BigRog Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 Age: This is the question. Sox prospects has him as 28. The Portland Press-Herald has him as 26. The baseball cube has him as just turning 24. Born: February 5, 1978, August 5, 1982, or some time in 1980? Who knows? home: Pearl Lagoon, Nicaragua Height: 6-2 Weight: 175 Bats: Right Throws: Right Acquired: Minor league free agent (Dec. 2005) scouting report, from soxprospects.com: "Scouting Report: Decent strikeout pitcher who did not play pro ball in 2004-05. Showed some nice flashes in Winter League 05-06. There is some dispute as to Hansack's birthday, as some publications have it listed as August 5, 1982." from the baseball cube http://www.thebaseballcube.com/players/H/d...n-hansack.shtml Signed as an undrafted free agent by the Houston Astros in 1999. 2002: Tri-city, class A, NY-PL: 3-4, 3.60, 50 IP, 44 H, 6 HR, 17 BB, 37 K, 1.22 2003: Lexington, class A, SAL: 10-6, 4.52, 91.2 IP, 100 H, 10 HR, 32 BB, 76 K, 1.44 2004-05: Did not pitch in professional baseball. was released by the Astros March 29, 2004. Played Winter Ball in 2005 in Nicaragua, leading the league in strikeouts with 89." 2006, with AA Portland: 8-7, 3.26, 132.1 IP, 122 H, 14 HR, 124 K, 36 BB From Maine Today: http://sports.mainetoday.com/seadogs/thomas/060827dogs.shtml "Hansack, 26, once pitched for the Houston Astros' organization but was released in 2003. Without another team showing interest, he returned to the small town of Pearl Lagoon in southeast Nicaragua. He seemed destined to remain, pitching in the country's growing professional league... The Astros signed Hansack in 1999. He played two years in the Venezuelan Summer League, then played two seasons of Class A ball. Despite going 10-6 for Lexington in 2003, Houston gave up on him. "I didn't expect that they would release me," Hansack said. "I didn't have an agent so I went home to play in Nicaragua." That might have ended his chance to play in the majors. "Where I live so far (away), maybe no one comes around to see me," he said. But Hansack played for the Nicaraguan national team in a tournament in Holland. There a Boston scout saw him, and Hansack signed last December. He arrived in Fort Myers, Fla., three months later. "I didn't know anything about him," Claus said, "except that he had a good arm." Hansack came to Portland in April and didn't complain about the weather. "I was excited to hook up with a professional team," he said. "It was cold but I could handle it." Claus soon learned to appreciate Hansack, especially as the pitching staff went through so many changes, with five starters promoted. "He's given us a lot of innings and he's filled a lot of roles for us," Claus said. "It seems that every time he pitches, he keeps us in the ballgame." (stats as of 8/27:) Hansack (6-7) has pitched in 29 games, 17 as a starter. He leads the team in innings (122) and strikeouts (112). Among starters he has the lowest ERA (3.53) and his seven quality starts is the best. When he mixes his fastball and slider with his change-up and curve, he's dominant in Double-A, like when he shut out Binghamton for seven innings Tuesday night. "He has some things to learn but I think he has major-league stuff," Claus said. At 26, with only one season in Double-A, could he really make the majors? Guys surface in the big leagues sometimes in their late 20's and early 30's," Claus said. "Guys who never got a chance before."

JoeyMcM93 Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 Totte, I was watching the Yankee game last night. BJ Upton should have A-Rod's hitting stance. Agreed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fred13 Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 I was watching the Jays/Red Sox game yesterday, and I think Pena's stance looks mor elike A-Rods that Chipper's I could be wrong though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UncleMo Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 Totte, question please sir. Check this out. I want to do a project and I'm looking at 7.5 UR, I scroll through my .dat files and notice you use face 916 for asians, of course, but I also look and see that some names look hispanic and yet 916 is assigned. Any particular reason? I can understand if an asian face has a caucasian-american name, because an asian can be born in the US/Europe and have a name like Justin Jones (I made that name up). But I may see in the .dat a hispanic name here and there with face 916 assigned. Why is this? I'm not asking to criticize, but because I'm working on a mod based off of your rosters. Thanks for any assistance. Thanks for your work, too, by the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chwalton213 Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 #68 Devern Hansack Age: 28 Born: February 5, 1978 Pearl Lagoon, Nicaragua Height: 6-2 Weight: 175 Bats: Right Throws: Right Drafted: Not drafted How Acquired: Minor league free agent (Dec. 2005) Scouting Report: Hansack is a lanky righty who throws a lot of strikes. His arsenal includes a four-seam fastball that sits around 92, a two seam fastball with some movement, a good low 80s change-up, as well as a tight slider which he utilizes as his out pitch. Good command of all of his pitches. Forceful delivery. Pitched in the Houston organization from 1999-2003, but was released in the Spring of 2004. In 2004 and 2005 he pitched in a Nicaraguan professional league, where he also had to work as a lobsterman to make ends meet. Hansack is of Creole heritage and speaks Creole, English, and Spanish. Signed by Ben Cherington. There has been some confusion as to Hansack's true age, as his birth year has been listed as 1978, 1980, and 1982, but Boston lists Hansack as being born in 1978.

rolliefingers08 Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 I'm not trying to rush or anything, but can I ask when the next version of UR will be released? (and sorry in advance if it's been posted right in front of my face, its been a long day) I'm just asking because I've had the issues with the 7.5 in the 06 mod and the 7.5 supposed fix that didn't really work for me. Basically, if it's going to be awhile I'll use 7.4 and hope it works, but if it's soon, I'll wait a bit. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only reason I can think of as an explanation for you regarding how a hispanic player has the "916" cyberface is that I've simply used the best looking cyberface to match that players' appearance.

EvErYdAy-EnDy Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 Check out Florida Marlins's Reggie Abercrombie Face ID,I think it may be wrong since it dosen't look like him and his face is a bit off from the arms color,Happy to hear that the beta it's on the way...I also think Anderson Hernandez from the NYM should bat Generic.(Edmonds Type.) Unless you have a better one. BTW, Are you also going to do the Depth Chart? and Startling Lineups/Rotations? Keep up the good work Totte. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In UR 7.5, Abercrombie had the correct cyberface (317) and his skin tone is set to 11 meaning that you can't make it any darker than it already is. I'll keep the stance that Hernandez has at the moment. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
