I just finished up my lefty genius, but I forgot Dr. K.
It has um...

105 mph speed
208 stamina
181 control

7 sinker with more break
7 slurve
7 vertical slider
7 slider
4 sinking fastball
4 circle changeup

Most of the abilities except for Dr. K -.- and a couple others like release and vs. runner. Is this character low for a genius?

Nice post the password. In my opinion, Dr K. gives me a higher strikeout rate so its very useful in other modes like life and season, but since you have such high stats, i don't think Dr.K would make a difference for you.

Dr. K just shrinks the hitting target on the third strike.

Nice player though.

If you really want Dr. K and if it is obtainable in My Life mode, you could always put your player through My Life, get Dr. K, buy the $500k Mirror of Truth, and get your password. You could probably up your Control and Stamina a little while you're at it too.

The only downside to going through MLB Life, is that he's stuck to being used only in Season mode at the age you left him at (which may be on the old side).

So if you finish My Life mode at age 60 and transfer him to Season Mode then he'll be playing at age 60?

really, i thought ages went by birth year, which is why it would be possible to go through season, save as an arrange team, then go through again with that arrange team?

They do. My brother and I created some monster teams just by using those pre-created characters in the two arrange teams. We kept doing dream drafts until we got the players we wanted, then we simmed some season using those teams, and ended up with teams that are worth over 150,000. And the entire time, they all stayed the same age! It's funny because my team has great players, but never made it to the World Series once, unlike my brother's team, who makes it every single time. It's bull!

Thanks for the info I didn't know that. This is cool because I made an all C's char (B Running), a gangload of running/stealing type skills, at age 19. Lemme get this straight, so I can power him up a bit more in MLB life and at 30 or so copy him to my arrange team?

someone is going to have to double check me on it... since I'm not using the Wii atm (more fun going out w/ GF atm :mrgreen:) But it would seem unfair for a player to buff up with 20 years of MLB experience and act 20 years younger at the start of season mode...
