Re: MLB 12 The Show Video - All Player Ratings
How would the 2010 AL Cy Young award winner not be considered dominant when he had an excellent 2011 season? Is it because he went 14-14 or because his ERA jumped from 2.27 to 3.47? There's more to that than just those stats.
His K/9 and BB/9 have been around 8.3 and 2.6 respectively over the past three years. His K/BB have been above 3 the past three years. His xFIP (Fielding-Independent Pitching, adjusted for park factors) last year was nearly the same as his 2010 Cy Young award season. His WHIP was still at a good line at 1.22 and he had 5 complete games last season (6 in 2010). His H/9 went up last year, but that is thanks to a BABIP that went up from .263 to .307 in 2011. His BABIP regressed due to a higher percentage of line drives given up and a drop in ground balls.Comment

I thought the same thing when I saw Hanley. I know he had a rough year last year, but he was arguably one of the best hitters in the league up until then.Comment

Re: MLB 12 The Show Video - All Player Ratings
The only thing with Hanley imo is his power, seems too low. His contact if were talking of Hanley before last year then yeah needs to be higher as well.
Josh Johnson also seemed to have a low velocity despite usually being up there in average speed at the end of the year.
Mike Stanton looked like he had a full discipline bar, but nothing in vision at all. Huh?
LoMo/Gaby looked a little low, but not too bad couldn't see their individual ratings.Saints, LSU, Seminoles, Pelicans, Marlins, LightningComment

Re: MLB 12 The Show Video - All Player Ratings
I pointed this out in the OSFM thread but wanted to see if i ould get more peoples opinion on this.
Does anyone feel that there are too many SPs with 90%+ overalls? Is anyone worried that a guy like kuroda will be JUST as scary as a guy like Halladay or Verlander? as their overall doesn't look that much different.
I want to be excited to face the ELITE guys in this game and FEEL the difference. However it seems like the offset between the guys who should be the best, compared to the guys who are just great, is almost non-existant here.
Love to hear what you guys think,
PS: (I haven;t played this game for a while, so maybe im just reading too much into overall bar and these true studs really will feel way scarier.)Comment

Re: MLB 12 The Show Video - All Player Ratings
I think the overall is not a very important stat. One of the most important things for pitching in this game is confidence, clutchness and control IMO. Some pitchers can really be dominated if you can get a few hits off them. Also when playing i definitely feel a difference between facing an ace or the 4th pitcher. You can time the ball perfect against Holliday or King Felix and you may not even make contact with it. However with lesser pitchers if can time it perfect you can usually get it in play.I pointed this out in the OSFM thread but wanted to see if i ould get more peoples opinion on this.

Trust me when playing through a franchise i definitely hate having to face an ace pitcher cause it is just that much harder to get hits and get on top of him. Not sure how SCEA's methods work but it works hahaComment

Re: MLB 12 The Show Video - All Player Ratings
Hes had surgery on his pitching elbow and wont be back until the second half of the season, so on the game he'll be on the A roster, hence you cant see him.Comment

Re: MLB 12 The Show Video - All Player Ratings
... If you watched the Mariners, you'd know damn well, if he was on a team that could score runs he'd be a 20 game winner every season.Ducks, Mariners, Blazers, Lillard, Favre, Iverson, Griffey, Hernandez, Hawks, Wilson,
