Jake Diekman's Velocity

[xtaylordx]

I've played the last 3 versions of OOTP extensively and on each one Jake Diekman throws 89-91. I know it is easy for me to go in and fix, but I just can't figure it out. He has thrown 95-97 with ease and even up to 98,99 sometimes for at least the last 3 years as a Ranger. Why is his velo never fixed or updated?

Turn commisioner mode on, then go into player profile -> profile editory.

more things are visible, may want to take stock while it's on and opened... you cna fix most things but not all... and those you can't fix, typically you can find a workaround (like the other post in new to game section about accidentally enabling ai-roster delegation and "fixing" prospects that are erroneously on the 40-man = hack fix, not a perfect fix one)

thousands of players... soem are a bit off, especially lesser known ones like amatuers or younger players... if it's a regional name just know no one knows them but people in your region. bound to be some mistakes in the data collection (human error, not the computer's fault)

e.g. the young tiger's pitcher had a velo bump during this release cycle.

if he hadn't won rookie of year and played well for ~2years it would have taken even longer, if it happened at all. same with jd martinez... it took 2.5 years before they bumped his ratings

(that's a compliment to ootp, btw... knee-jerk reactions to small samples are wrong, even though in the meantime i did 'fix' jd martinez each year... amazingly almost exactly as he was changed to... although he may get an even bigger bump after this year if it didn't occur already.. the guy has really phenomenol power)

most of this type of thing is automated, so certain things will occur wihtout oversight that may be wrong, but it's a small %. they do their best to improve it.

We just miss guys sometimes. Even though we try to look at everyone every year, some things can get missed just due to the sheer volume of the amount of players we need to cover.

That's why we provide a whole thread every year for people to post stuff like this that we may've missed or gotten wrong: http://www.ootpdevelopments.com/boar...d.php?t=275252

So if you see something that's off, drop a line and let us know. It's much appreciated! At any rate, Diekman is fixed now. I even adjusted his pitches thrown as well after taking a look at his Brooks profile.
