Hall of Fame?!

Jon277 · 08-07-2002, 09:09 PM

Okay...I have just entered the ninth year of my league and the legendary Lonny Jones, a man who owns pratically every pitching record possible and who had pitching ratings the likes of which I've never seen...is on a major decline. I know that retirement is not far off and I am postitive that this guy will make the Hall of Fame. The question I have is whether or not Lonny will be entering as a Yankee (the team I own)...he has pitched for about three different teams, but achieved his major records with the Yankees..his contract is up and if I do not resign him and some other team does...will he still retire and subsequently enter the hall as a Yankee or as a member of the team he finished his career with? thanks

I may be wrong, but I don't think a player enters with any certain team.

Dwolfson20 · 08-07-2002, 09:43 PM

Yeah, they don't enter with any team.

oh...if he's played for the yankees i doubt he will be in the hall of fame...and that legendary lonny jones you speak of is actually pedro martinez :P

The players just enter as players. What team they played on doesn't matter.

You could always edit his player history file and make it say "entered Hall of Fame as a New York Yankee".

I would do that but im playing challenge mode. They should look into players going into the HOF with teams for OOTP5.

You edit the history file(which is a test file) outside of the game so that would be ok.

That is cool!! How do I find out the # of teh player?

Look where the picture of the player would be, and turn it off, if it isn't already, it should say "pnumberhere.bmp", the number is the player number.
