Baldwin is also grading out average cause he isn’t really throwing people out.

Whatever sds feels like doing. Whatever does not make the community the most stubs. As we saw on the last update..only the wbc pack glitchers are allowed free stubs.

And I'm no reputable source or anything, just the eye test as a Jays fan but Okamoto makes some really good looking plays where I thought he had no shot. Ernie Clement as well.

Albies has been the best second baseman in the bigs for a good portion of this season...Drake Baldwin probably goes diamond there if he doesn't on this one IMHO

Who you think are good buys for the fielding update? Seems like a harder thing to predict.

The one I'm genuinely interested in is the fielding update...I think that's where a ton of us will make some hay. Assuming they even do it this year

Also, SDS is woke and probably hate him after the incident with that woman.

Well shucks, I guess I have todo something with those James Woods I purchased a several days ago.

I’ve always found this part of the game confusing. I’ve tried to get into it a bit more this year. Have listened to a podcast or two (extremely rare for me) to see how it’s done. Have some investments already bought. Can’t wait to see how they will go on Friday

Many of the guys getting potential updates are already priced as such in the AH.

I don’t buy into the “MLB the Show Conspiracy” bullsh|t, but this one area where I do feel that they manipulate ratings as opposed to give actual deserving values.

I know his previous seasons were really bad but here is his current ratings

alt text

This season he is batting .303 for far (.306 against RHP and .293 against LHP)
He is hitting .311 with RISP.

He is top 11 in HRs with 16

Those attribute numbers are still very low for someone playing that well with more than 1/3rd of the season completed.

They'll drop them a couple points if they're awful enough, but that rarely changes the price

Given that Raleigh is on the DL, I'm curious to see if he drops from a 90. I'm guessing "no".

No chance. They don't move ratings for guys on the IL usually. And his previous sample size is likely too small to make a big difference yet.

But I'm worried the extra week really screwed people over...and as tin-foily as it sounds I wouldn't be surprised if SDS caught wind of who people were leaning into, and gave the extra week to see if they cool down so they could use it as an excuse to not bump or drop them.
