Sports franchise gaming channel committed to bringing you some banger franchise content all year round. Mostly focused on Madden, NBA 2K, and MLB the Show. Main focus is on long term series, but occasionally I do one off challenge rebuilds or team rebuilds.
Safety vs Upside in the 2030 MLB Draft!! MLB the Show 24 Draft Only Franchise E.62
The Colorado Rockies are stuck in a bad spot. In a division they've never won in their 30 year history and it's not getting any easier. The Dodgers have Shohei and others with an endless payroll, the Diamondbacks just won the NL and have a young team only getting better, and the Padres have major star power themselves.
So it's time to try something completely new to try and overcome these odds: A Draft Only Rebuild.
A staple of the channel, the Draft Only Rebuild challenges us to build the team up using only the Rookie and Rule 5 drafts after we tear down the ENTIRE 40 man roster after the first season.
One major twist added for this year: Trades. I am allowing 3 trades in this series, but only for prospects, and only for one prospect per trade. So we will need to time them right and make sure they hit to ensure we don't waste them.
I am EXTREMELY excited for this project, and if you are too, PLEASE hit the like button on the video and Subscribe to the channel if you haven't already.
Drop any comments about suggestions for the series, I read them all and take all suggestions into consideration.

Vic Kang is an auto draft just for the name
Neil Dorsey for President 🙏
He'd win in a landslide. Home run candidate.
@@fiendfranchise ngl fiend u got me thru some tuff times and moments these past mo the and I’m glad I got to enjoy these videos brother thank you and god bless you man
@@JDotfrom973thanks for supporting the channel, happy to help!
did you ever figure a way to spot a generational SP ?
@@robertcarlyle4946 same as when I made the scouting video
Neil Dorsey is a beast
@@jackpeet8501 quite a beast
This is my first time ever playing one of the versions of MLB The show. Is it normal for it to be so easy to find good pitching prospects through Discovery but very difficult to find any other position? Every draft I can draft 5-6 good to great discovery pitchers. Catcher is nearly impossible. IF and OF are rare. It's frustrating. I end up just trading pitching prospects for the few good top of the draft to non pitchers that other teams draft and still have a loaded pitching staff
@@chrisrhodes2 yeah that’s just how the game has been with this new scouting. I would say discovering catcher is just not worth it unless that’s the only position you want. Pitchers are much more obtainable than hitters with how they’ve set up these drafts
neil dorsey triple crown watch
👀👀
Fontenot would probably be too low rated. His high potential doesnt really matter if he is meant to be a backup. Might as well go for the higher OVR Vargas. I think this was an excellent draft on your part. So hard when your team is winning to get good players.
@@paulmd7747 yeah I think Vargas will start out better which is why I went that direction. I think both will end up being solid though.
Did you notice that the DO-ble is also top 3 in Runs? He gets on base, hits dingers and gets points. The Do is so much fun in how he's working out. Him and Brown are really representing for Short King power! Hahahaha The draft went great, I would have taken the pitcher Leland over Fontinoe also, the bullpen is what needs to most resources, and he looks like a great candidate to take over Smeltzer's role. Go Rockies!
@@Odd_Thomas yeah Brian Do is awesome. Was a perfect add to what we have.
Man the draft gets rough when you have almost all your main positions filled and you are picking in the backend due to the success of your team.
@@paulmd7747 yeah we’re in a really tough spot.
Harry Armstrong went the pick right before you at 104. Unlucky
You didn't notice it at first but you did later haha. Crazy
@@joshackley2496 super unlucky.
Hans Zimmer? Really, The Show?
@@joshackley2496 these games love to make some great names.
If there is a player that you don't want to miss out on I have yet to comprehend why content creators have to think about taking anyone else lol
@@FarajiCouncil I’m not sure which pick you’re referring to in this particular case, but for me it usually has to do with weighing whether I should gamble on the player I want most lasting until my next pick and getting extra value or just taking that person now. In this draft specifically I just skipped ahead to my picks when usually I let the draft play out and it gives me more time to come up with my preferred strategy for the selection.
@@fiendfranchise the one where you said you didn't want to miss out on him but then acted like you were going to take the second catcher 😂 I'm like ok if you don't want to miss out on him then nothing else should be said
@@FarajiCouncil he’s a NR player. There’s a decent chance he could have been there at pick 105 so I was judging if Fontenot was worth taking that risk. I didn’t need to take him at 60 to not miss out on him necessarily.
@@fiendfranchise oh ok I understand now that actually makes sense
Let's goo!!!
