Posting:

* Individual players should be in their own thread, with the full name of the player and position(s) in the title. Don't add superlatives or any other shout outs to it... we will see your guys...
* If you post a team or a set of players, add players by editing your starting post so they're all in the same post. A bump to announce the edit is appropriate.
* Posting images are fine, provided they are small in dimension and data. 800x600 and ~50Kb should be the biggest you can post inline (using the [IMG] tag), anything larger, post a link or a clickable thumbnail instead.
* If you have wiki rights, add your player(s) and team(s) there as well!

Anderson is one of the premier pitchers in Oakland's loaded system, and is emerging into a true ace this year.

Finished him - not quite spot on, but good enough, without being a top-notch right out of the gate in 2008.

Please do! anyone, any favorite team or player you have. I can help with stats, looks, age, etc - I just need more bodies helping out! Every time I look up, some new player like Boesch is making waves and needs to be made - I'll never make any real progress alone.

I'm burnt out from making pitchers, I need to make hitters for a while.

I really need to clear out my stash of success players I have in my game (which is a LOT; almost full memory) so I can help out.

I'll just say now that making pitchers is NOT my thing, I always struggle with top speed and then if I try too hard on breaking balls, other things don't come out right

So who should I do first?

And I'll make sure to make him realistic, I'll look a few things up

I also made Jason Heyward a few weeks ago:

D contact
A power(183)
D run speed
D arm
D field
D e res
4 TRJ
Clutch Hit 4
Hot hitter
Cannon Arm
Agr runner
Gd morale
RF

Well a few problems. 1.) He doesn't have power hitter which will effect hit homerun totals for sure. then I made the stupid mistake of making him throw righty(he still hits lefty)

tell me if you want him although I think I could have done better

Check out Rob H's template for Heyward. I know it's a pain to get, but Intimidator is a must. Not sure about his setup and stance at the plate, but in real life, his physique, bat path and swing mannerisms remind me of a young Cliff Floyd.

If you focus on PWR early, you can hit enough HR’s during games to receive Power Hitter as a free upgrade following one of the games in Year 2.
