sweet! you just edited FA to make these guys, right?


Yep. Just edit the player listed for each Predient (Player Edited), then go to Arrange, choose to edit the Washington Nationals, swap the original players out for the edited Presidents, and then set your lineups and rotation. Eazy Peazy. I've done all the grunt work. Each edit should only take you a few minutes. Just make sure you purchase the pitching and hitting style for every President before you get started. I can't stress enough how important that step is. Otherwise, you end up with a bunch of generic looking guys at the plate. For example, Madison was 5'4" and serious and his playing style matches his size and personality, so he has a crouched stance that makes him look the part. Jackson was tall and somewhat flamboyant, and he's a masher, so he has a stance that summarizes him. I painstakingly went through all of the stances/deliveries and matched them up with each player.

There you have it.

I am now taking requests for additional uber arrange teams. My next team will be the Pianosa Bombardiers, based on the novel Catch-22 by Joseph Heller and featuring my all-time favorite fictional character, Yossarian. Uniforms will either be the Padres alternatate camouflage or a similar creation. For those not familiar with the novel, you may not be interested, but here is the tentative roster:

C General Dreedle
1B Major Major Major Major
2B Doc Daneeka
3B Captain Aardvark
SS ex-P.F.C. Wintergreen
LF Clevinger
CF Yossarian
RF Dunbar
DH Chief White Halfoat

C General Peckem
OF Snowden
UT Appleby
UT Hungry Joe
UT Major —— de Coverley

SP Milo Minderbinder
SP Colonel Cathcart
SP Lieutenant Nately
SP Major Danby
SP Orr

CL Chaplain Tappman
SU Corporal Whitcomb
MR Colonel Cargill
MR Colonel Korn
MR Lieutenant Scheisskopf
RP Captian Black