Definitely did not expect Figueroa to have those numbers, super impressive! If he keeps this up he'd deserve a potential increase, he had 80 potential last year and is already playing above that
@@nolanzils873 great season from him. I’ve already manually increased his potential once I don’t think I’ll do it again.
Interesting you have everyone going up against lefties. I had the opposite in mine, mostly saw increases against righties
@@chrisrhodes2 I wish I had more people going up against righties
Dorsey back-to-back MVP. Best player all time showing up. Has anyone won the Cy Young, MVP, and Triple Crown all in one year? HE WILL!!!!! THE GOAT!!! THE GOOOOOOAAAAAAAT!!!!
@@paulmd7747 cy young is very tough in coors but I hope he can do it.
If freeland can get close he can win it
Vergara is ranked so much lower than Fontenot because of their Potential I bet. Fontenot seems like he will be 85 Pot/58 Ovr or something like that. Vergara maybe 78/61. Vergara is looking closer to being MLB ready, might be the better option for a backup C considering his hitting will likely be much better.
@@paulmd7747 yeah vergara will probably be higher overall to start. I’d take either player in the draft.
Any Idea who the team will be for next year
@@EunoiaRust haven’t even started thinking about it. Somebody from a strong division.
Neil Dorsey is still doing Neil Dorsey things 😂 he is the man!
@@michaellong5849 amazing player. If only I could get some clutch moments in these episodes from him
Brian Do or veen gonna take over
@@Slizezoko hopefully both
Huge opening day, lets go Rockies!!!!
Would've preferred the dub but you cant win em all
These offseason episodes are the only reason i dont lose 30 players before spring training, restarted my 1st two franchises before i got to the 1st offseason episode, didnt know anything about mlb constract until the 1st offseason of the series, im almost caught up to real time 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Glad to be of service
How do u get right to like the highlights u know what I mean?
@@MilesTheGod editing. I watch every pitch and edit it down.
@@fiendfranchise oh, thanks btw
Team is gonna be a dynasty over the next 10ish seasons with good health luck🎉🎉🎉🎉
@@danielkirby6348 I certainly hope so!
Why when I change my slider settings it reduces xp?
@@nolimitt7269 i don’t think it impacts player development in franchise I think it’s more for other modes
@@fiendfranchise Oh Ok Thanks
Draft stream or the stream after the draft where we see the ratings would be such good content
@@jermaineconley3469 both would be fun to do
Brian Do is a perfect example of what happens when you call a guy up at the right time and dont rush him🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@jermaineconley3469 the patience has payed off big time so far.
Brian Do seems like the kind of home grown talent that would become a huge fan favorite. Drafted by the team, called up to heroic action in the postseason, and starting off the season with a bang.
@@paulmd7747 definitely a fan favorite type of player
What are your plans with NCAA, 2k25, MLB the show 25 & Madden 25. I wish in games like Madden u can slow sim games that are User vs User. Having a leauge of 30 ppl that all rebuilding would be cool if you could watch them as CPU vs CPU
@@EunoiaRust 30 team leagues always sound fun but are hard to coordinate. CPU vs cpu would make that part easier if it was possible. I’m planning on playing all of those games, and I know for madden 25 we’re doing a draft only franchise. I’m narrowing in on my ncaa team but haven’t finalized my decision yet.
Shoulda just increased Dorsey's speed instead of decreasing his aggression on the bases. 12 speed for a guy his size is insane. Does he have a club foot or something? 🤣
@@chrisrhodes2 he doesn’t need to be any more OP than he already is
don't need speed when you HIT DINGERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Brian Do is taking over
@@Slizezoko great start to his career.
Oh my
Saw my first 80 overall prospect 2027 draft nationals got him #1 still learning the scouting as I didn't catch it, was never in a position to get him, missed out on a top closer on discovery but I took a starter late second thinking he'd make it to the 3rd and someone else found him😢😂😢😂
@@danielkirby6348 always hate it when the discovery guy gets poached.
Watching this team grow has been a blast so far, still catching up to real time, it's such a great series🎉🎉🎉
@@danielkirby6348 been a fun series to record, thanks for watching!
