Trent Grisham's had a big ol' 'stache for a couple years, and Gleyber Torres has a beard now.

If you want, I did a Grisham with a stache recently.

Do we have a facegen of the negro league Sam Crawford? Both his crawfsa02 and crawfo002sam ID's come into the game as the MLB Sam Crawford.

Likely because there is an old Sam_Crawford.fg file that has not been cleaned out. I'll look to delete it.

Here's an NeL facegen based on when he was a bit older with the Monarchs, though I made him a bit slimmer in the jaw/neck so he could look younger even if not the more boyish self in that Seamhead pic you posted, perc.

Looks fantastic, Lans! Great work as always-

Hey Lans, any chance you could do Aidan Miller and Justin Crawford (Phillies prospects)? I appreciate it man.

Scouting grades: Hit: 55 | Power: 40 | Run: 75 | Arm: 55 | Field: 55 | Overall: 55

A product of Bishop Gorman high school in Las Vegas, Crawford ran and hit his way into the middle of the 2022 Draft’s first round and landed with the Phillies. Carl’s kid has lived up to billing, reaching Double-A in 2024 at age 20, hitting, getting on base and stealing bags at every stop. A two-time Futures Game performer, Crawford capped off his 2024 season by playing for Team USA in the Premier12 tournament.

In his two full years of pro ball, Crawford has made a ton of contact and gotten on base at a very high clip. That’s led to a career .316 average and .371 on-base percentage with a strikeout rate of 18.6 percent heading into the 2025 season. The left-handed hitter has started to answer questions about his ability to impact the baseball, registering more consistently high exit velocities, and while he still has a high groundball rate, that number has dropped from year to year. He may never have a ton of power, but as he keeps adding strength, he should be able to drive and lift the ball for extra bases more frequently. The work Crawford has done to strengthen his lower half has helped him not play as low to the ground, standing more upright in the box to help on that front as well.

More strength also helps Crawford to be more explosive in terms of his baserunning and in his first step covering ground in the outfield. He spent a lot of time working on his defense, and there’s still confidence he’ll be able to play center field for a long time as he attacks the upper levels of the Phillies system.

It might sound like a broken hamate is never good fortune, but the Phillies would be hard pressed to refute the claim. Miller looked like one of the best high school hitters in the 2023 Draft class after a tremendous summer showcase performance, but because he broke his left hamate, teams didn’t see him enough that spring, enabling him to land with the Phillies at No. 27 overall. He immediately returned their faith by hitting his way from Single-A to Double-A by the end of his first full season, with a stop at the Futures Game along the way.

Miller entered pro ball with a reputation for having tremendous raw pop, even if some thought he might be a power-over-hit type. He’s proven to have a solid approach and limit strikeouts while drawing walks, as well as having acumen at making adjustments as he’s seen new levels of pitching, doing things like cutting down the hitch and hand pump in his swing mechanics that some evaluators worried about. He’s improved his swing decisions, with confidence he could be an above-average hitter who knows he can get to his power naturally.

While Miller played shortstop in high school, nearly everyone thought he’d have to move to third as he continued to physically mature. But he’s only played short thus far as a pro, and he’s driven to prove he can stay at the premium position. He’ll keep getting time there, though the Phillies will expose him to third and second base in 2025, not because they think he has to move immediately, but so there are options when that middle-of-the-order bat is ready for Philadelphia.

Really good stuff as always man, thank you!

Hey, folks...

Another player that looks like he could use an update is Happy Smith (smithha04 / smith-004hen, horrible version in pack as smith-001hap). Anyone care to take a shot at him so his face looks a bit less like a Hannibal Lecter prison mask?

I can get to this on Friday when I'm back from my day job business trip.

Cool, thanks -- no rush .
