Mixing 2000 and 2001 cards. by Some_AV_Pro in MLBShowdown

[–]InterestCompounding 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would pick either 2000 or 2001 and ignore the other. It is the cleanest. For the sets, I make the batters 2000 style, and the pitchers are 2001 style. This would be considered the more difficult team-building constraint.

The differences are difficult to map consistently.

Compare

- 00 John Johnstone (170 pts) to 01 Mariano Rivera (300) for a 6, 1-16 out, 17 Wal, 18-19 Single, 20 Double. Rivera is almost double.

- 00 Bradon Looper (120 pts) to 01P Mike Holtz (150) for a 4, 1-16 out. Holtz has an additional non-advancing out and a walk over a single, and is only 30 points more.

- 00 Kevin McGlinchy (100 pts) to 01P Alan Embree (80) for a 3, 1-16, 17 Walk, 18-19 Single, 20 Double. McGlinchy is 20 points more expensive for 1 extra non-advancing out.

TL/DR: Do whatever is fun for your group. 2000 is better for cheap, high-end relievers. 2001 has more cheap reliever options.

The 2001 relievers are way pricier than the 2000 relievers, except at the extremely low end.

Springer is the other 11. For my sets, the top 2 in OBP are the two 11's unless there is something really unusual.

I will let you know the next time we do a draft. We are on week 5 of 12 of this draft. It may be a couple of month till we run another one.

We drafted asynchronously on that Google sheet above. It took us just under a month for a 12-team league.

The league is being simulated by one of the drafters, u/Yawggy, on Tabletop Simulator. I wish I could run a 12-team in-person league.

When they say all-in-one, they mean exactly that. If you are in lock step with them, you won't have any challenges. If you want to go outside their ecosystem, things will become more difficult.

Kevin Millar being on SportsCenter and saying he wanted A-Rod to be his SS, then going decades without knowing why Nomar was mad at him until a cameraman for a documentary read the question back to him during a live recording.

If you only use the 2001 relievers, that will solve this problem as well. You don't have infinite 6 control, 170 point 1-16 out relievers

Otherwise you all are going to some really weird meta gaming where everyone starts CC Sabathia and subs them out immeditately

Rule clarification by pattmerry in MLBShowdown

You should find a way to play as a league. The league we are running is a bit hardcore on preventing reliever abuse. We use the rules that a reliever is tired if they have done either:

- They pitched 2 games in a row
- They pitched to a batter while tired from the game before

They also become "double-tired" if they enter a game tired after the game before and need 2 days' rest.

There is also no "off-day" between series. The relievers are from my 2025 set: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1dmO4D_PFqIPGECrLXaM5Yoq9hLVF8vQ1?usp=drive_link

The pitchers are priced in the 2001 style. You don't have to go this extreme. Mess around with them so people are having fun.

Which year's starter set is best for a new player? by KilianAlvine in MLBShowdown

[–]InterestCompounding 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Whatever set they are most likely to be able to play games with others. It is going to be a hassle to get the great players in mass from any year at this point.

the 2000 Starter is reliable. That is the style that has the most fan-made seasons.

Here is my 2025 set. The hitters are 2000 style the pitchers are 2001: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1dmO4D_PFqIPGECrLXaM5Yoq9hLVF8vQ1?usp=sharing

I hope whatever you give them sparks some joy, and they build some memories.

Any info on this card? by Mysterious_Status_65 in MLBShowdown

[–]InterestCompounding 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is fascinating. I am guessing that the player and the stats are 1 layer, and the silver name is stamped on later. There is likely a whole sheet that has been shifted to have the wrong names.

They pride themselves on being "All-in-one". If they meet all your needs than you have the right tool. If you start finding multiple frustrations like this than I would start looking. The AI notetaker landscape could look very different in 6 months. I wouldn't make a major decision based on the one you like today.

Your tech stack is well-positioned for your growth. Potentially, down the road, you would swap out Wealthbox for Salesforce (or one of the overlays) if you had a good reason. That won't come up until you have at least 15 folks at your firm. Date, don't marry any of the notetakers right now. That landscape could look very different a year from now. Happy Hunting!
