Post issues with the Major League roster sets here, please!

[5cards]

Markus,

I haven't had the time to browse 11 pages of comments, so if this has been addressed already please disregard. The draft setup for the 2012 quickstart is completely off the mark. The Cardinals should have a goodly number of picks for losing Pujols to the Angels, but there isn't even a supplemental round. Once you get past 2012 things even out and you see supplemental rounds and such moving along as normal, but I'm just a smidge troubled that the 2012 draft is not correct.

Thanks!

Do you still feel this way about Romero or perhaps his ratings need to be worse. He has been simply awful this year especially recently.

Might of missed it going thru this thread, but the game has Bryan Harper at 22 yrs and 114 days. He's 19 something.

Bryce Harper is 19, his older brother Bryan is 22.

Just a couple of examples, Adam Jones is not fragile. If I don't fix it, I'm lucky to get 100 games out of him. Adam Jones is not one if the worst CFers in the game. Nick Markakis has better range and is not a pull hitter (and 13 HRs a year?). Reimold is not a great fielder, but is just a little bit better than Vlad!!! Then there is Dylan Bundy, he can't pitch below a 4.00 ERA in Rookie ball, much less ever be a big leader.

So... every time I started a new game (haven't played in a month, waiting for the patch that isn't coming) because I found a game setting isn't quite right, I have to make adjustments to several players, not just the Os. I miss the game. If I start a new game, I'm going to modify the game settings to what I know (from testing and forum input) is right and sim for about 10 years, then I can't complain when I take the team over. I guessed the Os would have a good season, OOTP just doesn't have a clue.

One thing to correct you on, before this year, UZR had Adam Jones tabbed as below average the past 3 years in a row in center.

So, anyone notice any changes to the rosters after the patch? Markus said in the patch thread that they fixed some glitches. Anyone see anything different. I am at work so I can't check but was wondering if they changed any ratings based upon 1/2 season worth of data.

Also are many of the players still wrecked or fragile?

[dkgo]

what the hell is up with some of the contracts in the quickstart game? I started a new game after the update with the cubs, and it has dejesus signed through 2017, maholm thru 2015, and dempster thru 2015 at huge salaries.

David DeJesus Statistics and History - Baseball-Reference.com

Paul Maholm Statistics and History - Baseball-Reference.com

Ryan Dempster Statistics and History - Baseball-Reference.com

[The Yurpman]

All of these players need their contracts fixed as of the new patch. I made a new thread about it, if you need more clarification.



CUBS: David DeJesus, Ryan Dempster, Paul Maholm
WHITE SOX: Matt Thornton, A.J. Pierzynski, Jake Peavy
D-BACKS: Aaron Hill, Stephen Drew
RED SOX: Kelley Shoppach, David Ortiz, Nick Punto, Bobby Jenks
BRAVES: Tim Hudson
REDS: Joey Votto, Miguel Cairo
MINN: Tsuyoshi Nishioka, Scott Baker, Nick Blackburn
ANGELS: Maicer Izturis, LaTroy Hawkins
TIGERS: Brandon Inge
INDIANS: Asdrubal Cabrera
ROCKIES: Michael Cuddyer
BLUE JAYS: Casey Janssen

Assuming these rosters are the same set as in iOOTP (which I use), Mariano Rivera has 10 out of 20 control and that is a joke that I won't even bother using basic logic to defend. Look at his numbers.

PS - the roster "update" that changed his control from around 17 to 10 was before he was injured for possibly the rest of the year.

How should Joey Vottos contract be set up.
It looks kind of crazy looking at Cincinnati Reds | Cot's Baseball Contracts

It´s kind of 13 years with start in 2011.
thanks to extension 3/4 2012

thanks, I can just go thru in commish mode and edit those. after fixing the cubs I checked a few teams randomly and didnt see any so thought I was good.

looks like the Votto contract was signed after the season started so I'm fine with that not being in there. showing a bit of mercy to the reds since I cant imagine the pain of being stuck with that albatross the first 12 years of gameplay.

I just bought OOTP 13. After this major league season ends, how does OOTP update the players and teams with the 2012 numbers? Is it a patch or some other type of download?

I found a new contract that the patch released two versions ago messed up.

Tsuyoshi Nishioka of the Twins is making the league minimum in OOTP when in real life he has a 3yr/$9M deal with a team option for a 4th year at $4M/$250K buyout.

EDIT: I found quite a few more players that need fixing. I updated my previous post a few posts back with all the players. (almost all are players that are expected to be FA this upcoming off-season that for whatever reason have the wrong contract in OOTP).

[diesel230]

Not sure this has been mentioned before but Yoenis Cespedes does not come up as a rookie in regards to stats.He's having a very solid year for the A's in my solo league but hes not showing as a rookie. Jesus Montero, Mike Trout, Alexei Amarista all show up in the rookie leaders columns, but no mention of Cespedes anywhere.


EDIT- just realized his Major League service time is listed as over 7 years. Any idea why his service time was changed?

I went thru the entire 2012 setup and verified locations, league/division, and team names. I also didn't like the duplicate abbreviations for teams. I believe I caught everything, please let me know if I missed something. Thanks.

My changes are in the attached file highlighted in yellow.

You will see a couple teams in each of the Eastern (AA) and Southern (AA) leagues highlighted in orange. Those are teams that are in the wrong division. (If you make those changes, make sure to re-import the appropriate schedule.)

The entire Eastern League is highlighted because it had the wrong division names.

Team names for the Arizona League and Gulf Coast League are highlighted because those bothered me as well. They should be AZL (xxx) "Knickname" and GCL (xxx) "Knickname". I have made the appropriate changes for these two leagues with my logos, caps, and jerseys. If you'd like those, send me a PM. If I get enough requests for those, maybe I'll just send them to OOTPmods.com or post them on my website.

I tried changes the teams in the Eastern League to their correct divisions, but now setting up the eastern 2012 schedule creates wrong games.
The DH Reading is set to play should be Portland on April 6 in RL.
However moving teams around in the configuation Reading is now facing a DH vs New britain

My issue is how do one get the team in their correct spots so the schedule gets correct ??

[clamel]

I have to ask about this too....

In this Eastern League the setup is 1 round of playoff between divisional winners.
Now that I think is wrong.

PLAYOFF FORMAT

1) The first round shall consist of a best-of-five series with the top two teams in each division playing one another. The second-place teams shall host games one and two, and the first-place teams shall host games three, four (if necessary) and five (if necessary).
2) The winners of the two first round series shall enter a final playoff series to determine the Eastern League Champion. That series shall be a best-of-five series. The Eastern Division team shall host games one and two in odd numbered years and games three, four (if necessary), and five (if necessary) in even numbered years. The Western Division team shall host games one and two in even numbered years, and games three, four (if necessary), and five (if necessary) in odd numbered years.

Not sure if more minor leagues have some problems with playoffs but I haven´t seen anything mentioned...

[TheWrightWay]

Carlos Santana (Indians C) has 15 Steal. Is he that smart of a base-stealer?

He is not fast and is 11/17 (64.7%) on the basepaths.

Yes it's called OOTP14.
There was someone who used to make a mod of updated rosters and stats every year not sure if they still do, think they are part of the roster team now so not sure. Check the mods section otherwise just buy 14 when it comes out it'll be worth it.
