MLB '10: The Show Rosters: OS Full Minors V.1

[Clarityman]

As a diehard Red Sox fan who watches every game, may I suggest two pitching delivery edits?

Daniel Bard should have Generic 62. He keeps his arms tightly pulled into his chest before he pitches to generate that explosive power, and he keeps his head and shoulders very straight during his delivery, which scouts attributed his improved control in the minors (he never would have made it to the MLB without this technique). 62 has all these features, plus the compact knee kick.

The custom Bard delivery currently used in the roster has Bard flailing about... true, this is how he USED to pitch in the minors... but he straightened out since then, and as I said, this was part of his ascent.

Clay Buchholz should, in my opinion, have Rich Harden's delivery. He keeps his hands down around his abdomen prior to delivery, kicks his knee very high, then throws his whole body into it. If you change his delivery to Harden and play a game, you'll see he throws the four-seamer overhand so that it looks like it's going straight down when it enters the zone... the arm motion looks exactly like his real life stance.

Idk, I see his point. In 5 AA games I had zero homers. I know AA homers happen sometimes! I hit an average of 2 HR's per game in an MLB game. I'm also 61-11 against the CPU, so I don't think I suck?

Just wanted to offer some additional feedback, for variety's sake.

You guys need a cap of Raul Valdes LRP for the mets just called up

[callmetaternuts]

Is there a check or a certain player/attribute that we can use to knwo if we have the right set?

I downloaded and loaded up the rosters, but when i start my franchise, or season mode the lineups/pitching rotations get messed up when the season starts. (sim through spring training.) Any fixes for this?

K-Sig,
Quick question. Did you use the roster tools Minor League calculator to generate the minor league attributes in the game for the players that you created? If so then your power attributes should be lower than expected (as they are for major league players) which means when playing to bang em out, your timing and pitch location have to be perfect (which translated to me means more realistic). Hence why they sim perfectly as well.

Sadly no Peter , after you pass spring training it all gets scramble do to lineup logic .
But the good news is after you reset um they will stick this year but make sure to check your presets like total roster control ect .
