Talent Question

mlbpleague · 12-25-2003, 01:37 AM

Hello evereyone,
I am in the middle of making an updated 2004 roster set. I am having problems with the Star Points rating. I have Bengie Molina for the Angels at:
Ave: 5 Good Talent
2B: 2 Fair Talent
3B: 1 Poor Talent
HR: 3 Average talent
BB: 2 Fair Talent
SO: 4 Fair Talent
Arm of D
and Range of C
and some how he is still a 4 star prospect.

Now i have Kelvim Escobar at:
AH: 6 Good talent
A2B: 5 Good Talent
AHR: 8 Good talent
ABB: 5 Average Talent
K's: 7 Good talent
Throwing Velo: 8
and he is only a 2 star

Can anyone help me with this? It certainly doesn't seem right. Thankyou

Ignore the stars, that's what I do.

I also choose to ignore the stars as much as possible. I do believe the stars are somewhat based on the talent in the league at the same position. So your 4 stars for Bengie Molina could mean you don't have a lot of talent in the league at the catcher position, but for Escobar, maybe you have a lot of other pitchers in the league with talent better than him. Just a guess...
