2053/2054 player age 30 and under save thread

[HollywoodLeo]

Each team will get 1 save of a prospect or a player 30 years or under. This only applies to a season-ending or career-ending injury. You only get 1 for 2051 and 2052 so use it wisely. Once it has been processed (at the end of the season for career/season enders, right away for pointless prospect drops) it cannot be changed. You can change your mind before that time should you get another injury to a better player, or decide against using it. This does not eliminate a season-ending injury, it only protects from talent and rating loss that may result from the injury. Career enders will be edited to season enders.

Conversely, you can also burn your save on an almost ready-to-ready under-25 prospect who dies for no reason whatsoever even if no injury is involved.

The criteria that must be met to use it in this instance are as follows

1. Player is 25 years old or younger at the time of the talent hit
2. You have not already used your designated save
3. The player is at least close to MLB ready (judgment call by me)
4. If it is an offseason talent drop when the player isn't even playing criteria #3 is negated
5. If you don't save the player by the rollover you are accepting his new ratings as is. No retrospective saves allowed.

However, choose this one wisely because in these instances the restoration will be immediate, as opposed to the end of the season (meaning you have zero opportunity to change your mind).

Here is the format:

team name
position - player name
ratings at the time of injury
talent ratings at the time of injury

Post here if/when the situation should arise.

I changed the criteria a bit for prospect talent hit saves with no injury. They can now be saved as many times as they take hits provided they fit the other criteria, but since it still burns your save for two seasons I'd still use it wisely.

I had to save C Sam Loeffler this sim because he had a random talent loss. He was filled out on everything but power.

[schisno]

Monty Brewster he was at something like

vs LHB 10-6-10
vs RHB 10-5-10
Talent 10-7-10

now he's at

vs LHB 10-7-9
vs RHB 10-6-10
Talent 10-7-8

Can't save your soul.

ken caminiti took a season ender this sim. Talent 8-9-9-8-5, actuals were 8-9-8-7-5

[PhillyFan]

I know there's saves for season ending injuries and stuff but now it seems like every spec that loses talent gets saved. I have a few guys i would have loved to use that on.

[HollywoodLeo]

Unless it's within two sims of when he was drafted you're still forced to choose wisely with one save per two years.

[PhillyFan]

Biz Mackey lost talent 3 yrs ago. He was 9-7-3-7-9 talent. Can I get that changed

[HollywoodLeo]

On the off chance that wasn't just a joke you have to burn it the year the hit happens, lol
