One thing I did forget was my notes with the significant season transactions. I'll try to post that on here this weekend for those of you that would like to make the trades throughout the season.

Thank you to all that have been following and please give feedback.
-------------------------------------------

I have been working on a set of classic rosters for the '86 season using Bahnzo's Roster Tool (thanks, Bahnzo!) & the Neyer/James Guide To Pitchers. In order to recreate the season as closely as possible I am using only the '86 season attributes for each player with the exception of players with minimal appearances. For example, a position player with less than 300 AB's will have their weighted attributes used to help keep #'s from being skewed. I am doing faces, equipment, stances & deliveries for each player. Also, I will be editing down the teams that were non-existant in order to make them as "invisible" as possible. I am also making notes as I go along as to who was traded where doing the season for anyone that wants to do the transactions as they go.

Would you be able to include the Royals in your next update?

A ccouple of delivery/stance suggestions I think Chan Ho park is very good for Goose Gossage and Keith Cash is a possible for Wade Boggs.

Joey where can you get the your rosters for last years game those teams look great. I don't have the game but i will buy it just to get those teams.

I found a problem with these mybe it just my ps3 but i don't think so. For some reason pete rose batting stance changes when you play a game. I checked in the roster and it is fine but when you play a game it changes to generic 1. I don't now if it doe's it to other players. Just thought you should now. If anyone else has this problem it might heip. I put another roster in not yours and the stance was correct.
