For the May 8th update, do any "big" LS diamonds go down?
-
I am not sure I have ever seen a double digit OVR boost in a single update before.
But I hope you are right
-
@Dolenz_PSN Several commons got double digit increases in the first roster update last year. Soderstrom is a good example similar to Walker’s situation. He got +10 from 65. Walker has been significantly better than what he did. Okert got +13. So did Shane Smith.
-
@Wilbs715_XBL I wasn’t saying Pages would be diamond. Just saying he’s going up. 84 seems right. Also didn’t say Muncy wasn’t go up. Simply saying there’s zero chance he’s going diamond.
I think he hits 84 tops
I agree, I think both go up.
-
Onix_Savage22_PSN maybe soto stays no way lindor stays 90
-
@GoozeFn_PSN because they love trout. He's still one of the biggest names in the game. He'll go up.
-
Lindor is on IL, I don’t think they’ve ever updated someone while they were on IL.
-
Does Skubal move since he's out for 3 months - or does that not factor in?
-
@GoozeFn_PSN trout should never be drop lower than an 85. He is still one of the elite hitters in the lg. the only thing that holds him back from being higher is being injured all the time affecting his defense and his base running.
-
@Dolenz_PSN Judge went from Common to Diamond in less than half a year and every week people said he wouldn’t even go gold. It’s always possible lol.
-
@ApolloZ_99_MLBTS I would argue that he wasn’t an elite hitter from 23-25. He has turned it back up this year, but I just don’t see where the upgrade comes from. Frankly, his stats are already higher than his stats over the last 3 years deserve. I get why they continue to prop him up. I just don’t see how they can justify giving him an upgrade.
-
@DeleteyourTTVBTW_MLBTS Aaron judge won a silver slugger and rookie of the year, was voted an all star, and finished 2nd in mvp voting. He is also a Yankees. He also kept his pace basically all year. Doesn’t Walker won’t get it but judge is one of the exception then the rule.
-
Pages 3HR game might get him to diamond now.
-
Someone please correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe this is what SDS uses for attributes:
Contact - BA & K%
Power - ISO & HR%
Vision - BB% & K%So for Pages, his BA is way up, but so is his BABIP (.382 way above league average and way over last years number so people assume he’ll regress to the mean). He may get a bump up in contact but his K% is also up so it won’t be much.
His ISO is flat at .187 and his HR% is actually down.
Walks are up so maybe an uptick to vision but again, his K% is also up.
I think they’ll bump him up 1 possibly 2 but I don’t see him going diamond.
Muncy is intriguing, his BA is waaay up and his BABIP at .316 is slightly above league avg (.295). His BB% and K% are a touch worse than last year but not far off from career avg. His ISO and HR% are up so his power is off to a better start. He’s not going diamond but could be upgraded to a low gold.
Take my analysis with a grain of salt, especially since SDS does wonky things sometimes with upgrades that surprise even the most veteran attribute investors.
Contact is avg vs L, vs R
Power is iso vs L, vs R
Vision is K%
They don't use K rate for contact, hr rate for power or walk rate for vision. -
With discipline gone is it possible BB rate ends up in vision somehow now? It would be weird having something so important not factor into an overall.
-
@Teak2112_MLBTS If it isn’t, it should be.
-
@rubicante23_PSN only factors in when convenient for sds no way he moves.
-
Miller up to a 92 watch. 80k price tag soon
-
@Ditka06_MLBTS I think he could go even higher than 92, but wouldn’t be surprised if price doesn’t get that high.
-
Yordon and mason miller will go up to the 90+ barrier .Lindor and Jose Ramirez will go down. It’s kind of an MLB The Show tradition that Lindor and JRam drop below 90 then trickle back up before the end of the season.
-
He should be regardless of the game.
