After BMW's tremendous release of his Topps set the other day, I was inspired to go back and work on the templates I came up with last month. After experimenting with the XML, I was able to come up with XML code that now truly does everything in game...no more changing files for each team!
Here's how they look now:
I almost have this set how I want them looking, keyword being almost.
If you take a look at the cards above, you might have noticed that pitchers strikeout totals have a .00 in the career total and hitters H in each season is actually their HR total while their career total is in fact correct.
Perhaps this is what was fixed with the 2.17 patch? I'm running on a Mac and am still on 2.15, if this is what was fixed in the update, great, if not, any ideas on what might be going on would be greatly appreciated. I hope to have the right solution for these small issues by the end of the weekend, then giving me time to start some other cards. I spent some time today going through a book on Baseball Cards of the past century and through some old cards. I guess past work experience with a card grading company paid off for this.
Thanks guys!

A quick addition to what was posted above, the reason career #'s do not match the stats that would appear to make sense for Latos/Strasburg is because I created these cards in the middle of the season, not at the start of the season.