So glad I get these games for free . MLB is absolutely terrible 💯 pitching and hitting is bad , the scouting and draft classes are atrocious
I've had a lot of fun with the game personally
USC but not that USC, S. Carolina has been around forever, gonna have some cool school specific animations, Clemson is a big Rival, have a hometown kid young on roster for QB, not special so storyline there if you recuit special young QB, after Rattler was drafted its wide open, been below avg at best other than the Spurrier/Clowney/Lattimore days for years, if they have Beamer as Coach he's also SC native which is neat, if not he hasn't been there long enough to hurt with a created coach, toughest competition in gameplay has got to be in the SEC
good option for sure
Started a franchise with the Angels (yes because of the Disney movie when I was a kid)😂 know nothing about baseball and this franchise is my mlb the show24 for dummies🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉great content highly intelligent turned the angels into a top 3 farm system in 3 years with a generational hitting 1B 18 year old Terry Starks (auto-gen #23 and moonwalk when he takes a pitch 😂😂😂 did trade Mike trout and a prospect for Elly and Hunter tho so real baseball heads would hate that😮😮😮
@@danielkirby6348 don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone do the moonwalk when taking a pitch, that’s awesome haha
@@fiendfranchise 🤣🤣🤣I audibly laughed out loud 1st time
A story as old as time... Two brothers, the eldest, Jose Barretto, was born just 8 minutes before his twin, Robbie Barretto. That small, insignificant fact would play such on their lives, that if written about in ancient Greece, would have been a myth worthy of the direct observance by the Fates themselves. Jose would run the mile 8 seconds faster than Robbie in their middle school, setting a still standing record. Jose throws a fastball that is consistently 8 MPH faster than Robbie's, despite Robbie's improvements. And with them both pitching in the Major Leagues, Jose is the starting pitcher, ostensibly for 8 innings, whereas Robbie is a closing pitcher, left only the 1 inning. And this was their life, their Fate. The Eldest Son leading the charge, only for the younger brother to finish the battle. A tale as old as time... But not this time. The Barretto Bombers were separated by a cruel twist of fate; The MLB draft. With the collapse of the Colorado Rockies bullpen in the World Series, and with a similar trajectory for Colorado's young ace Jose, the Rockies were dazed and left in the darkness. 8 days. 8 days before the Rockies GM made the move to reunite the Barretto's, moving Heaven and Hell and undue the cruel fate, (a few insiders speculate that some league rules were....finessed) and the darkness might now be breaking for the dawn... Of the Colorado Rockies winning 10 straight World Series. Go Rockies!
Hoping to see the two dominate now that they are reunited!
Glad you stuck with the twin idea god bless you brother can’t wait till the next season Dorsey only getting better
Hope he can be a boost to our bullpen. Dorsey started on a super high note, but hoping for many mvp seasons to come
I’m here after I traded for a SP and a closer mid 20’s in the top 80’s from the Royals and the freaking CPU traded my starting pitcher to the Padres for bread crumbs in the offseason trying to fill my triple A and double A roster.
That’s rough. The cpu isn’t very good at trading
Could Benji Avalos push for that backup infielder spot this year?
If he has a good year in the minors. His hitting so far in his career has been terrible. But even if he doesn’t have a good year his defense could get him there.
Recently on franchise drafted a 21 year old 2B with beginning 90 rating and 94 potential. First and only time I’ve ever seen that. Was able to get him #6 overall. This came at the perfect time as I had a bunch of prospects who I had drafted and developed through the farm system of the Athletics to be ready to compete for a pennant. He slid right into the starting 2B role and an opening day starter.
Yeah that’s the one prospect archetype I haven’t been able to find myself, it’s pretty dang rare. Nice pick!
I love the offseason! Loved hearing your explanations for adding/keeping/dumping a player. I'm excited for Richie James. Offseason best season!
Hopefully my plan works out! I’m excited for Richie as well
I did a Rockies franchise and Elehuris Montero Hits well above what his stats would suggest. He's a great pinch hitter/platoon player. The only issue is he doesn't feel particularly well. I played him in left field and he did okay. Mostly he's a DH / first baseman. I like him a lot though
Yeah he will only get ABs at DH and 1B I’d imagine.
Ayeeeeew
I’m glad you broke the rules, love the twin brothas story line!
Worth it easily
Despite losing the WS, you have to be happy about how the team did this year. Clemente Herrera was a playoff beast! And Zac Veen wasn't far behind. The CPU does some weird things (caught stealing, sending runners to get thrown out, etc), but this team will continue to get better. I think losing Morillo made a big difference in the last 2 games. Regardless, this is a great franchise series.
Yeah beating the braves made this run an impressive one even without going all the way. This team should be back soon.
Do any of you CPU v. CPU players know of a way to have teams actually use pinch hitters? I almost never see pinch hitting, and I refuse to stop the game and manually go in just to pinch hit a batter.
I’ve seen a little bit of pinch hitting with these settings, but pretty dang rare. I don’t know a way to get it to be more frequent.
Chase a fruad 😂
Chase wasn’t the problem this game
you got absolutely screwed in this series. Hope you get back next season
Definitely had a lot of things go Yankees way. We should be back soon but you never know with baseball
