... that magical time of year when a young man's prowess at shortstop turns to power... or something. Anyway, here's the spring training deal. You can alter as many players as you want - more than 5 - but if you want to be nice to me, you won't do TOO many. Also, I think it's sort of a crock that you can't use spring training to increase stealing ability, so I'm going to let you. Here's how that will work: Increase from E to D: 1 point Increase from D to C: 1 point Increase from C to B: 2 points Increase from B to A: 3 points I'm basing this on the fact that a player with E stealing probably can just be shown a few basic concepts in order to be D quality.. but the advancement from B to A may include picking up extremely subtle pitching motions, or something. Anyway, the way this will work is you still have 20 points overall to assign to contact, power, strike zone judgment, and defense. Default for stealing will be set to 0. This just means there will be no increase in stealing. Probably no one will use that function, but it's an option. Spring training might be simmed tonight between 7 and 9 central time; if not, it'll be Sunday afternoon/evening.
