MLB '10 The Show Rosters: OS Full Minors v4 (Opening Day Only)

[JaSnake16]

No ETA, sorry. TD is working on the file Dean did. Just let me say it will not be straight Bahnzo, TD is trying to attain the greatest accuracy and even the DB has some kinks. But he's onto something. He has kept me updated so it shouldn't be too long. As far as what I plan on doing, well I kind of want to do something special now....

Sounds great. Any chance we get some of those 4seamers added back in? no biggie if we don't. Ill try to keep updating stances/motions so you can plug them into v4.1 if you want

Alot of people here see the movement values given to the pitch fx data for 4sfb's and I think that causes alot of people to overestimate how much it actually moves. Yes, it's true the ball is spinning much more and everything but it's also traveling alot faster and with more backspin as well, both of those work against the horizontal break and so, in the end, it still doesn't "break" nearly as much as any other pitch and is visually very hard to detect. I think people see numbers like 8" of horizontal spin and think "that fastball must break a ton" but in the end, unless that same fastball has much less backpin it's not gonna break all that much... basically, it moves enough that you can't square it up but not enough for you to see in real time.

P.S. A great formula I've found for rating the break on a 4-seamer:

(Break Angle Times 1.5)+(Break Length Squared)

Yes this is correct and for this year I still just don't think that the 4sfb is an accurate representation of the pitch.
