Hey, as someone who nearly exclusively plays franchise mode, there are a couple things that could help you. First, the overall ratings for the prospects are their overall's at the time of being drafted, with their potential's being their "ceiling" or max potential (position players that are 18, with an overall at ~80 have a high chance at having a 99 potential). Second tip, hiring staff (both coaches and scouts) is very important. For scouts, ideally all of them should have high scouting efficiency as this helps build the players interest in signing with the team. Next, i would also recommend that you set 2 scouts (ideally with over 90 efficiency and pitcher accuracy) to scout the starting pitching position for the east, central, west, and international zones (if each zone is scouted for 7 weeks, you can scout almost every starting pitcher in the draft) and leave one scout for position players. TheAntOrtiz has a couple scouting guides on his channel. If you are wondering why you only have one scout for position players, it's because it is nearly impossible to get a good one later than the first round, meaning that basically all of your draft picks (for maximum efficiency) should be starting pitchers (besides the first round if there is a position player that you like). Keep in mind that you can trade the good pitchers that you get for any good position players that other teams may end up drafting. Edit, If you are looking for extra outfielders, GET TRAVIS JANKOWSKI. He almost always ends up playing well over a full season, especially if you have him hitting leadoff, and playing in centerfield.
At 40:12 guerrero hit .311 with 57hr and 150 RBI Hes nestled right in between soto who hit .277 with 44 hr and devers who hit .289 38hr amd 109 rbi. Omg that 3-4-5 is fucking insane
In case you ever try this again, one of the few last tips you need to know to help manage better in offseason When you try to sign or extend players…change their roles(depending on player) and if it’s somebody you really want, make the payout “back end pay” most players gain more interest like that
Settings > user settings > mode specific > injury management > MLB only. This changes it to only notify you to make a lineup change when an mlb player gets injured. Way less notifications.
Kevin, the overall on scouting prospects is the overall they currently are. The potential range is their potential overall. Also you shouldn’t just scout 3 players and call it good. Scout positions and regions and change it like every so often once they’re fully scouted. You can also scout individual players but you’re not going to be able to scout nearly as many as when you scout a position
This is legitimately the best video presentation I have seen for MLB the show franchise mode. I have been a die hard FIFA / Madden player. Just got into the game. It’s insane. Love it. I was cracking up folding my family of 5’s clothes.
Key to shutting down teams in crucial situations, is to stop simulation and actually play out the inning as pitcher because it seems that the computer will screw it all up.
I've noticed also that Bobby Witt is super easy to trade for in franchise. I think it's just bc of his big contract, for some reason in this game it's easier to trade for a player who just got a big contract than a player in their last year of arb. Not sure if it's still like that if you are trading with a playoff caliber team, but irl he's probably as close to untradable as you could be so this should def be changed.
Yea Franchise mode is kinda broken, when I first got.the game I did a Jays franchise and the computer accepts a Justin Turner/Alex Manoah for Bobby Witt Jr trade...in fact I think you could also get Mikhail Garcia if you included a D potential player too. It was pretty stupid.
Next time try to sign some younger players with A potential and around a 80 overall to start. They are much cheaper and just as good you also have alot more control of them. And for drafting sign new and better scouts as soon as you start. You will be giving more accurate stats on them. Also for scouting use the scout position button it will scout a bunch of players at the same time.
The Jays are Canada's Mets, haven't won a title in 30+ years and find new and unique ways to lose in the most humiliating fashion. Us Jays and Toronto sports fans have the roughest life imaginable.
For future rebuilds kev, use custom sliders and turn down the injury frequency. I have no clue why the sim has always been so injury heavy in this game but it’s a million times more enjoyable if you just go in and turn it down some
Oh God!!!....Kevin, are you gonna do a real rebuilt or are you gonna be one of those crazy owners who rebuilt everything through free agency? You know, like the crazy guy who bought the A's a few days ago, lol........
How come you can’t trade draft picks in mlb the show. Or can you. I’m new the game. Would help with making more trades instead of player for player trades.
22:18 Kevin not realizing he left Kevin Gausman in the whole time
Kevin has returned after getting Passan’d. Never expected him to come back this soon!

Bellinger with a cool .276-35-82 from the 7 hole
Lmao Gausman left in the game for 21 runs haha
Why does Kevin want to see gausman suffer so much
😂😂

Why does every UA-camr who plays this mode fail to realize when you select auto utilize on anything it’s going to reset your lineup lmao

I love how he traded Kirk 12 times and yet he was still on the team XD
Kevin rebuilding a random NCAA college football team would be the best content ever (him knowing nothing about football)
He watches football I’m pretty sure, I think he’s a (don’t quote me) jets fan
@@Austin-oq6gm He has the accent of a Jets fan.
He has played on MADDEN before, and very good

BTW I NEED MORE

Kevin means business when he half ass ties a tie
This time he has raw emotion invested in the process if they fail
please keep doing these rebuildings
Juts found out about you today now one of my favorite mlb the show content creators

