What do you think about "Prestige"

[Still2REal]

I think they really need to add in a "Prestige" ranking to the player attributes. This is similar to what was in a baseball game years ago called "Baseball Stars". Prestige could be used for players like A-Rod, Jeter, Pujol, etc. This rating will not affect a player's rating but it will cause players with higher "Prestige" to cause bumps in attendance, be harder to trade for, and sign for more money. Young players with high Prestige will not sign contracts beyond their arbitration years and will instead wait until arbitration is over to sign full free agency contracts (a la Borris clients). This might solve a few instances where untradeable players are traded for by the computer, Like Jeter for a prospect

Your Thoughts?

I think this is a good idea. I also think Derek Jeter doesn't deserve to be mentioned among the other two players you listed.

I really likd this idea. Baseball stars was my favorite game. I actually played it till it would not play anymore. Man I had that game forever and i was very mad when it quit playing. I would probably still pllay it today some if i had it.

Adding to it, a Player with a high Prestige Ranking may also tend to get the close calls at the plate with regards to the variable strike zone.

Established players and those who work their way up to a position of baseball respect would get the benefit of pitches just on and off the dish.

Nice idea.

Very good idea, I would love to see this feature in The Show.

I think it would have to be implemented into the game very carefully or it might screw some things up, but I also think it's a creative idea.
