The Goblins & Gauntlets Monster Manual, MLB Expansion Pack: Pitchers, Vol. 1
Welcome to the Monster Manual MLB Expansion Pack! This book contains more than 100 new monsters from the Major League Baseball Multiverse. We're confident these new creations will make your campaigns more realistic and more exciting than ever.
Stephen Strasburg
Strasburgs are exceedingly rare creatures, materializing on this plane only once in a generation. They employ a devious combination of speed, power, and control to defeat anyone foolish enough to attack them. Once a Strasburg has the upper hand in battle, he will deploy his special attack Ghost Change, which is a magic missile that is virtually impossible to defend against.
Strasburgs are the earthly agents of two different and conflicting gods: the Aztec god Huitzilopochtli and Boras of Newport Beach. Angering either deity will result in a curse that will follow the character for 1d12 years.
Todd Coffey
Coffeys are deceptively fast for creatures of this size. They are also deceptively strong, especially if they believe there is cake in the vicinity. When encountering a Coffey, characters carrying babka, brioche, elven bread, gingerbread, hard-Tack, pretzel, strudel, or yak butter must make a saving throw against Extreme Appetite.
Coffeys feed not only on corporeal food, but also on fear. They are sometimes found in the vicinity of Mr. Reds (see "Mascots" Appendix in "Deities & Demigods MLB Expansion Pack"), consuming the fear generated in children by the giant, baseball-headed demon.
Mariano Rivera
While Rivera is a mortal being from another dimension, his powers make him indistinguishable from a god. Because of a gross miscarriage of justice on his home world, Panama IV, he has been banished to Earth and enslaved by the Yankees to save games for them for all eternity. The lifespan on his planet is incalculable by human standards, so he does not appear to age.
He maintains a Fortress of Solitude-style lair in New Rochelle under the remains of his former restaurant, where he sits, surrounded by treasure and countless awards, and dreams of returning to his home and the race of beings he once loved.
Jeff Karstens
River Wizards like Karstens can bend the water and its flora and fauna to their own evil will. Basically they're like trollish Aquamen. Karstens can, at will, attack with a DERP face that renders opponents overcome with laughter for two turns. When angry or confused, he can also unleash a Stone Gaze that will petrify anyone with a 30-foot radius.
Karstens' mortal enemy is Ryan Braun (see "Hitters" section of the Expansion Pack), who is still seeking revenge against Karstens for incidents lost in the mists of history. Any party accompanied by or aligned with Braun will send Karstens into a berserker rage once per encounter.
Aroldis Chapman
A rare creature from the plane of Andorra, Chapmans use their incredible power (18) to deploy blistering Cuban Missiles. However, they are not especially accurate, so players may avoid the Cuban Missile by walking if they make a +2 saving throw against Dexterity.
R.A. Dickey
Equally at home on city streets or in driving mountain snow, Dickeys are formidable foes. A rare combination of warrior and spellcaster, they wield a magic missile Knuckleball that is nearly impossible to defend against, as well as two vorpal blades, Orcrist and Hrunting.
The Dickey's Knuckleball is distinguished from that of other extraplanar aberrations, such as Tim Wakefield, by its speed. Dickeys are also quite thoughtful and well-read, and as such are open to parlay. Their beards offer them +8 defense against facial attacks.
Ronald Belisario
The Belisario is a large, shambling amphibian found in marshy areas. It deploys a Heavy Sinker missile attack (-2 Dexterity saving throw) and, when grappling, can attack opponents with a prehensile tongue. Belisarios can sometimes be outwitted by asking them to produce a valid visa or to take a drug test.
Jamie Moyer
When encountered in the wild, a Moyer initially appears as a wizened old man and uses his appearance to lull his victims into a false sense of security. In reality, Moyers are tireless hunters, constantly on the trail of virgin pitching prospects on which to feed. They are cunning creatures who use guile to track their prey, subdue them, and feast on their elbow ligaments.
In addition to the Withering Gaze attack (pictured), Moyers can teleport from one location to another. They may appear in three different cities, separated by thousands of miles, in the course of a single campaign. They cannot be killed. The only way to defeat a Moyer is to wait until he tires himself out and gets lifted for a pinch-hitter (National League universe rules only).
Bronson Arroyo
Arroyos are generally harmless creatures, but, when threatened, will seek to repel attackers with a Mournful Wail. The wail will continue until either he or his attackers are dead or have been repelled.
Some Arroyos have corn-rows that can grasp opponents during hand-to-hand combat (–20 penalty on grapple check), while others make car commercials so ridiculous that opponents are incapacitated for 1d4 turns.
Yu Darvish
The Darvish, not to be confused with the dervish, is the mystical offspring of beings from Persia and Nihon. Darvishes can be summoned to a given plane by an invocation to Nippon Ham and an offering of 50 million gold pieces. Their special attack is a Shuuto, which inflicts 1d6 extra damage on right-handed characters and 2d6 additional damage on characters of the Selleck class.
While the Darvish is a fierce opponent, he can be wild, and opponents are often well-served just waiting him out. As the official spokesmodel of DyDo's D-1 canned coffee, he is immune to sleep and paralysis effects.

