Operation Sports Full Minors 2012 Roster - Spring Training Edition Available Now

07:57 PM - April 3, 2012 by Knight165

Okay guys...

Here is the Spring Training version of the Operation Sports Full Minors for 2012, for MLB 12 The Show.

This initial set looks really tight... and there is some FANTASTIC work done on these. Dare I say... the best set yet.

There are too many to thank for this... and I will come back and fill out this post with all those involved, as I know you guys want to get your hands on these and start your franchises.

Here is the link for the OSFM ST v.1

They will be up in the Vault momentarily...

File name: O.S.F.M. SPRING

Thanks for all your patience... and most of all enjoy!!!

I just want to thank some people... and I have to say... this community is truly exceptional. Operation Sports is simply the best run website I visit. Bar none... and the members that frequent here are one of the main reasons. Good people attract other good people.

In no particular order... I really need to thank all of the people involved in the making of this set... as this is a true community effort and without all of these guys, it would make the process much harder and much, much longer.

Thanks to:

I'd like to thank ksig24 for his insight and input into the potential base for the set...

... and last but CERTAINLY not least...
RidinDwnKingsley...

Without his TREMENDOUS work and the immense amount of time that he puts into these rosters... they would have taken 3 times as long to do.

I CANNOT say enough about this, as his dedication and sheer bulldog mentality to get it done, means so much to these.

Also to Steve... the owner of O.S. and the mods on here who make it easy to keep the threads in order and viable to use in conjunction with the set.

...and of course thanks to the entire O.S. community for all the input that you guys have been putting into these for YEARS!

THANK YOU!

Guys.....a lot of people have requested to give back in response to these rosters. They offer thanks and several have offered money.
I suggest charities if you really want to do something as a thanks to these.

My suggested charities....The N.Y.C. FireFighters Burn Center....Wounded Warriors....or .....http://www.extra-life.org/

Thank you!

The more I see Tyrell Jenkins, the more I really like him. Thinking A...

# 243 Miffy23 @ 04/04/12 12:48 AM

Knight and ALL that were involved with making the OSFM, THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!! Y'all make this game 100% better. Y'all do a great job every year and I am sure this year will be no exception. Thank you again for all the hard work!

# 244 Kevin_D @ 04/04/12 12:50 AM

I dunno. But, after looking at OSFM I should have made him an A. I personally like Trevor Rosenthal better so that's why I didn't.

# 246 cdncurrency @ 04/04/12 12:52 AM

Whoa guys, coming from someone who hasn't played a Baseball video game since MVP '05 I'm just blown away by the craziness of the work this must of been! I'll be waiting until the ML Edits Update comes out, but this just proved to me it's gonna be an awesome summer haha..

# 247 beelo @ 04/04/12 12:57 AM

Knight, RnS, SeanJeazy are all hero's of mine

Thanks!

Agree... his Bundy looks great

# 249 Seltaeb9091 @ 04/04/12 01:05 AM

Despite owning The Show on the PS3 since 10, this will be the first time I'll start a franchise with Knight's roster. I know I won't be disappointed. Thanks to everyone involved!

Yea, I like the progression better last yr.

Anyways here's what I found.... after 2 yrs. (A pots only)

OAK
Cespedes looks like he's a 97/100
Choice and AJ Cole are a tad high.

BOS
Middlebrook(s) - @ 25 is one of the better 3bs. - His name is spelled wrong.
Bogaerts and Ranaudo could probably be tuned down some. Ranaudo is already a #3 starter ratings wise, that should be his upside during his peak yrs.

SD- Perfect. I think rags did them, props to him, OVR to age to POT is perfect.

COL- Arenado is a bit high, I'd say he's a yr ahead of where he should be.

PIT- Taillon is their 4th best starter. As good as he is, I can't see him going from low A to the bigs in 2 yrs. Him and Cole have virtually = OVRs.

MIL- Its was pointed out earlier but the Brewers are on track to have 6 cy young contenders.

