Thank you!

...and I would LOVE it if you did.

I really, REALLY loved the 1994 and the 2000 sets I did.
It was probably the best baseball gaming I had.(IMO...)

When you do...I think I still have the day to day transactions and the injury table for that set.
I'll post it in the thread if you like.(I have to check though)

Oh yes, that would be useful if you can find them!

The 1994 set was my best baseball experience for sure, it deserves the work to port it over.

Also any info on how you came up with those ratings would be cool: Did you use a ratings calculator, did you find comparables in the default roster, etc... I'd love to expand it with minor leaguers so if you used a calculator, I'd want to use the same so that all the data lines up.

Go into the stickied 2014 Full Minors thread in this roster section.
On page one is a list of links to the Google Docs we use for creating players.
The top lines(shaded in color) are the MLB equivalents to the stats.
I myself play some attributes against others...but those charts are the basics that I've used for some time now.

Thanks again!

I made them full of Generic players rated at 40's....
So the sims wouldn't get too skewed in one direction or the other ....and you just skipped the scheduled games with those teams.
That was one of the reasons I did 2000 two years earlier...it was the first year I liked with all teams that are present.
