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.

Happy Easter!

This is my 3rd success mode player and first pitcher. I wanted to create a lefty reliever because I feel they're much harder to find in this game and extremely valuable as a result. Also, since I have a PS2, hardly anyone creates characters for my system, so I decided to take up the challenge myself! :twisted:

Anyway, I'm pretty happy with the outcome, except for the fact this player doesn't have "Dr. K". The Knuckleball has ended up being an excellent strike-out pitch though.

Enjoy!

Thanks.

Nope, not based off of anyone at all. I wanted to create a submarine pitcher and my first thought was to create a Japanese player (since submarine pitchers are much more common over there) with a lot of movement and a top speed around 90 mph (kinda similar to Chad Bradford). As the last couple of weeks unfolded; however, I ended up pretty happy with the movement on the pitches I already had and decided to focus on top speed instead.

Actually, I got Dr. Goodjob on this character and asked him to "overcome some troublesome areas". It worked, but I only ended up with something like "good sense" and "STR finish" (it was in the last 3 weeks of AAA, so maybe there weren't enough deficiencies for a big advancement?).

Anyway, I didn't save it and S/L'ed to boost my stats through practice on wk 4 instead. Oh well!
