bluengold34_OS, are there ratings for every defensive position?

Each positional player has a rating for arm and fielding. Nothing specific like Acc or Jmp, but they do have ratings.

So from the sounds of it you can customize every player, both name and appearance? If so, I'd buy it just to recreate a bunch of legends and make a "Field of Dreams" type scenario.

Thanks Blue!
So will that mean they're ranked in various positions? (eg. SS, 2B, 1B, OF, etc)?

I loved Bad News Baseball because they had defensive ratings for every position.
In one season, my starting SS got hurt and I was forced to put in a player who was C+ at short.
It made things really interesting as this player made several errors while my starter was out.
I liked that added strategy needed when tackling injuries.
I was hoping SMB might have something similar.

I'm 99% sure I'll be getting this game. I LOVE that I can play with my boys on the same team. And I know they'll love customizing all the players.

Looking forward to seeing and reading more on SMB.

This is an area that SMB struggles a bit, as it only offers up two modes: Season and Exhibition. While season mode does give the user the option to choose a season length, difficulty, number of innings, it is simply one season and you’re done.
Nice write up!

Can you clarify the bold. I thought in reading some of the developer responses there was season carryover? I know some stats carried and some did not but you could do multiple seasons.

I will have to double check to confirm Nem - but my impression was one season only - give me a bit to confirm

Just watching a video on youtube confirmed my buy - it's so smooth and clean and tidy! looks like fun, I would play a season mode maybe edit a few players and do 5 inning games which from the looks of it you can play 15min/per game = perfect!

It does have multiple seasons in a way - here is what carries over to a new season

"Your improved team and account progress carry over, and it does takes multiple seasons to fully improve a team."
