@@StateoftheFranchiseGamingthere isn’t any tell tale sign that a pitcher is generational like there is for a hitter but I’ve noticed that K/9 & BB/9 are usually higher than H/9 on pitchers.
It’s incredibly difficult to scout a lot of hitting prospects compared to pitching. I wish they’d change the scout position option to how its set up in discovery (pitcher, catcher, infield, outfield) so we could get more info on a whole infield crop rather than just 2B or just SS. Good hitting prospects are so hard to find but you could draft 7 A-B POT pitchers every class
This is my favorite video of the year! Also giving us a directors cut of 2 hours 😮😮. By any chance do you have a roster saved with all Joe randoms? I don’t have the patience to do that myself.
I watch and enjoy a lot of your rebuilds, and just wanted to leave a comment to let you know that this rebuild was my favorite one in a while. I was super invested in it the whole way. I know that this type of video takes ages to make, and I imagine that poring through so many prospects, trying to learn which ones might project well, etc., must be pretty mentally exhausting. Not to mention all of the annoying little roster stuff and bugs in MLB The Show. (I really wish they'd put a bit more into the offline modes btw, I still play MLB The Show 20 for the RTTS, since it's been pretty bad since then lol.) The point I'm trying to make is I really appreciate the time and effort that went into this video, and I'm hoping you see enough enagagement and enjoy it enough to do more like it.
Do you know if you can "reroll" your draft pick position? Is there a specific date in the game it happens where you can save the day before and then reload your save until you get first pick?
Hey Ant, do you know if players that are drafted but not signed ALWAYS show up in the free agent pool in the offseason? Or do some disappear and end up in the next year's draft class?
I did this on my own but for some reason even though I had trades on manual it would trade a few of my players for like a random relief pitcher and also I kept on getting real players through the rule 5 draft and idk enough about the rule 5 draft to like not get some players out of it yk?
Let's see you do the Cubbies next because I know you'll put your full heart into it and don't be afraid to show us some more of the free agency negotiations!
Anyone else screaming “Catchers!!!” at their screen? EVERY YEAR he keeps forgetting. Lol. Like if there’s not one in the first round that he likes he just completely forgets about the position. Lol.
If I draft a pitcher with only 2-3 pitches as a starter I add them a new pitch but make it 20 overalls less then the worst pitch they have. So if their worst pitch is like 50 control I’ll make their new pitch a 30 control.
That pitch would then be almost unusable with 30 control (in sim) if you played you may be able to work around it if you're good with any of the user controlled inputs (pinpoint, analog or meter). All pitchers come with 3 pitches minimum.
That’s one of the things the show does with prospects I cannot stand. There are usually 5-6 per class and they immediately begin regressing. It doesn’t make any sense to say a guy is that good and only ever has the opportunity to go backwards. After my drafts in franchise I go through all the AI teams and match those player’s potential to their starting overall.
You should do a video trying to see how many records you could break with players in a franchise. I know it’s pretty hard but maybe with enough time you could have someone break the saves record or home run record or like hits in a season
@@its_b_edits its really rare, they need to make it more common. Especially stolen bases, guys with 99 stealing and speed only steal like 40 bases a season
@@josharata3342 not really, these are all time records and for example no one is going to be like Ricky Henderson ever again. Maybe they should increase some stats, but not to the point where records always get broken
Ahhh Postseason rosters being jacked up when you start, must be #FranchiseSzn . I wish they would let us handle that ourselves with those who are eligible and not just shuffle the deck unnecessarily. Sometimes they make it impossible to shuffle things back to how you had it thru the regular season.
@@TheAntOrtiz yeah I like it. If anything it’d probably help your long term rebuilds. Getting young players immediately on the team while getting more top picks in the draft
I think you got 2 extra first round picks for the 2030 draft because Oshiro got rookie of the year and then Valencia finished in the top 3 in MVP voting the year prior.
