As a rookie to both the Show and baseball in general the whole layout of franchise in general is kinda confusing in general but I’m piecing it together.
I noticed that the efficiency mainly takes a hit when scouting out of region. Like about 50% longer. I go with discovery+pitching, discovery+position, efficiency+pitching, efficiency+position. I do contact+power/speed and right/left+velocity. Seeing it takes years for players to reach potential I take overall slightly over potential. So I'd take a 75 potential 65 overall over a 80 potential 55 overall. Works pretty well. I hit about 3 to 5 guys per draft. Just in my experience, hope it helps.
Yeah Ant! These are the more in depth videos I love. I enjoy the short term rebuilds but I would love more franchise tips and maybe a single longterm franchise project too.
Great video and tips. Especially with the regions, it can help with morale down the road. Also with the different regions, you would know, not all scouts are created equally. So I like to specialize certain scouts to focus on either position players/pitchers and even Efficiency when your team has already been winning. Good tips on assigning scouts also.
I’ve found choosing contact and power for scouting causes a lack of players to populate. Once I switched to contact and fielding I started to see better players
Just franchise tips in general would be great. Trying to un-automate my franchises this year (usually I automate just about everything except lineups and trades) so anything helps
fuck king of the 4th quarter, my man is king of the 9th inning. good content for people who like to listen to something while they play the video game ur playing. love the channel.
Excellent video as always. But man, franchise is just the same. Just started playing 21 today and seeing simple things like a rolling interleague schedule from year to year is not there. That's pathetic. My OCD really hates the lack of attention to franchise. Same year to year.
@@MVPheonix Facebook marketplace! But bro, just google PS5 throughout the day. They restock them at least once or twice a day on different websites. Walmart got some in last night but they’re selling them for 1350!

Hey man on the players cards where they have the blue bar for current and green for scouted... does that basically mean the blue is where he is now, and the green is where he would be at full potential.. or the blue is where he is now but the green is what he actually currently is after scouting?
Great video, just a quick question. I know it’s not in this vid but do you know how to get to the trade management page? I can’t seem to figure it out. Thanks
There's trades. It's in the hand shaking picture section. Also at the bottom of the screen it says, trade talks or view trade block. That's the trade stuff
I noticed something insane.I traded for Trevor Story and I’m the Indians GM,I signed him to a 9 year deal and the next year in the first 60 games he has 19 homers .325 Average and a OPS of 1.020 WTF
what happens if you do not set a scouting directive? is this for discovering players to add to the prospect pool? or its a directive on who to scout in the player pool? i manually scout, so i do not put any scouting directive?
Your actually scouting very inefficiently. It’s a lot easier to scout using a simple formula. Also, while per 9’s are important for swimming, they along with control are the only attributes that improve on a pitcher. Velocity and break do not. So I would rather have a pitcher with “good stuff” because his per 9’s will evolve organically. Per 9’s are useless if your guy has sub par stuff
can you import custom draft classes? Like having a draft with real prospects from college and high school? I know madden and nba 2k have this feature and was wondering the same for the show?
DOES NOT MATTER! AFTER YOU DRAFT YOUR PLAYER AND SIGN THEM, THEY DO NOT ENTER YOUR MINOR LEAGUES THE PLAYER JUST VANISHES !!! ON THE PS4 NOT SURE ABOUT PS5
How do you tell the difference between between the ‘bust’ player and a+ player because they both are eta 2025+ and they both have low player stats - in that case do I look at the potential?
i tried to skip through and find it, but i’m like a week past the draft and i can’t find any of my players even though i signed them all already. why is that?
Thx for the tips. They’re pretty useful, since this is my first time playing the game as an Xbox user
How was the expirience?
@@rafaelduval228 preordered it. Just have to go pick it up.

They really need to revamp the draft/scouting for next years game
shame we just got a reskin :(

ok, good to know! Thanks for the tips!
Wow, That was really useful! Thank you so much man. I sucked last year at scouting. Now I know why, lol!

I tend to do the same but am gonna try to do a more in-depth deep dive this year and see how it goes
@@Born2BDown1981 U big mad
My scouting strategy is just to hire the best scouts and have them do it. When draft day comes around pick high ovr with 80 potential
This video is super helpful. Thank you so much!
I thought of something I need. More of your awesome content in my life! Love these masterpieces!
Love you man can’t wait for the great content you’ll be putting out in the show 21!
Definitely a helpful video those 5th and 6th round coin flips are always fun
This video has helped me a ton on drafting players to fit my team thank you!
I got lucky on my tiger’s rebuild and drafted a 77 overall RF @ 18 yrs old
Please do a 10 year legend fantasy draft rebuild for me!
Back to back bangers
Thanks. Very helpful. 1st time Xbox player here, feel more comfortable with FM now
Lowkey wish I had an Xbox rn lol
Drafting seems very similar -- any sense if player progression/regression is any different yet?
Looking forward to the show rebuilds
please do a RTTS, would love to see it from you

I needed this b/c I can’t play my rookies
I like to discover each position for 5 days and particular players for 3 days
Thanks for this video it help me outs
Yo is that the Winter Solider
Still watching this now need a refresh so thanks!
no need for a new video cause the scouting in MLB 22 is the same
Don’t have 21 yet but I know this video is gonna be extremely helpful! Thanks for the tips

can you edit draft classes this year?

Great Video bro 🤘🤘
I would love tips on what to look for in a player you want to sign, trade or draft.
Thank you for these tips, I’m about 24 days from my first draft and I have about 30 guys scouted fully
This vide helps me because I’m so bad in scouting and in the draft
Why do you have players with high accuracy after initial scouting. I only get that with individually scouted players
How to you change the draft class
Hey man on the players cards where they have the blue bar for current and green for scouted... does that basically mean the blue is where he is now, and the green is where he would be at full potential.. or the blue is where he is now but the green is what he actually currently is after scouting?
Can we see player's secondary position during draft this year? It seems that this bug had been existed for years.
can you make a video about budget and how to deal with budget
Great video, just a quick question. I know it’s not in this vid but do you know how to get to the trade management page? I can’t seem to figure it out. Thanks
There's trades. It's in the hand shaking picture section. Also at the bottom of the screen it says, trade talks or view trade block. That's the trade stuff
When you look at the player card there are two bars. Current and Scouted. What changes on those bars when you scout a player?
Hey I been watching some of your videos. I cant seem to find you on twich. What is your ID?
Can you actually train pitchers break and velocity this year?
Show us stadium creator and how far in or out you can make the walls for an offline stadium

I need the ofsm roster please soon!! Full minor roster
TheAntOrtiz = The 🐐
I cant believe they still didn't put the ETA on prospects on their actual player card AFTER being drafted. smh
When are the ten year rebuilds coming back and if your going to do a team can you do the rangers next please. Thanks
can you import custom draft classes? Like having a draft with real prospects from college and high school? I know madden and nba 2k have this feature and was wondering the same for the show?
I wish
Can you change the draft class in franchise to irl incoming draft class ?
did you find an answer to this?
Your the Goat
Can you please do a best fielders rebuild?
Color scheme hard to look at? MLB 22: Hold my beer.
When are the rebuilds with every team starting I can’t wait for that I’m so excited?

Like for a franchise rebuild
Do a fantasy draft plz

Can you create a roster please

like a franchise series? Yes!
