Spring Training Modifiers Post: DEADLINE 1/9 @ 12:00 PM EDT

[nick]

Gonna post this now while we finish off FA.

As for the remaining FAs, I plan on doing a first come, first serve round. However... depending on who signs this final round I might do something else for the top-tier guys (like Holliday, Berkman, Oswalt, etc...)... if most of them sign, I'll play it by ear.

Otherwise, I don't think it would be fair for their names to be in with the first come, first serve because then whoever is browsing the board can just swoop 'em up. And I know some of these players have gotten good offers, but just turned down the org. So there are suitors waiting if they slip through.

But anyway, onto spring training... here's all the info you'll need:
================================================== ===

SPRING TRAINING

First off, you can go with the option of "Ask Coaching Staff" if you'd like and they'll do their recommended spring training moves. You can also do your own spring training modifications and go with Ask Coaching Staff. If you want me to go with the coaches' recommendations though, please post about it in this thread or PM me. If you don't post anything about spring training, I will leave it default.

Two more important things before I get into how spring training works.

Please limit your spring training mods to around 15 players.
When listing your spring training mods, please seperate the batters from the pitchers, and if possible, it would be great if you could try to list the players in alphabetical order (not perfect alphabetical order, but just be the letter at the least).

As you can see, the game seperates pitchers and batters into two categories, and lists it in alphabetical order. So when there is a lot of players listed, it would be much easier to scroll from top to bottom and just a lot quicker.

Hitters:
Four categories (contact, power, eye, defense) with 20 points to spend for each player. You can also teach a position, but in order to do this, you'll have to spread out only 15 points and put 5 towards teaching a new position to the selected player.

Please list the points in this format:

Randall Simon: 5,5,5,5 +Learn Position (if needed)



There's a picture for more explanation if anyone's still confused.

Pitchers:
Four categories (stuff, velocity, control, stamina) with 20 points to spend for each player. You can also teach a new role, but in order to do this, you'll have to spread out only 15 points and put 5 towards teaching the new role to the selected player.

Please list the points in this format:

Kevin Tapani: 5,5,5,5 +Learn Role (if needed)



Again, if anyone's confused still, there's a picture of the pitchers' spring training.
