Where are the TOP PROSPECTS??!!
-
Any update on new player models with the roster update? Sometimes they sneak them in there
-
Casey Schmitt too! Dude has played 257 games in the bigs and he’s been the best player on the Giants this year. Tyler Fitzgerald has a face scan but no Casey Schmitt?
-
Speaking of the Giants, how does Adrian Sugastey’s face scan get updated? I’m only curious because he’s a AA catcher who has never made it past AA and isn’t even in the top 30 prospects list in the organization. Plus the Giants signed him in 2019 for a half a mil so it wasn’t like he was some big name international prospect. Like I said, I’m just curious how, of all the players in the organization, his face gets scanned?

You’ve been told a million times why.
The reason hasn’t changed.
-
I just started on here so I don’t know why. If you wouldn’t mind breaking it down for a newbie I would appreciate it. I apologize ahead of time if you’ve already broke it down many times before!
-
SDS cant just force players to get a face scan the players have to say yes so there's it broken down for you.

Ever since O'Bannon vs. NCAA, it's been illegal to use a players name, image, and likeness without express written consent.
The players the original poster names haven't given it, so there's nothing SDS can do without violating the law.
-
I have to disagree with y'all.
It has little to nothing to do with 'player consent'. Although it's absolutely true that players must give consent to use their likeness, it's not the reason for the lack of face scans.
#1 SDS is not constantly sending out employees and equipment to ball parks to get the scans of all the missing players. I'm certain it's too costly and time consuming to do so. Therefore, scans are done in set locations. Which leads to ...
#2 Player apathy. They just don't care enough to make a special trip to go to SDS and get the scan done. If they were there, at the park or somewhere convenient to do so, I'm sure they would. But they aren't going to go out of their way for a vidya game.

Good chance the only time outside ST they get players scanned is when they play games at San Diego.
My point above about Mike Trout was it doesn’t matter how good someone is suppose to be. They aren’t now what Mike Trout was and they couldn’t get him in the game. It matters if someone wants to be scanned. You struck out swinging on 1 pitch.

You're conflating a player 'wants' to be scanned with a player is 'willing to be scanned'.
I'm sure there are the odd few players who, for whatever reason, do not want to have their face scanned.
The rest fall into the 'I'm willing to have my face scanned but I'm not going to go out of my way to do it'. These players make up the vast majority.
