What height and weight should I use for Oklahoma Crane? Or heights and/or weights for any other players here, for that matter, that you may mention? Just wondering, that's all. Thank you for the information. CD out.

All of the heights and weights are already posted with each pitcher.

[Clovidequano Dovatha]

Okay, must not have noticed the height and weight details for Crane right away, I suspect. Thank you for the heads-up. Hopefully the other NABA teams, at least, won't be too hard-pressed to win enough against the Blue Sox in the future, of course. But we'll have to see, if and when I can ever get this dynasty/quickstart to advance soon enough and often enough, obviously, EC. Thanks again for all your help and all, so far. CD out.

Is Crane a lefthander or righthander? Carlton was a lefthander as a pitcher, but is Crane? Please advise at your leisure and all, if you don't mind too much, EC. Thank you. CD out.

[Clovidequano Dovatha]

For Hubbell/Sloat and Maddux/Lasky, I can likely achieve the desired results offensively if I bump up their batting ratings, right? And as for fielding, what about their ratings in the field at positions other than pitcher? What would you recommend for ratings on the offensive side, and for non-pitching fielding ratings, for either? Just wondering, that's all. Please advise as you like and can, EC. Thank you. Have already imported/cloned Blyleven/Yoland, Plank/Hanson, and Spahn/Diefendorf. All are RHPs in the books, right? CD out.

Sorry for my error... Crane is a left-hander like Carlton.

For Sloat's batting ratings, edit them in the Player Editor to:

155 hits, 27 doubles, 4 triples, 10 homers, 33 walks, 1 hb, 60 so .282 BA

Normal Hitter, Normal Flyball Hitter, 140 run speed, 210 steal, 210 base running skill, 175 sacrifice, 165 bunt for hit

Fielding: 130 Range, 200 Error, 165 Arm, 110 Double Plays

Sloat is a good pitcher that hits and fields very well.

[Clovidequano Dovatha]

Should I give Sloat fielding ratings at any other position besides pitcher? And isn't 200 usually the max for batting or pitching or fielding ratings for most, if not all, players by default? Just wondering, that's all. Thank you for the information, EC. CD out.

[Eugene Church]

Here are the ratings for Ed Lasky:

157 hits, 26 doubles, 2 triples, 8 HR, 35 BB, 2 HB, 58 K .285 BA
Use these ratings for both current and potential.

Groundball Normal
Flyball Normal
Run Speed 68
Stealing 81
Base running 189
Sacrifice 199
Bunt for hit 64

Fielding:
Range 161
Error 220
Arm 170
DP 135

Make Lasky a two-way player... pitcher and infielder... 2B, 3B, SS... make his position experience 150 2B, 175 3B, 200 SS

[Clovidequano Dovatha]

How many at-bats for Lasky in the stats categories, so that the ratings can be generated? Please advise. Thank you, EC. CD out.

Not positive, but the max rating may be 250... I know its over 200.

Just make Sloat a pitcher only... a good pitcher that hits and fields well.

CD, at-bats are 550 by default... you just change hits, doubles, triples, etc to get the batting average and ratings..

Found this link to an old post of yours in a Metro Leagues-related thread. Maybe this should help us both, at least, out quite a bit? Hope so, of course, EC.

That is the info I am pretty much using... I got it from reading the actual books that I got at a the local library... they had almost all of the Blue Sox books.

All you have to do is just use the players that I tell you to import and then make whatever changes I post here in this thread... you will then get a good clone of the Blue Sox players.

[Clovidequano Dovatha]

Thank you very much for your help so far. Imported a 1952 Aaron for Willard, so as to get him as young as possible. Hopefully, though, once enough second basemen are present, that will bump Willard to the OF, somewhere. Currently he seems to be listed as a second baseman, which he did play in the major leagues, every so often. Have 17 players imported so far, in any case, for the Blue Sox, EC. CD out.