Well done, but I think Chapman should be chaotic, not lawful. The tumbling, the speeding... Neither are indicative of a character with a high degree of respect for the rule of law.
Jun 27, 2012 05:28 AM
Agreed. Dickey too. The knuckleball is the very embodiment of chaotic.
Jun 27, 2012 06:30 AM
The tumbling...the speeding...the allegedly assisting the Cuban government in kidnapping and torture...the having your hotel room ransacked with an unknown woman tied up and crying for help...seriously, what is *up* with this dude? He might be Chaotic Evil; like, Azmodeus Chaotic Evil.
Jun 27, 2012 06:52 AM
This is why I tell people I was so nerdy as a child that I had *two* hobbies that used 20-sided dice.
Jun 27, 2012 06:48 AM
This is some accomplishment, Ian. Aroldis is the definition of chaotic neutral, though.
Jun 27, 2012 07:06 AM
This is the best thing since, well, the AD&D episode of Community. Well done!

Nice post. I used to work in the roleplaying game world... if I published a RPG-style tabletop baseball game (like a strat-o-matic meets D&D) does anyone think I could sell 500 copies? If I sold 500 I could break even.
Jun 27, 2012 08:09 AM
Isn't that why Kickstarter exists? Figure out the costs, divide by 500 and figure out a way to let us know. I for one would throw in.
Jun 27, 2012 14:16 PM
Are you talking hardcopy or PDF? With hardcopy, the greater difficulty is distribution and publicity, but put a reasonable price on it and post it at a few of the PDF RPG purveyors and 500 copies shouldn't be so hard. I have baseball RPG in PDF form at home (bought through DriveThroughRPG.com) -- look for it, but I suspect yours would be enough different...
Jun 27, 2012 15:05 PM
Inside the Park by OOTPdevelopments (same people who do OOTP) is a RPG style game where you start out as a rookie and develop your character, buy items like gloves and bats, exercise, etc.
Jun 27, 2012 17:48 PM
This is absolutely awesome. I figured Jamie Moyer would be an entry - there could be a whole undead supplement with guys like Moyer, Orosco and Franco!
Jun 27, 2012 09:00 AM
Does that make a good training staff a cabal of Evil Cerics?
Jun 27, 2012 10:13 AM
Oh, I just thought these were the newly designed Strat-O-Matic cards. :-)
Jun 27, 2012 09:57 AM
This article should have a warning label that says, "must save vs. insanity or suffer a fit of the giggles lasting approximately 2d6 rounds/minutes"
Jun 27, 2012 10:30 AM
The Vorpal Blade goes snicker-snack. And I always thought you were wasting your time with your weird pals and those odd dice with all the planes. You are standing across the two worlds like a colossus. Upon what meat does this our Ian-Caesar feed?
Jun 27, 2012 10:42 AM
Funny Stuff. Moyer's write up sounds like something King wrote in "Dark Tower".
Jun 27, 2012 11:54 AM
Wonderful job of combining two elements of geekdom. I am not alone in this world!
Jun 27, 2012 13:02 PM
amazing! I don't play video games or dungeons and dragons or whatever this concept is based on and I still love it!

Not sure where this should go...
Please; I want to add clothing not replace. I have for example downloaded the Bugstars Uniform from GTA V. I want to ADD not REPLACE. I thought by changing the letter at the end:
lowr_diff_003_a_uni.wtd - lowr_diff_003_b_uni.wtd - where there is no current, lowr_diff_003_b_uni.wtd file.
Will this crash my game?
Will this show up in my Simple Native Trainer?

Scott Flavin, resident conductor
With special guests Terence Blanchard, trumpet; Brice Winston, tenor saxophone; Fabian Almazan, piano; Joshua Crumbly, bass; Kendrick Scott, drums; and featuring Mancini Fellows Mark Small, alto saxophone; Kendall Moore, trombone.
For a concert exploring jazz music in film, there is no better curator than two-time Grammy winner Terence Blanchard-one of the most important musicians, composers and bandleaders of his generation. This evening highlights Blanchard and his quintet, and features the Henry Mancini Institute Orchestra in noir-nuanced renditions of various film selections from 1951 onward, including some of Blanchard's own. The incredible trumpeter seamlessly swings between the worlds of jazz and motion picture scoring. With more than 40 motion picture credits, he is best known for his work scoring films by director/provocateur Spike Lee. His most recent project was "Red Tails," released by Lucasfilm in 2012. Blanchard has also recorded the movie music of Duke Ellington, Quincy Jones, Bernard Herman, Jerry Goldsmith and Andre Previn. Blanchard's first big breaks came during the early 1980s via jazz icons Lionel Hampton and Art Blakey. He now performs with top players in jazz.

