Also....I've been playing sports games since the 80's...and it's always been nothing(rarely...maybe Wayne Gretzky hockey) or numbers as the way to see a players rating. Sorting by numbers in Front Page Sports Baseball become such a bore...most guys would barely notice the name of the player they were choosing in the draft.....trades.....for pinch running...etc.



DEFINITELY. This would add so much to the strategy in the game.

Agreed with you as well.

Not a fan of numbers, and also archaic indeed. I want scouting, scouting, scouting, where I am picking a guy for his NAME because I know his NAME due to a fleshed out scouting report!

I want (INSERT NAME) to pinch run, not (SPEED 85).
