A couple of relatively minor Giants specific notes: Dereck Rodriguez is expected to be in the Giants rotation (likely bumping out Suarez as opposed to Holland, who is currently the 5th starter for the Giants in a default 100% scouting game), and Steven Duggar will be the opening day center fielder. Rule V pick Travis Bergen (who is correctly flagged as Rule V in game, nice to see that!) is likely going to make the roster as well.

I believe Charlie Blackmon and Jake Lamb are projected to play RF and 1B this year.

For all this stuff about lineups and positions where guys will play, we're constantly tweaking the rosters based on projected lineups and will do so even more heavily the closer we get to opening day, as it all becomes more clear.
So this is definitely a work in progress atm. No real need for lots of individual updates, unless you know of something that's not common knowledge (not reflected on rosterresource for example).

A comment/question for Lukas or any of the roster team people...
I noticed the speed ratings for players in game (scouting off) don't really correlate to the Statcast sprint speed data available on Baseball Savant. For example, Kris Bryant has a speed rating of 26/100 even though he's the 2nd fastest player on the Cubs (28.0 ft/sec, which is above average). Jason Heyward is rated at 23/100 in running speed despite his elite athleticism. Here's a link for the Cubs: https://baseballsavant.mlb.com/sprin...eam=CHC&min=10 I originally began looking at this because I noticed that Max Kepler--the German-born outfielder who plays for the Twins--has just a 35/100 in speed despite being a tremendous athlete and above average runner (27.9 ft/sec). Here's a link for the Twins: https://baseballsavant.mlb.com/sprin...eam=MIN&min=10 Harrison Bader is rated as the 7th-fastest player in baseball and he has a 64/100 in the game. Byron Buxton is the very fastest player in the game and is rated at 69/100 in speed, which seems criminal for poor Byron. Here's a link for the overall MLB: https://baseballsavant.mlb.com/sprin...=&team=&min=10 As an experienced roster editor myself (mainly MLB The Show), speed has been one of the more difficult attributes to nail down and it was usually accomplished [imperfectly] by using stolen bases or speed scores. However, now that Statcast data is literally measuring running speed, using Statcast data seems to be the way to go...would you guys be interested in having the speed ratings in the game correlate to Statcast data? I'd be able to cook something up in no more than a day if you guys would put it in the game. |

^ Not that you're wrong, but the default scale is out of 80, so that means that Bader would be 64/80. Unless you changed it, the max speed is 80

Why doesn't Brent Honeywell have his signature screwball?

Thing is, speed in OOTP isn't really pure speed as such. It has much more to do with how likely a runner is to steal a base. So the pure statcast speed, while it might be a useful input, is probably never going to purely replace the current OOTP speed rating, since they actually measure different things.

No idea. Somehow it got changed to a splitter in the editor. Maybe an import issue. Re-added it now though.

Where in the World is Michael Chavis?
It appears that Michael Chavis has been abducted by aliens. He was listed in the original beta download as being in AAA in the Red Sox system. This was correct. In the latest version that I downloaded yesterday, he is nowhere to be found. I am certain this is part of a plot by the Yankees to mess with the WORLD SERIES CHAMPS!
