Top Prospects Fake Names

Im trying my best to compose a list of the top prospects in baseball with their 2K9 fake names. I have 44 of them, but obviously need some help. I know the editting limit is around 100, so I want to get like 80...I have confirmed most of these with DOB or height/weight comparisons...here's how I'm faring:

FAs (IGN/Real Name)
James Hunter - Jason Heyward
Mark Lowry - Matt LaPorta
Aaron Mason - Adam Miller
Kirk Darby - Kyle Drabek
J. Jacobsen - Jeremy Jeffress
T. Harrickalla - Tommie Hanson
Felipe Merrero - Fernando Martinez
Matt Baker - Madison Bumgarner
Randy Parsons - Rick Porcello

Oakland A's
Tim Cartwright - Trevor Cahill
Brian Alson - Brett Anderson

Atlanta Braves
K.K. - Kenji Kawakami
J. Speich - Jordan Schafer

St. Louis Cards
Clint Rents - Colby Rasmus
T. Gerstmann - Taylor Greene

Arizona D'Backs
Jim Procopio - Jarrod Parker

San Fran Giants
Jerry Peck - Buster Posey
Anatol Versoza - Angel Villalona

Cleveland Indians
Terry Shoe - Tony Sipp
Terry Crain - Trevor Crowe

Florida Marlins
Mike Del Santos - Matt Dominguez
Rueben Sorens - Mike Stanton

Baltimore Orioles
Katsuya Uto - Koji Uehera
Brent Mount - Brian Matusz
Cary Toombs - Chris Tillman
Jon Armas - Jake Arrieta
Mark Weathers - Matt Weiters

Philadelphia Phillies
C. Chacon (On the Padres) - Carlos Carrasco

Pittsburgh Pirates
Adrian McDonald - Andrew McCutcheon
Juan Tavarez - Jose Tabata

Texas Rangers
Edmond Aaron - Elvis Andrus
Darren Halter - Derek Holland

Tampa Bay Rays
Tom Baker - Tim Beckham
James Harper - Jeremy Hellickson
Wayne Dixon - Wade Davis
Jered McNurlin - Jake McGee

Boston Red Sox
Leo Allen - Lars Anderson

Cincy Reds
Yonder Alonso - James Astacio

Colorado Rockies
Carl West - Casey Weathers

KC Royals
Ellis Houston - Eric Hosmer
Matthew Michaels - Mike Moustakas

New York Yankees
Alton Jarvis - Austin Jackson
Jeff McNurlin - Jesus Montero


I am trying to find a bunch more...

Gordan Beckham
Aaron Poreda
Carlos Santana
Nick Weglarz
Beau Mills
Lonnie Chisenhall
David Huff
Michael Brantley
Pedro Alvarez
Carlos Truinfel
Jemile Weeks
Taylor Green
Tim Alderson
Jordan Walden
Juan Castro
Michel Inoa
Fautino De Los Santos
Brett Wallace
Logan Morrison
Josh Vitters
Neftali Perez
Justin Smoak
Engel Beltre
Andrew Brackman
Desmond Jennings
Ben Revere
Chris Marrero
Jordan Zimmerman

As you can tell, I am an Indians fan, but I would like to have this done soon. Some of these prospects are big names and I doubt 2K would leave em out (Although I didn't forsee a 1B problem either). Even Carlos Carrasco was on a different team. I have editted the ones I have found and would gladly share my roster, but I would like to complete it first...There is a total of 16 FA pitchers at the age of 24 or lower...After I nap, I'm going to start with them

If anyone knows any of these, please help...

Re: Top Prospects Fake Names

only issue with some of these is the races of the players and the "Years Pro" will fudge up an actual replica of a missing player/prospect.

I am hoping these issues will be fixed in the next update because other than these glaring issues (and the others that have been mentioned) this game is a heck of a lot of fun

Tommy Hanson isn't on the Braves. He's in the FA market. That's the first thing I looked for in the game.
