I Found 2 Generational Players in One Draft!

[@crc-xbrojonathan4508]

try a generational starting pitcher and a generational position player on the same team. see how long til they get a world series appearance

Just look at the angels

[@Bhowell21]

The pirates always make crazy moves in any franchise I play. In a couple of Free agencies they signed Rhys Hoskins, Ian Happ and Teoscar as well as a lot of low 80s pitchers and hitters.

[@jons7038]

In mine, they traded Cruz almost immediately

[@bmw88watts]

Letting Steven Bell walk is such a pirates thing to do

[@jasonglasser1621]

Having an amazing player and then just letting him walk at the first sign of having to pay him more than $10 is just so quintessentially Pirates...

[@rmorrow323]

And then he goes to the rays lol

[@noylakers9755]

The catcher not making the HOF with 85 WAR is nuts. I think pretty much everyone with 65+ War makes it eventually unless your name end with Rose.

[@crimsontide1980]

Rose will likely get there albeit posthumously. They won't ever put him in where he lives to see it, sadly. Might be a hot take, but I say put in Bonds, Clemens, and Rose. And as much as I'm against PED's, there's just no way to tell who has ever taken them and who hasn't as far as the existing HOF members. I mean Ortiz name has been involved with PEDs, he's in(and deservedly so), that and baseball did not crack down on PEDs in that era like they do now, they basically turned the other way in the mid to late 90s, especially because they were trying to win their fans back.

[@crimsontide1980]

At the end of the day, these 3 were just way too talented, and their stats all speak for themselves. No we don't know what their stats would have looked like without PEDs(not Rose), but I'm confident Bonds and Clemens still put up stats good enough to get them in with or without.

[@RealCGH]

To put this to perspective he has the highest war by a catcher by 10, he is absolutely a first ballot

[@FTLnovaKid]

This is MLB the show we are talking about. 😮‍💨

[@noahdavidson4696]

I’ve noticed the past couple Shows that once a player hits 10 year service time they regress. The player can be 28 and have regression because of his service time

[@formerhermit12]

All this video told me is that regression in this game is insane. Both players regressing before they're 25? Nuts

[@MLBTSFranchise]

Riddle might be best career I’ve seen from drafted player in MLBTS history. 3,000 hits and 640 HR is unheard of in MLBTS due to the regression

[@noahdavidson4696]

I did the same career sim as ant and I got a player who is 30 years old and has. 506 hr

[@SportsANDshish]

The fact the players don’t get quirks shows they still don’t care about franchise and the fact you get outlier on an prospects is lame af too

[@IsYouAWizard]

Hey, apologies if you already knew this, but the reason the catcher's WAR was higher than the 3rd baseman's during some seasons when the 3B hit better is because WAR is positional. Different positions generate a different amount of base defensive WAR, and catcher gives the most by far, and 3rd is like in the middle of that list. (This is all done in an attempt to balance out how defensively valuable the position is in general.)

[@andrewlow5547]

i hadnt had a single generational talent appear in like my first 8 drfafts, get a class with 2 and another SS prospect that was a 69 overall 99 potential, it was crazy

[@tcport018]

I think training plays a decently large role in the sim stats for the players. I typically rotate players through weight room, batting cages, and hitting coach session until I see their performance boost then leave it on that for the rest of my rebuilds.

[@JRT1287]

Love the content brother. Been watching all your vids

[@dpies27yt41]

Love the vids ant keep up the great work

[@nizzlestats]

What do you use as your background music?

[@kevinmccroskey5634]

That was one of the most enjoyable videos I’ve seen in a while. I would definitely like to see a lot more of these

[@dakotamondoni]

Let’s go ant love the content! Go cubbies!

[@Xevoro]

I actually have an uncle named Charlie "Chuck" Riddle. I will have him watch this with me to see his reaction since baseball is coincidentally his favorite sport lol

[@danpearson290]

Ive noticed LAD and CLE are pretty much always in the WS at least 1 of first 2 seasons, if not both. PIT is also sneaky good very quickly in this years game. I’ve also noticed if any team is tanking, they’ll sell off ANY person on their team, including prospects. Saw Royals trade Witt and Melendez in same off season just because they were in last. Crazy year.

[@Bob-rz4cf]

Cleveland never makes it for me

[@okolo22000]

My guess is that Steven Bell regressed sooner because he was playing Catcher perhaps (or does position’s not matter when it comes to regression.)

[@Vtrizzle95]

Love this bro keep it comin

[@KevinMTV]

Alright yeah I need more scouting/drafting videos and even more career sims for these generational talents. Chuck Riddle ftw.

[@supertoast00]

Just FYI they removed the non-active quirks from having high attributes that didn't do anything, the only ones left are the active quirks

[@nbd_mortal]

loved this video!!! love watching career sims ! what are the odds you get 2 in 1 😅

[@kalstorm1620]

great idea for a video, really enjoyed this one!

