Forum rules


Requests:
These rules are subject to change at any time. Remember, custom players take time to make just right.

* One player request per person at a time. No exceptions. Post ALL of the required information (name, position, appearance) and as much desired info as possible (desired abilities, stat levels).
* When your request is fulfilled, edit the title of the first post to say so. Make a link to the post if the completion post is deep in the thread.
* Wait a week before bumping an un-answered request. The few of us who are kind enough to offer our services are more than likely busy with other requests or our own players.

Hey there, this idea just came to me, I want to do some underrated players. While these are not stars I wanted ideas on who you think was an underrated asset to a club. I find this hard to explain, but I hope you get the idea.

Doug Fister, definitely.

He kind of gets lost in the shuffle pitching on the same team as Justin Verlander, but he was 9-0 down the stretch last year and was a big component to our playoff run.

Is this what you mean?

Something like that. Or players who were good in their own right but got overshadowed by the talent on the team they player for.

A good example which will come up soon will be CJ Cron at the angels. He can't play catcher anymore due to his shoulder, can't play outfield due to his athleticism and 1B Pujols and Morales have that spot while manning DH from time to time

3B at the diamondbacks and 1B will become a jam a players when Wheeler, Borchering and Davidson graduate (if they do) the minors. Could be great trade bait...

I know Street is already in the game. How about Jesus Montero?

Jesus is in the game, he needs an edit because they gave him all F's and E's and such.

Erm...Mat Latos?

I think Jesus plays for the Mariners, and Miguel plays for the D-backs.

Yep. That's correct. Jesus isn't in the game. Miguel is.

Are you saying it's wrong to talk to a bag of Skittles? Because if so, I'm going to need to rethink a lot of things. :P

I'm of the belief that Borchering will never make it.

Borchering got dealt to the Astros in the Chris Johnson deal. So he'll definitely make it to the majors if he stays with them.

As for underrated players:

Kyle Lohse
Allen Craig
Shin-Soo Choo
Ruben Tejada
Austin Jackson
