Six year MLB veteran still a "prospect"

Zimmer · 10-10-2017, 04:30 PM

"Danny McLeod made an impact in the 5-1 Cleveland win over Kansas City. McLeod, who is rated as the 11th best prospect by BNN went 3 for 4 ..." etc.

Say what? Prospect?

Here are McLeod's numbers in the majors:

Year ..... Games ..... AB

2017 ..... 154 ..... 646
2018 ..... 156 ..... 656
2019 ..... 160 ..... 666
2020 ..... 162 ..... 664
2021 ..... 138 ..... 567
2022 (so far) ..... 131 ..... 548 (partial year)

So, six years in MLB, will have over 550 ABs each year yet he is on the "Prospect List"?

Please explain, or if it is a bug issue, let me know and I will post it for the developers to see for future updates.

Thank you!

This is a bug I've seen on every version of OOTP 18, maybe it is hard to fix.

curiousity: if you turn comissioner mode on, does it show X years worth of days for pro svc time and ml svc time etc in the profile editor?

maybe try changing it... even if just 1 day more/less. see if it removes him from prospect list.

How old is the player? Not sure if it still does but OOTP used to look at players under a certain age (25 maybe?) and consider them prospects. If in 2017 your guy was 18 or 19 that might be why as he'd be 24 in 2022.
