New Roster

[Vagenheart]

Ok I have done my first team and it looks pretty good. I have finished the lineup for the Boston Red Sox including bench and AAA. Some players did not get much playing time in 2003 so I averaged off of previous years. Other than that everything is 2003 stats. Could I get some feedback on this team? Thanks

Overall for boston looking good. The numbers so far seem realistic except maybe nomar i saw was going to hit .301 but he will hit like .310.

[Vagenheart]

that is true...I was just looking at Bill Mueller as well and I don't think he will keep up that good of an average. I think I will lean more towards and average instead of 2003 stats. I will include all trades that have happened up until now as well. Thanks for the input. I should have the entire Universe done by the end of the week.

[TwinswillWin]

Hey if you can get it done by the end of the week more power to you. I will gladly add my input as i did before. I don't know how your going to rate the rookies though if you do all them. Joe Mauer is a big question i want to see how you make him.

[Vagenheart]

That is going to be tough. What I did for Andy Dominique on Boston was take his AAA stats and subtractfrom that. I left some of them alone though.

[Vagenheart]

I have now done the rosters and most of the stats for Boston, New York, Toronto, and Anaheim. Let me no how it is looking. Note: some of the stats will be off but the rosters are correct.

[TwinswillWin]

do you have the player picture names in there too?

[mooseman74]

For the Jays.....Mike Bordick and Darrin Fletcher have retired (Fletcher in 2002)....Doug Davis is not with them anymore...either is Cory Lidle, Pollitte, Hendrickson, Bowles, Walker, Creek, Thurman and Tam......and it's missing the following players:

Pat Hentgen, Ted Lily, Justin Speier, Kerry Ligtenberg, Terry Adams, Valerie De Los Santos, Reed Johnson, Miguel Batista, Josh Towers, Jayson Frasor, Simon Pond.

I know I'm sorry. I forgot to say that I haven't quite finished Toronto's roster yet. I thought I did but I looked after I posted that. I will try to have the entire American league done by Sunday. And about the pictures, no i do not have the player photos. I prefer the stats box.

[RotoChamp2]

Actually, you get both if you have pictures loaded...

The player portrait appears as a faded background to the stats graphs.

[TwinswillWin]

Thing is Joe Mauer is now a starter and he got injuried in his second game and in his first he went 3-4 so his avg is .750 Today marks his return to the team.

[Vagenheart]

I will look at how he was doing in AA and AAA and go from there. I am looking at his AA stats right now and he hit a 341. I will probably give him approx. a 280, 2, 40. It is tough to say but hopefully he will get some games in this week. If he continues hitting well my ratings could change for him. I will have the Twins up tomorrow just for you TwinsWillWin...lol.

[TwinswillWin]

Alright I know more about twin rosters then other team rosters. I have said alot of things about joe mauer in the forums and i'm gald i pressured someone into noticing him. LOL

[Vagenheart]

American Leauge roster is done. Most of the teams I have not doen stats for or contracts but the entire roster is det. If you find any errors let me know. By the way, a lot of teh stats are pretty close. The person who did this before had all stats pretty good. If you see a problem in stats though it is probably becase I have not set it yet.

[Vagenheart]

P.S. I have done the Twins liuneup so Joe Mauer is done. Tell me what you think of his stats TwinsWillWin.

[XtremeSlim]

A- How come the NL rosters are from 2003 opening day?

B- This is for 2005 Mogul right?

[Vagenheart]

Yes, it is from 04. The Universe data will not save in 05. Unless they have fixed it. I have not done the rosters in the NL either so none of the stats are correct.

[TwinswillWin]

sorry i forgot about this i am looking at them right now

[TwinswillWin]

They have updated the Universe bug also Vagen

[Vagenheart]

I wish they would have before I started this Universe in BBMK04. Oh well.
