but only if the resulting data are "open-sourced" for use by the general public and also the source data is something of general interest (I'd only be interested in SCEA default roster).

Another issue is that I don't have access to Microsoft Excel. If collaboration on the web is desired, something like Google Sheet (from which data can be exported into Excel) might be a better choice.

I'm glad that you are willing to help. I have a base file right now on google sheets. I am only going to be working on ratings for the base roster. Some players are missing, so add any that aren't there.

Is there still interest in doing this? I'd be willing to enter data for a couple of teams. I see someone has entered the OVR for all of the Toronto players, and all of the ratings for 10 of them.

I cleaned up some things on the spreadsheet. Got the header row back to the top and froze it. Deleted some unused columns. Froze the first few columns. Added some columns I'm interested in (potential, age, salary, and secondary positions).

I don't have anywhere near enough time to fill all the raw data out, however once we do get things filled in, I can create all sorts of filters, graphs, etc., to help us identify the sorts of players we're trying to find (I use Google Sheets every day in my day job).

I was actually able to get all the base ratings. I'll try to remember to put it on the spreadsheet tomorrow.
