MLB 2K12 Fake Players

[TDavis45]

Hello everyone!
In efforts to build a better roster for your MLB 2k12 Roster we will work on a set of "fake players". For new people, these are the players with FAKE names however they are actual players.

To Identify: (1st 3 are most important)
Height- may vary due to different sources
Weight- may vary to different sources
Birthday
Jersey number (may vary)
Region
Batting side
Throwing arm
Skin Color
Majority of the players will most likely be found in AAA.


FOR EXAMPLE:
"Kelly Harris" - AAA Omaha Storm Chasers is actually Kelvin Herrera.
Similarities: #40, 190lbs, Dominican Republic, Right Throwing Arm and Batting Side, Same Birthday.

One difference: Height 6'4 - ACTUAL- 5'10

All information MAY NOT BE CORRECT--
If there are any changes to the players you should suggest them on this thread.

This is an open spreadsheet so you may make changes as you like.

Be respectful of the sheet and do not mess it up or delete others work.

Here it is: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/...5RWxTNHc#gid=0

Thanks!

Re: MLB 2K12 Fake Players

Thanks for creating this spreadsheet; I'll continue adding to it as I find additional fake players. Anyway, has anyone found the following players:

Jeff Suppan
Robinson Tejeda (Don't know why isn't the game)
Adam Loewen (Could be listed as either pitcher or OF; either way, he played in 2011, so I'm not sure why he isn't in the game)

Re: MLB 2K12 Fake Players

2 things I wanted to add:

1) be sure you check SKIN COLORS!!! 2K has MANY of them wrong. That's a deal-breaker for me. So even though a guy might have all the correct information (birthday, etc.) if he's a white player and his fake player is black, please NOTE THIS!!!

2) You can use this as a helpful guide. As I'm searching through my roster, I'm finding these are pretty much the same:

you can't...which is why I suggest making sure you also check skin colors. it should be noted on the spread sheet, and those players, sadly, should not be used. It would be like playing with a white michael jordan...just can't do it.

Re: MLB 2K12 Fake Players

Gotta love 2K... This is funny:

There is a CF #21 on the White Sox AAA Charlotte team who's rated a 72 with a 5 star potential named Wade McGilberry...

This is the guy who won the Million Dollar Challenge for 2K10...

(I'm about to ruin his life and lower his ratings and dump him in the FA pool).

That's the same thing I do with Brian Kingrey, 2K11's winner (who I believe is on the A's).

Re: MLB 2K12 Fake Players

I thought of adding my two cents to the list. I've done the Free Agents list for 1B.2B,3B,SS,LF,RF. Right now I'm working on Starting Pitchers. I'll post on the list when finished.

Re: MLB 2K12 Fake Players

I've completed fake name edits for all hitters. On to pitchers, then I'll compile my list.

Okay cool. I've started on hitters/pitchers in AAA. I guess we can compare list. I can't believe the players that I've found.

Re: MLB 2K12 Fake Players

Found something interesting: Jake Moore, Royals AA pitcher (who had Trevor Hoffman's picture last year) has 18 years pro - yet is rookie eligible. WTF