If he keeps playing like this, that contract may very well be a steal
The cut to Kevin in a tie saying "Not Today." Pure cinema.
Absolutely loved this! Was cheering, laughing pissing meself, head in my hands!!! All the emotions watching this!!! Subscribed!!! 😂
I decided to watch this video while I fall asleep. The video finishes and I'm wide awake and I check the time and it's 2:06 AM... yikes
Tbh love this series of videos! Keep it up!
You can have an elite bullpen with a lower overall, they just need high H/9 and BB/9
Sir, The Blue Jays Are Not The Same This Year, I Hope They Can Turn It Around.
Yea Franchise mode is kinda broken, when I first got.the game I did a Jays franchise and the computer accepts a Justin Turner/Alex Manoah for Bobby Witt Jr trade...in fact I think you could also get Mikhail Garcia if you included a D potential player too. It was pretty stupid.
17:26 Bro thought Drew Waters was Dylan Crews

This guy has a great way of talking and reacting!
Loving the franchise mode videos. Hopefully you keep it going
Enjoy you rebuilding your squad! Can’t wait to see what they do this trade deadline
you know diamond dynasty is cooked when we're getting franchise videos in May
WE NEEDED THIS BLUE JAYS PLEASE HIGHER KEVIN FOR THE GM SPOT ROSS YOU SUCK
I recommend turning injury down in the sliders in future rebuilds. Whenever I am playing franchise mode I feel like every two days I have an injury
Never seen your channel before this video was very cool and good
this was an amazing journey. Soto was a huge signing, and DEVERS!!

as a canadian who’s only happy time in baseball was bautista/pillar etc this is a must watch
Love these videos man, not sure if you can, but can you do one of the teams that haven't won a world series yet? Also Vlad for MVP
After what we’ve just seen in hip hop this past month, Toronto beating LA is just ironic
Love this series please keep them coming
I'd love to see Kevin try and rebuild a team in Out of the Park, now that would be entertaining
"Bo gets a single, Vlad walks... Oh my shit devers hit a triple"
2 seconds later
"We scored 2 runs. What happened? I didn't even see"
Lol
Hey Kevin when doing contracts the option let’s you give them the star role and they accept more contracts
Game 3 vs Houston had blue jays mariners vibes almost
Kevin back as being the general manager. Make the Jays great again
22:15 so when do yall think he’ll learn he needs to make the pitching changes?
These franchise videos are EPIC
That was super entertaining… Great Job Kevin
You should make another one of these but you can only sim and don't leave until you win world series
The only person who can get me hyped watching franchise mode 😊😂
Kevin, do the Mets next please !
WE DID IT KEVIN!!!! CHAMPS!! GO CRAZY FOLKS!
I think after you worked Gausman wlel beyond the point of exhaustion with the 21 run game, he made it his life mission to fuck with you
This video was epic. Great work sir
Oh God!!!....Kevin, are you gonna do a real rebuilt or are you gonna be one of those crazy owners who rebuilt everything through free agency? You know, like the crazy guy who bought the A's a few days ago, lol........
what a series!!!
If you quick manage the game you have to manually change the pitcher lol. That was terrible
This guy is actually funny i subscribed just cause he is funny idc about mlb
Not me screaming PUT VARSHO IN CENTRE FIELD
Great video seris concept, you should start doing all the teams
I love these kinds of videos!
“Bring him to the back alley and I’m coming out with a shotgun” is crazy lol
Happy that the Blue Jays win in Kevin's dreams at least
That year 2 team with Soto was stackeddd
the dodgers have inexplicably started Gavin Stone at DH 1:06:04
2 back to back rebuilds? That’s what I like
these are outstanding - great work
Now we need a Toronto Maple Leafs rebuild lol
Can you do more franchise videos?
You putting Devers in a blue jay uniform is sickening to me! 😂 -Red Sox fan!
Go into the settings and automate minor league injuries. Its just not there on the settings when you are creating the franchise
Every time you scout everyone in the first round like you could get them all. Not the sharpest tool eh ?
Lineups are getting messed up if you are “auto fixing” the lineups when players are no longer injured
5:57 yes it is
The White Sox are in a bigger mess than any other mlb team at the moment and it’s not even close
Blue jays in real life are in a tough situation there not bad to tank and get a good pick but not good enough to compete for the world series
Kevin you only get notifications on 90+ in free agency I believe
might be the funniest gm mode ive ever watched
Dang '24 season how long did you sim? Oh.... damn
My Angels would absolutely DESTROY your Blue Jays in every form !
I was wondering he took a week off. He elected into a week of pain instead
How come you can’t trade draft picks in mlb the show. Or can you. I’m new the game. Would help with making more trades instead of player for player trades.
MLB teams can’t trade draft picks
Welcome to Behind baseball with Jordan Peterson. I know this can't be an original joke but for its mine for what its worth. Haha
Kevin almost went to Murky Waters
now for the truly impossible task...rebuilding the Toronto Maple Leafs (NHL)
Holby Milner is consistent from everytmie I've signed him
Honestly step 1 of doing this in real life is getting rid of both Atkins and Shapiro
Bro. Gausman had no more energy and you kept him in, totally tanking anybchance. Lol
Theres two lineups LHP w DH and RHP w DH
44:20 it was 5 to,3 actually.
Bring your talent to the Rockies Kevin
Kevin’s been petrified from BR
Cool series, but gameplay shouldn't be on veteran when you take over.. Make it a challenge
Im rebuilding the Rockies and want to light the whole team on fire and just grab a bunch of free agents
"I Rebuilt the Most DIFFICULT MLB Franchise"
and it wasnt the Marlins?
Bro started a "rebuild" by trying to trade for Rafael Devers and Kenley Jansen 😅😅
Will Smith won the game by striking out Will Smith
kevins dream blue jays win world series.
