Glaus doesn't play 2b, he's a 3B/1B and his power should be around 80.

Oh and Tim Hudson isn't a 78 either. Huddy should be AT LEAST as high as Jurrjens at 84.

Wonder how they will rate Heyward once he makes it to the Major Leagues.

Just change their ratings if you don't like 'em.

I plan on it. I don't want to make it outrageous, just want it to be accurate. With Bmac at an 80 in power I figure around 80 should be fair enough for Glaus. Huddy looks to be the teams ace so he should at least be tied with Jurrjens in Rating. Wagoner should probably be about an 80 instead of 78. All of which I plan to edit.

Did like that they got a signature stance for Escobar this year. His power rating at 56 was a bit low, deserves 60s at least.

really, Glaus is a shell of what he used to be.

I wish on the Home Run Derby they had some guys sitting around close. I like having the State Farm stuff, but it doesn't really seem like an All-Star level deal. It's more lke batting practice with only the pitching coach and the batter. It's just missing the little touch that would make it seem like the HR Derby... But I'm liking these vids. Has me looking forward to tomorrow!

Guys that hits 30+ homeruns year after year (which gluas did for what 5-7 years in a row?) should have 90's power. Glaus should have about 80 power, which is where Chipper is at - another player who isn't quite what he used to be. A comparison to Bmac probably wasnt fair because Bmac is on the rise and not the decline like Chipper and Glaus are. Anyways thats how I'm justifying 75/80 power for Glaus.

But then again anything you say about the Braves has to be taken with a grain of salt being a mets fan.

I just watched the Braves @ Astros clip, and I'm impressed.

Outfielder throwing strength may be a tad too strong, but it is definitely toned down from the demo. The game looks, animates and appears to play leaps and bounds better than last year.

Tomorrow can't come soon enough.

What's wrong with a 78? Hudson is aging and just came off TMJ surgery, its practically a couple rating points from a good 80 rating. I think the rating has every bit to do with the uncertainty with him this season and the fact that his skills have indeed diminished over the years.

With the Living Rosters/MLB Today feature, if Hudson shows that he's all the way back healthy, and plays at a high level, I'm sure the developers will give him his due. I have to agree with the Glaus rating though; a 68 in power is REALLY low for a guy who's entire career is based on the fact that he has prolific power.
