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!

I'm planning on making an Austin Jackson character for the Wii, and here are my projected stats for him, based on what I've seen:

TRJ: 2
CON: High E
PWR: Low D
RUN: Low B
ARM: High D
FLD: High D
E-RES: Low D

Any opinions? What abilities should I give him? What should he look like?

Image

2nd-darkest skin tone
no hair (bald)
any standard face,, smaller eyes
black bat, black glove
no accessories or glasses
Uniform #14
B-day: Feb 1
Age: 21 in 2008

wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Austin_Jackson

I'm not so hot on the D power (more of E?), but contact could be a D. He's had limited time, but a .308 career avg is good. If you don't get too many blue abilities, go for 9 (D).

Also, I would make him on the Yankees, since that's where he was in 2008 before being traded. Rob Hallett's version was like this:

Quote:
R/R
Tigers
CF/LF/RF
#60

Contact 8
Power 82
Run Speed 12
Arm 9
Fielding 9
Trj 2
E-res 8

Timely Whiff
Throwing 4

beautifully done! Thanks so much for your contribution!

adding to the Wiki page. Let me know if you want to attempt a new guy. :) I think Scott Sizemore was your next guy planned, right?

Don't know how much relevance this has anymore, but Jackson's batting stance is closest to Jeter's, just without as much bat waggle.
