2013 MLB 2K Trade Help Thread

First off I give all credit for the information in this spreadsheet to ACMilan99 and Totte over on the MLB The Show forums here on Operation Sports. For the many of you who may know about the spreadsheet that they have created, all I have done for all of the MLB 2K users is that I have converted all of the trade values from the MLB The Show value system to the MLB 2K value system that uses stars and arrows. The spreadsheet is using Totte and ACMilan99's base from the date of Thursday, July 18th 2013. All updating following that date will be done by me.

Current Version Accurate As Of Wednesday, July 18th 2013: MLB 2K Trade Spreadsheet

I hope that this can help some of the users here on the MLB 2K side of the baseball gaming forums. If you have any questions or need any help with trades (I'm not very good, but I'll give my opinion) and such, don't be afraid to ask. Also, all comments and suggestions are much appreciated!

Just so you know, I'm constantly updating this thing. I'll try and keep track of any changes I make. The last two I made were making Dustin Pedroia's value Mid A/Low A/High C and Brett Lawrie's value Low A/Low B.

Fancy seeing you over here with us xbox heads. I gave you a little breakdown of what I think about letter-star conversions between the Show and 2K over in the Show trade thread. Feel free to ask for clarification on anything that isn't already clear.

Thanks for the info about Pedroia and Lawrie's ratings! Did you put Lawrie's position as a secondbaseman or did you leave him as a third baseman for now? Also, I didn't get a PM from you yet (not sure if you sent it or not).

What do you think about the trends of the players? For example:

High A = 5 Stars, Up Trend
Mid A = 5 Stars, Diagonal Trend
Low A = 5 Stars, Diagonal Trend/No Trend/Down

Nah I've been looking over the spreadsheet and trying to figure out if there's some efficient way to change both without having to PM a ton of the time but I'm drawing a blank.

The best thing I could imagine would be granting me editing privileges and I'd update it too whenever I make a change to the main one.

Honestly, I'm not really a fan. I just don't think there's anything we can do to mitigate the differences in the rating systems. The arrows don't really have anything to do with how high the progression will go in the A/B (5/4 star) range, but just that it's going in that direction.

My thought would be to keep the original spreadsheet at face value (with letters) and just make a note that the values are based on a letter grade system (that has nothing to do with the video game itself) and the goal is to match 2 players up to find a fair trade.

We could make a spreadsheet tracking all of the player changes in a separate doc and I could give you editing permission... Other than that, I'm not sure...
