Revision as of 15:16, 8 March 2009

Below is a continuation of my Charlotte Chargers custom team from the original MLB Power Pros. Most players will have a familiar look, with slight changes in pitches and handed-ness, and some players dropping off the team. I have tried to develop a realistic, balanced team, complete with some weaknesses and even negative abilities. Most have last names pronounceable by the game voice; those names will be bolded below.

Many teams have maxed-out players, with multiple A's and all kinds of special abilities; this is NOT my intent. I want realistic MLB or slightly below level talent; once I have beaten Season Mode I will begin a Season Mode game with this team on a high difficulty level for additional challenge. Additionally, I try to include several ethnicities and skin tones in my players, and name them accordingly. Players hail from the US, China, Japan, Cuba, the Dominican, Venezuela, Canada, Denmark, Puerto Rico, and Colombia.

I am still creating this team in Success mode, but wanted to start documenting the team and get the players all assembled. The depth chart shows how positions should be organized; I have tried to include triple-coverage where possible. Please feel free to copy these players, and use this entire team as an arrange team in your MLBPP game; I would love to hear how they do!
