Ok first off, let me introduce myself since I haven't been around this community as long as some of the other roster makers. I originally made my first rosters for Tony LaRussa Baseball and Sierra's Pro football games. I eventually graduated to High Heat and Mvp Baseball along with Madden football. then on to Sim games like EWR, TEW, and TPB. then finally I got into OOTP creatiing last year in a sim league I was in. creating some missing players, extra free agents and a draft class. Now you say what made me decide to do a full blown roster set for '06? well following the progress or lack there of concerning a certain roster set, I have become annoyed with their flip attitudes and lack of progress along the way. So there's where I will be different. You will know every step of the way where I am at and what I have done.

Step 1 was to import from Lahman and reassign those players to their correct teams as of opening day.

That's now 100% done

Step 2 was to place card double A and triple A players. This was done by renaming all the fake's to their real life counterparts, then changing height/weight/dob/pob.

this is 100% done as well

Step 3 is to go through each of those teams and change their R\L\SW hit info, their numbers, and positions.

this is done for 5 Triple A teams already

Step 4 is to correctly rerate those players, using their career minor league numbers, pecota, ba.com's rankings and bios. along with the recommendations of a group of proffesional scouts and front office people that I have become connected with.

again this is done for 5 triple a teams already.

Steps 3 & 4 are being done together.

Teams done as of now
Memphis Cardinals
Iowa Cubs
Charlotte Knights
Buffalo Bisons
Columbus Clippers

This project will be done in conjunction with the photo pack in my signature

I welcome your input and feedback, good or bad. this is my project, because i am doing the work. but in reality it's for the community as much as anything. So I look forward to the comments