CIN- Billy Hamilton is one of the better SS already (at age 23). Should probably be tuned down, he might be MLB ready but not elite to start 2014.

WAS- Rendon is still a yr or two away from being a starting caliber 3b.

TEX- Kills me to say it but Profar could probably use a bump. He's still a yr or 2 away.

OTHER
Lindor, Starling is MLB ready @ 21. Can see it with Lindor but not Starling.

This sim was for two yrs.

Kinght/Ridin- I could keep doing these, I'm sure you guys are still testing. It's up to you whether you want my feedback

# 251 DrkMynd @ 04/04/12 01:08 AM

Downloaded the rosters just as they released. Finally got around to finishing 2 games. Just finished the second one. Still in ST as the Cubs. 1-1 so far.

LOVE the rosters yall. Knight, Ridin, and the whole crew. You guys are awesome. I know how hard this is to do.(tried a few times for Madden 10 and kept giving up after doing about 10 teams)

Side note: Is it just me or does every Cubs pitcher throw in the mid to high 90s? Are we really just THAT loaded with fireballers?? Not that I'm complaining...but still.

Keep up the awesome work guys. I don't necessarily require the updated rosters(Cubs fan..all I need is the named minors..so much suck in the MLB level for us). However, as always, I will download each and every update and use them all.

# 252 Kalon @ 04/04/12 01:14 AM

Thanks to everyone again..I remember when this forum was a little piece of the PC NBA Inside Drive board...now its a great community..

Do yourself a favor and play a Rainiers vs Generals exhibition. It is just eerie... Everything from the faces to the gear to the swings is as accurate as humanly possible.

Maybe its just cause I did all the research on em but happiness is a guillermo pimentel double off the wall to clear the bases.

# 254 jrivera34 @ 04/04/12 01:20 AM

Worst roster ever :-) The Orioles were pitching a perfect game against me into the 9th when I finally got a hit.

In all seriousness, thank you all for your hard work. It is truly appreciated!

Yea, I see your point. After running a 2 yr sim it wasn't as bad as I thought. It was just a handful of guy seemed to be a year or two ahead of schedule. It's kinda stupid that the marginal value between A & B is so much.

I didnt know only top 100's were the A's. Thats fine, I was just pointing out that they were highly regarded picks last year. The brewers are rated highly, I was just trying to find common ground and find reason into the ratings. It takes a lot of hard work to make these rosters, so maybe the maker had his Brewer colored glasses on during the process, I still appreciate the job he did.[/quote]
Would those be beer goggles?

One was to lighten up on the A potentials and give every team their fix. Two was to remain extremely stringent on A potentials period. I reviewed, reviewed, and reviewed some more until I came to the final conclusions that Baez, Marte (Starling), Lee (Hak-Ju) and Schoop should be A potentials. I want to thank everyone for their hard work and dedication to the project. Not one of you goes without recognition. I think that it is also very important that we keep the criticism constructive and works towards the v2 release where everything is touched up. Anyone has any prospect questions or potential ratings questions, feel free to ask.

I'm sure you know but just so people don't get confused. v2 is gonna be the equipment, stance & motion edits. I guess the OD release is serving as v1 and this is .5?

BTW, I'd wake up the baby to show him/her how filthy Taijuan Walker is. lol might cause nightmares.

He's on the Single A roster. Give him Carmona's motion and an all tan glove too.

He shouldn't.
I changed him to a C.

# 258 ksig24 @ 04/04/12 01:38 AM

Baez needs to be an A. Kid is a beast. Just saw him.

# 259 twigstudios @ 04/04/12 01:40 AM

Thank you gentlemen for all the hard work you put into this so that our The Show experience can be that much better. God bless you guys!

# 260 BatsareBugs @ 04/04/12 01:40 AM

I'm currently viewing the rosters and they look great. I'm putting my two cents on some of the changes that can be made and also adding on some adjustments for the next version.
