Sexson=Jeter; same body and bat movement, and basic stance.

Orlando Hudson=Walker or Ortiz

Eric Hinske=Pujols; same basic stance, but Pujols has a little more movement involved

I don't want to have to say this again! PUT THE ENTRIES IN THE FORMAT I HAVE ON THE LIST! IT MAKES IT A HELL OF A LOT EASIER TO JUST COPY-PASTE ENTRIES IN!

 TEAM  [b]Player: Stance/Delivery[/b]
Example
TOR [b]John Doe: Zito[/b]

Jose Reyes NYM-Beltre

I have Ryes as Jeromy Burnitz.

Any1 else have any other batting stances or deliveries for the Mets. These are the changes i made:

Reyes- Burnitz

Victor Diaz- Manny Ramirez

Miguel Cairo- Hideki Matsui

I dont no about Matsui. Because of the no Mets on MSG OR FSNY i cant see his stance and i dont think he has the right 1. any other ideas?

I haven't posted here in a while but I have watched a few games over the week and noticed

TOR Orlando Hudson: A-Rod

BOS Trot Nixon: C. Jones (he has no toe tap like K. Matsui)

BOS D. Mirabelli: Beltre

Min: Johan Santana: ? His Pitching Deliverie seems off...

Jim Edmonds, Erubiel Durazo, and Bubba Crosby have the same batting stance. And unfortunately, there isn't any specific one in the game that matches it. It's a weird combination of Generic 1, Boone, and Chavez, not specifically one of them, but a combination of all three.

Any ideas on what to do about this?

PAW Hanley Ramirez: Lofton

Just watched the top 50 prospects show on mlb.com and saw some footage of him in the cage. His lower half has a little Manny in him, but his hands and bat angle are perfect with Lofton's stance. Knees slightly bent, everything seems in check.

Are the roster editors for the ultimate project still updating stances according to our list...just out of curiousity?

WAS J. Guillen: Griffey Jr.

I tried a bunch for Guillen to try and replicate his high back elbow and bat motion. Griffey may be a bit more vertical in his stance, and Guillen is ever so slightly open. But if you look at him on mlb.com from the behind the pitcher cam, this is a great match. You can't see his hands because they're just above his shoulder behind his head, not high and off the shoulder like Vlad's stance...which I was considering. Take off his elbow protector too, he doesn't use it and makes it look like his front elbow is too far over the plate!

ATL Adam LaRoche: Klesko, Thome, Thomas

If the Big Hurt was open, this would be a no brainer. But he's not, so you're left with Klesko, the only hitter who's open and remotely resembles LaRoche. Thome does a bit, but his hands are positioned very differently. He stands tall with no leg movement at all, that's the most distinguishing quality IMO of Rochie. His only activity at the plate is his rythmic bat motion to start his swing and his feet are almost diagonally open. Impossible to perfect, but Klesko is better than generic options.

Just wanted to give some options on a tough call. There's just no way to give LaRoche his pretty one handed swing either.
