    Re: MLB 14 The Show - Operation Sports Full Minors 2014 Opening Day Edition Available

    Thanks Knight, Ridin and all the other contributors!

    Need help and haven't found an answer anywhere on OS. Have tried setting up Franchise a ton of different ways, including user control with manual injuries. No matter what the set-up, I CAN DL my own guys, but the CPU never DLs anybody, and I can't put them on DL. Anybody else running into this? Help! I need to get this kink worked out so I can start this awesomeness with all the season-ending injuries.

      Look, Knight -- you are the man. I am just pointing out that 25 of 28 non-Yankee players from the first round of last year's draft are rated an A or a B.

      All three of the Yankees' first round picks are C minuses (Potentials: 73, 72, 70). All three are off to great starts in their pro careers and there is simply no justification for the gap in ratings for any of them, much less all three.

      ONE "B" prospect in the entire organization makes it more than a "mess" -- it makes it the worst in the history of OSFM -- which is pretty absurd to suggest.

      I know I can edit the players on my own -- but I think it is important for fans to point out matters that don't add up.

        Personally, as a fellow Yankee fan, I don't believe we have anyone who deserves "A" potential. & our 3 draft picks, are MAYBE B- to B at best in my opinion. No game changers in our system. I do think C- is a little low but I always edit things to my liking, won't be a huge difference. I just thank the crew for their work

          Had not been to the OS Home Page today, and it was a pleasant surprise to see that V1 had been released. Thanks guys! Just DLed them and started an Orioles Franchise in anticipation of carting it over to PS4 on Tuesday. Really appreciate all the hard work that went into this project.

            Browsing through the rosters...most teams had at most 2-3 'A' Prospect potential. Maybe people were thinking a little higher?

            One thing to consider though...is that an '89' is a 'B' prospect potential. And of the grades I saw, many "C's" were 79...not 70.

            I haven't done any sims yet...and I figure I'll have to run 5 or more before I play with the ratings that much - but then I figure it's where you can see if say, Miguel Sano (96 potential, 67 ovr, 68 power rating) actually get to where he should be. Zips, etc figures he could hit 30+ HR this year. He's age 20...so what's a reasonable rating for him? For his power? Stuff like that.

            Buxton is another...he's been pegged by every major publication as a 70/75 grade hitter. But he's not ready yet for MLB...so how do you get a guy who's probably ready/able to hit .285 or higher come June 2015? He'd need at least 80 contact ratings to settle in that area.

            I don't know if there's answers for these...just pointing out trying to figure out the medium so they land there.

            Pitching is even harder. As pitching velocity changes...so you want to pitch with Louis Giolito...his 4-seamer is at 94 mph now at age 19...in The Show...he's not going to be in the bigs for 3+ years...he CAN throw 100 already...maybe they should have put his velocity at 100 mph already?

            Same with speed guys...you can't just give a guy 91 speed rating at age 22...he'll be a 94 in 2 years or higher.

            I wish the raw ratings (pitch speed, arm strength, foot speed, etc) wouldn't change much...maybe a a point or two here and there.

              I know its not a true fix per say, but manual training is the way to go if you want to see huge jumps in a single rating. If you solely train Buxton's contact, it will jump around 10 points in a single year.

              Its possible on auto, but the AI loves its generic skillsets and confining players to a specific mold. If a player is lacking in a specific area that has value to the player's position, that area will be focused on more.

              The last couple of years I've strayed away from the whole "years away" thing and rated the Mariners prospects based on their current ability. I figured it to be more fun this way since it felt like I had more control over how I wanted my prospects to develop. The end results are pretty much identical though, but its pretty fun to play with guys who have a few MLB ready skills already.

                Have to say I think you guys overall did maybe the best job ever on these rosters as thats saying alot considering how great they are every year.

                Having editable potential had to be blessing for you guys this year, I know I love thats its finally editable, that any QC is the reason why I went ahead and got the game this year, cause I was pretty happy with continuing to play 13.

                I really think all the editors this year did a outstanding job with there potentials. I always felt in years past there were a few to many A prospects, but this year its all looks impressive with only a few A prospects, which Im sure has some to do with editable potential.

                Of course not everyone will always agree on a players rating or potential, but the great thing is if you dont like it you can change it yourself, so I dont know why some find it necessary to complain about it, especially this year of all years with editable potential.

                Again Thank You Knight and everyone involved in doing the rosters, they are great

                  Do you have a list (whether thorough or quick) of all, if any, edits made to pre-existing, SCEA-made players?

                  Just because I like to take this and make my own cursory edits across the majors for my own franchise.

                  I know you usually don't even do player edits in the first release but I swear I saw in that other OSFM thread that you said you would be editing a few players this year.

                      I'll be posting updates in the pitch edits thread, don't have a specific date yet but late May/early June is what I'm shooting for.

                          Is there a spreadsheet with all the new minor league prospect rankings?

                              Just played a AA game...Look Outs vs Fisher Cats

                              Had an awesome game. 4-3 final with the tying run being the 3rd out at home in the top of the 9th. 11 hits each. plays well and I enjoy the minor league games.

                              thanks for all the great work guys.

                              PS to any of the player makers that did the faces...Im making a fictional roster and suck at faces..would anyone mind if I used some player models and changed the ratings and names to add to the roster? Thanks in advance (Pm me to ok with the team you worked on so the thread doesnt get messy. Im not looking to claim anyone's work)

                                Hey Knight, I don't know if this has been brought up previously or not, but what do you think about the idea of creating a post-draft version of the roster? I personally think it would be cool to add some of the drafted players who sign (lets say the first few rounds). I'd be very willing to help with this project if you or others had interest.

                                Tell me what you think.
