Player Cards

When i print player cards they don't have the players number. That would be helpful!

thanks

The reason the player number does not show is that the player can actually be wearing a different player number in each game. A player can be on multiple teams with different jersey numbers, or sometimes teams will have "home jerseys" and "away jerseys" that have different numbers. From season to season, jersey numbers will change as well. The Player Card will show all of a player's stats regardless of team / season / home / away / etc.

If there is only one number for the player, could it print it out. Meaning default to printing number unless multiple?

Also, don't major leaguer's cards show their numbers through the years? If so, could it be the same as that?

Thanks.

No, MLB cards do not show the player numbers. Here is a URL that shows the backs of a few baseball cards:

Thanks for the cool link!

So, is that no to both or just that the real cards don't have it?

We will add the request to our enhancement list for future prioritization. The No was just saying that baseball cards do not have player numbers, and the reasoning is probably the same as the reason we did not include it (players can have differrent jersey numbers game to game, team to team, season to season, etc).

It would be helpful to be able to have the current number for that game on the card, as we use the print outs of the opposing team's cards in a binder to make defensive adjustments according to that player's spray chart.
In my league there are several teams without the players names on the jersey, but they always have a number. For now I have to write it in by hand, no big deal, but spoils the otherwise professional looking printouts.
