Posting:

* Individual players should be in their own thread, with the full name of the player and position(s) in the title. Don't add superlatives or any other shout outs to it... we will see your guys...
* If you post a team or a set of players, add players by editing your starting post so they're all in the same post. A bump to announce the edit is appropriate.
* Posting images are fine, provided they are small in dimension and data. 800x600 and ~50Kb should be the biggest you can post inline (using the [IMG] tag), anything larger, post a link or a clickable thumbnail instead.
* If you have wiki rights, add your player(s) and team(s) there as well!

Just a few things - Aceves was only 25 in June 2008, so make sure you use his 2008 age, and not his 2010 age, or else the game will make him older that he should be.

D stamina sounds good - he goes 3 innings a few times, and can start when necessary. Even real low C might make sense. Making these SP/RP types in MLBPP is always tough - too little stamina and they'll NEVER start, too much stamina and they'll ALWAYS start.

I've seen his cutter described as 'little' by his AA catcher, so lvl 3 might be much? But the pitch types are right. And he throws the CB/CHG/CUT all the time, 20% or so each, so they all must work a little. Any of them being lvl 2s is fine, but I'd shy away from lvl 3 to not make him overpowering. Your choice tho - you probably see him pitch more. :)

Not sure any abilities are necessary.

I think you should do "Lucky" for Aceves because he wins so many games.

Alfredo is done, the stats are just about perfect (i did tweak a few). I did get the Lucky ability along with Vs Lefty 4 and Gd Low Pitch, because of some extra reports that i read.
I believe the only thing i did wrong was i messed up his age. Instead of 25 i accidentally made him 28, i thought i switched it, guess not.

Now the only thing left to do is to get the pictures, but at the moment my camera seems to be on the fritz. So as soon as i get that fixed i'll get the pictures.
