    I hope this helps you guys with your drafts in MLB the Show 23 Franchise! What are some other techniques and strategies you guys have for drafting in Franchise Mode?

    I just drafted a SS and he is 82 overall and 99 potential! Talk about generational! I love this new scouting. It's a breath of fresh air

      I kinda figured it out since I don't think he understands what we're asking. The only way to view your prospect board is when you're setting assignments. If you've set all scouts to scout positions already the only way to get to the prospect list is to cancel an assignment and reassign to "scout prospect"
      That is the only way to my knowledge you can view a prospect board and imo a design flaw from the devs

    I did two drafts before I watched your video and completely bombed both of them with one player being over an 85 potential and then I watched your video and just did a drafted and had 4 players with 90+ potential.. sick stuff.. good job brother!

  • @jessegrinstead

    Are the signing bonuses doing anything to curtail trade cheese? It has always been stupid easy to snag draft picks in trades the following offseason, so it would be nice if that came at some kind of significant cost now.
    Also, is the signing bonus money pool tied to the overall budget, or is it this completely separate pool of money? Does anything determine how much signing bonus money that you have?

    • @OctogonalGaming
      @OctogonalGaming  Рік тому +2

      I think the signing bonuses are just to make things more realistic to simulate how the real MLB Draft goes. I’d assume this money is tied into your team budget but I’m not 100% sure

      I think it’s still easy lol, when I first got the game I did a Red Sox franchise and the pirates drafted an 81 ovr 99 potential CF and I got him for some low ovr decent potential prospects and verdugo lol

    • @jofieji5312
      @jofieji5312 Рік тому

      Yeah it’s still super easy to trade for the prospects you missed. I personally made a rule not to do it though because it feels unrealistic plus giving myself that limitation makes the draft super fun. If I hit I hit if I miss I just leave the player on the team that won and got them. I’ll trade for them 3 or 4 seasons down the line once they are better if I really like them that way it feels more realistic and not like I’m cheating.
