This is a post for BrewersFuzz, who will be taking a stab at making some real-life players via success mode! Woohoo!

this is his first try, so be sure to check in here and give him advice if he needs help in determining what to do - practice, ninja training with Sittch, etc.

I'll give him some starting info to go on. BrewersFuzz - Escobar is a pretty top-notch fielder, but not the greatest hitter.

Escobar was age 21 as of the 2008 season. He looks like this:

So make sure you pick the right skin tone!

From Rob Hallett's PS2version:
Quote:
Alcides Escobar
# 21
Brewers
SS
R/R
5/2/86

Contact 6
Power 75
Running speed 14
Arm strength 14
Fielding 13
E-res 11

Gd IF HTR
Gd bunt
Base running 4
Stealing 4
Gold glover
Pivot man
throwing 4
Agg. Run
Agg Field


I don't know if he's quite that great. I'm thinking his speed is lower - he has 6 Stolen Bases total in his career. I would aim for:

contact: 5/6
power: 70
speed: 12
arm: 11
field: 12?
e res: C/D

Stealing should DEFinitely not be a 4, since he gets caught so often.

I actually got to see Escobar's rookie debut in Milwaukee next year. You know, that huge offensiv explosion that included Prince's HR hitting off one of the lightbulbs on the scoreboard? Ah, good times, good times...

Basically, it helps you gain more experience points for the level up screen. It's very fun.

Ive failed 4 times. Should I just give up? I saved at a spot two days before I get kicked off, so I cant really improve.

That's too bad - if there's nothing you can do with training or necklace/perfume, then yah, just call it quits. You can start over, or try Mat Gamel, or just move on.

Thanks for the attempt, sorry Success is kinda hard for yah.
