Power Pros Forum

About his positions, he’s played so many more games at CF that the ratio (CF:other position) is extremely high. Ex: ~7:1/CF:1B. That tells me that it doesn’t seem like other positions are needed. Plus, 1B would be his secondary because he played there for his second most played position (his last 2 seasons). That’s doesn’t seem to accurately depict him because he’s always been known as a CF.

Power – 190 would just be going off of his career ISO, AB/HR, and HR%. If we incorporate that he’s hit the longest HR’s in MLB history, I say why not go higher. Also, I don’t think 190 represents his power well. If I were to go off my own judgment, I’d say 225 or higher.
Speed 9
Arm Strength 14-15?
Fielding 8-10? Honestly have no clue here
Error Resistance 8

Hot Hitter
Intimidator – I’d much rather get this than Patient Hitter. Plus, maybe intimidator will boost his BB numbers because the pitchers’ control will go down
Cannon Arm

Pull Hitter - ? I'd be willing to give this to him

This is pretty cool that you're making mantle, jag.

On the defensive side I think Mantle should probably have an arm rating of 15. For fielding however, it was a little more difficult to work out but I gave him a 13. Some of his assists etc that help to calculate range factor are not a true reflection because runners after a while did not try to go for extra bases on his arm. Eres I had at 9 but 8 is close enough. From a hitting perspective I had him at 195. But that's because I went by seasonal totals.

All of this sounds good. For the power, we bumped Stanton's power up by 20 or so points (just because of the distances), so maybe we could do the same for Mantle? Like 220-225. I don't think power decides HR totals by a huge margin. Like Andruw Jones, he'll hit 50+ HR's in season mode sometimes. And he only has 142-144 in power.

Yeah, this list may not be 100% true, but still these measurements are insane!

Durability 2? His career was plagued by injuries.
Maybe you should make him 19 years old? And maybe gold glover, he won this award once.

I was thinking of that ability but I don't know if I'd be able to meet the requirements after being pushed back twice. and oh yeah, he'll be born in 1988

Would like to see how this guy comes out, and yes, 225 power would fit. This guy is a legend!
