Perhaps a dumb question but why does it matter if your card isn't "clean" the main position doesn't get trained correct?

So if you get a card thats trained in left field... congrats? Seems like a bonus win in my eyes.......

I thought I already explained that in this thread.

Not to be rude to a veteran poster as yourself.. but nothing in this thread explained this cut and dry. I triple checked....

This doesn't explain it to you?

It would also be nice to be able to look at the History tab and have the PP that card has earned with your team separate from other team(s).

Just remember, before you press that button, you need to yell "SHOW ME THE CARDFAX"

Now, to get a graphic of the CardWeasel to complete this. Maybe a mascot costume for the live streams, too.

*This is a joke. I don't think OOTP would actually do that to us.

If you're committed to performing as the mascot, I'm in.

Ok, I'm new here as well, and again not to get too in the weeds with this. But a couple of questions for clarification: I get that you want to see career stats for only your team and perhaps how you are playing a player so you can potentially keep tweaking for best performance. I also understand that player positions can get trained and these transfer in the AH. I also know that you can't see stats (including new trained position rankings) in the AH just original card ratings.
Questions:
1Other than the ability to properly SEE your cards performance for YOUR team, do the stats from other teams change performance? So the Jeff Bagwell you got from the AH hit .150 for another team, is that performance going to impact your Jeff Bagwell's performance? Does this explain why every other Jeff Bagwell in the league performs better than yours?

With this solution, training would be retained and your history would not be lost, and I could see how the player has performed for me vs. the prior owner. That solution was not a priority either.

that already exists in the single player game (split by team at the very bottom).... wouldn't think it would be a stretch to apply it to PT as well.... a drop-down would be handy too... figure if a drop-down can scan the 'league level' column and show/hide as selected, it's a pretty straightforward thing to have one that filters by team abbreviation...

The developers have said that there is no difference between copies of the same card. The variation is due to random factors such as competition, stadium environment, and luck. So I believe that the answer to all of your questions is "no".

Yep, I pointed this out when I originally requested it. It is rather odd that it was omitted from PT when so many other features from the regular game were just ported over.

I wonder whether PT struggles with something regarding team ID of teams in other leagues. That would be the only logical reason I could come up with.

or, potentially, if a card has played for Boston Red Sox and Boston Beaneaters and Boston Bruins etc... all of which show BOS as their abbreviation...

without being able to see the behind the scenes details, hard to say what kind of challenge that might present

[Orcin]

Good points. It would probably be easier to just give us that "reset to factory default" button. If it were a priority...

Park Factors. Most people underestimate how strong of a bonus +10% is. It is very strong. That is my main reason for wanting to hide previous stats. I have no idea whether I need to add 10%, subtract 10% or what, because I don't know the park factors associated with the stats. They are pretty much useless to me.

Can someone explain what value this jumbled history has to anyone? By the way, this is a pitcher so no training comes with this mess.

Enough to tell me that pitcher will top out at silver/gold.

That information would not be known to you until after you have purchased the card. So how useful is it really?

[Westheim]

To be fair it would be much better if at least the teams that a guy played for in the same season were listed in chronological rather than whatever order. The total lines could get lost, since they're worthless for guys that played at different levels.

But, well, copy-paste, eh?