[@S.General]

Question: if I find more players in one position that is not a need of mine do I scout them? Because in my draft like there’s 10/20 pitchers in my draft

[@alienboitv648]

what were they ranked tho, cuz I'm having trouble finding high ranked guys but low potential

[@travelingman7307]

I still have an operating PS3 and recently purchased MLB 15 the Show. I'm having problems understanding the scouting mode. Forgive me for I haven't played baseball on the PS systems in forever. I know how to play the game though, but Franchise Scouting is a bit much. Any help would be appreciated.

[@KevinMTV]

13:00 maybe they were clutch hits

[@musicvideos5196]

How do you view draft picks like that? Where it shows scouted and actual potential

[@tcport018]

From the franchise menu screen the day after the signing period for draft picks ends

[@wwill999576]

Hey Ant, thanks dude I drafted 2 generational talents, 2 out of my 3 drafts since I used your method . 👍👍

[@rdp430]

The guy that beat chuck riddle for mvp in his 50 hr season was his teammate the year you were checking

[@Gnar_Dogg]

I just drafted a generational right fielder an his stats look nearly identical to both of these. Thinking the game just uses really similar numbers for generational position players.

[@CadChamberlain]

I had a player in MLB22 that had 600 homers and 500 steals for his career with a career OPS pf like .950

[@colinsmith7920]

Idea. Sim 10 years into the future and build a team

[@carlosaldabertomartinez1070]

Love this types of videos!, continue with a starting pitcher

[@Daniel-zi9zo]

Brian Tachiki jus casually hitting 374 in 2030

[@ImGonnasayit]

I found 2 generational prospects too in my draft last night and luckily I had the second pick that year.

[@PeteyRocks13]

can anybody tell me, if i keep the extra inning runner rule on, will it automatically stop once the playoffs start like in real life?

[@KZNiTr0s]

How to do this

[@TyStreets34]

YOU COULD DO 10 YEARS WITH ALL THE DRAFT PROSPECTS POTENTIAL ON LOW AROUND 68 TO 70 WITH ONE 99 POTENTIAL PLAYER.

[@Cyclops1308]

Love that content

[@CadChamberlain]

Shout out Juan Soto getting to 690 home runs in this sim

[@jshare1994]

Lmao what are the hand movements when you say generational I’m dead

[@tannerseaman1]

Good stuff Ant! Do you or anyone in the comments here know if the training plans (or whatever they’re called) actually have an impact on development?

[@henryeckersley]

What potential and overall minimums would you consider a generational talent?

[@rdp430]

Funny how dude from New York stayed on the east coast and dude from Cali got drafted to LA

[@drewdez7]

I found 3 😭 a 1B, SS and C. I only got the catcher though

[@coopercollins1780]

When was Chuck Riddle drafted? Usually the angels are good so they have a late pick

[@matthewmayle0711]

Will Smith was Slapping during this sim.... 🤷🏻‍♂️😂

[@pweezy2000]

I drafted 4 center field generational players in one rebuild lmao

[@S.General]

My drafting is still crap, I even watched your video

[@RevonteSiders-jf2wn]

I was trying to see if maybe I could pay to be put in your upcoming draft class?

[@japes_YT]

did you notice Ohtani was on the DBacks? lol

[@1jimbol]

The regression is so bad, how can't they fix it, it's been 10 years like that

[@thesmokespotnyc]

Dope 🔥

[@JohnM-sw4sc]

When is your teams draft lottery position decided in the game ?

[@YourAverageFan]

Try and get two HOF on the same team from the same draft class.

[@coopercollins1780]

Thought I had my first generational talent draft pick the other day, ended up being a 75 overall with 74 potential 😢

[@RealCGH]

Is Steven Bell was reak this wouldve been the biggest first ballot snub in Hof history with no contreversy

[@ryanhumphrey2309]

The regression system is pretty infuriating

[@yodamasterrob8169]

I drafted a guy that was 21 and had 99 actual potential

[@Cyclops1308]

Chuck riddle is nasty

[@kolbyrust4929]

i drafted 4 90+ in one draft and 2 were 99s with the pirates and my auto save failed and i had to restart😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@the-phanatic-99]

the show is so bad with hof. i say at this point let us pick. its annoying not seeing an 80 plus war guy somehow not get in

[@brown5794]

I almost found three and the other dude was a 73 with a 97 while the other were generational

[@jamaalwhitaker784]

Great sim!

[@notreal-p3z]

one time i found 3 in 3 drafts back to back to back lets say i won 7 ws in 10 years

I found two and a 97 and 96... All after the first round.

[@ParamoreFAV3]

To see regression at 23 or 24 makes no sense. Cmon MLB; they’re literally nowhere near their prime. I just feel like they played us with this logic they talked about that entire franchise stream. It’s still bad.

[@ParamoreFAV3]

Why haven’t they done a better job with making young prospects look young. The ones who just became adults all look over 40 smh.
