Why are majority of prospects 5’7-5’9?

    Seems weird. There’s a lot of shorter baseball players in that 5’8 range IRL, but there’s also a lot 6’4+ players.

    Seems like auto generated prospects are all under 5’10 for some reason. You rarely see those Judge, Cruz, Condon, Kurtz, Elly type prospects.

    Taller players tend to be more injury prone, and this isn't the freaking dull NBA.

    Umm what? I’m not saying everyone should be 6’4+ but there’s an unrealistic amount of generated prospects that are under 5’9. There’s not nearly enough prospects that are 5’11-6’3. And you hardly ever see anyone taller than that.

    Edit'em. I edit every newly drafted player to my liking.

    That’s not a bad solution but it also affects RTTS where you can’t edit other players.

    Then you also would have to go through an edit 50+ newly drafted players or the majority of the league is gonna end up being under 5’10 in a few years.

    It’s just a dumb issue that shouldn’t be an issue to begin with.

    IRL the players' height declined due to ABS. The measured them with shoes and ballcaps off.

    I don’t think you realize how many 5’7 top 100 prospects this game generates

    With only 7 draft picks a year the game does a poor job of generating enough good prospects to populate the game with a sustainable franchise long term.