Temple joins growing list of schools making standardized tests optional for applicants
Nervous test-takers, fear not. Temple University announced Tuesday it will join the growing list of colleges ditching the SAT as an entrance requirement.
The university calls it the "Temple Option," describing it as "an admissions path for talented students who show great potential for success but don't perform well on standardized tests."
The university says the move is in line with its goal of placing more emphasis on noncognitive "grit factors."
"By giving students more choices, we open doors to more first-generation students and those from underserved communities whose enormous academic promise may be overlooked by conventional measures of achievement," said Temple President Neil Theobald in an official release.
With this move, Temple becomes the first national public research university in the Northeast to make test scores optional for admission.
"There are just lots of talented students out there who are being disadvantaged because of the sole reliance on SAT as the sometimes determining factor in their admission," said William Black, Temple's senior vice provost for enrollment management, in a telephone interview.
Considering other measures of a student
Black says this will help kids whose high school success isn't reflected in standardized scores.
As an example, Black referenced a recent Temple student who had attended a Philadelphia School District high school. She took all advanced placement courses, had 3.86 GPA, spoke five languages, and yet scored only an 820 on the SAT.
"Those are the kinds of students that we want to find," Black said. "We know that they can succeed at Temple."
Black said students who choose not to submit scores should have "at least in the neighborhood of a 3.5 GPA" and be "probably in the top 10 or 15 percent of their class."
"We're looking for those attributes that really point to success factors," he said. "We want to develop that potential."
If students choose not to submit test scores, they must answer four short self-reflective essay questions.
Prior to this initiative, Black said, students with SAT scores at the 900-1000 level or below "were in trouble."
This initiative makes official an ideology that Temple says it's been practicing informally for years for students whose standardized test scores dipped well below high school success rates.
"What we have found in our data is that if these students had a 3.5, or 3.6, etc., in high school, they're having that same GPA here at Temple," Black said.
Philly schools chief salutes decision
The option will be open to applicants nationally, but Temple expects the move will predominantly attract first-generation college students from under-resourced neighborhoods in Philadelphia.
Black said the change was part of a broader strategy "in using noncognitive factors, not just in qualifying students for admission, but to strengthen their educational experience here at Temple."
A portion of the $225,000 Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation "transition" grant that is facilitating this overall change will be used to provide guidance to students admitted without test scores.
Philadelphia School District Superintendent William Hite lauded the move.
"I'm elated and celebrating the fact that Temple is doing that," he said in a telephone interview. "I think it provides new opportunities for the children in this city who may have the skills and abilities, but may not have the access to the things like SAT prep and ACT prep."
Hite said the move aligns with his vision for the school district's future, which includes a greater emphasis on project-based learning, which he says, is "not captured as a part of a static assessment."
Trend gaining traction
Nationally, about 30 percent of undergraduate schools allow students to forgo standardized test requirements such as the SAT and ACT.
Bryn Mawr College announced last week that it would make the test optional; St. Joseph's University did so last year.
A study released this year by the National Association of College Admission Counseling found little difference in college GPAs and graduation rates between students who submitted SAT scores and those who didn't.
Temple received more than 27,000 applications last year and will enroll 4,500 freshmen this fall.
Black said he'd be very happy if 10 percent of applicants for fall 2015 utilize the Temple Option, but would be "happier if we get 20 percent."
Student-athletes, home-schooled students and international students who have studied in a U.S. high school for fewer than three years will be required to submit standardized test scores.
If this option had been in place this year, Black said, it would have qualified an additional 150 students.
Once students choose to submit or exclude their test scores, they will not be able to change their selection.

Fidelity International European chief executive Robert Higginbotham has warned that the FSA's "overly bureaucratic and intrusive" regulation is damaging UK competitiveness.
His comments were made as part of a new CBI report about investment in the UK which explored current barriers to investment.
Higginbotham says: "Business opportunities and jobs are moving abroad and the Government must look carefully at why this is the case. A key issue is the overly bureau- cratic and intrusive regulation by the FSA.
"This is not an invitation for weak regulation but for carefully considered and appropriate regulation."
Hargreaves Lansdown chief executive Ian Gorham says the regulator has had to be intrusive in the past couple of years. However, he says he has concerns about future regulatory proposals.
He says: "I do not agree with them announcing regulatory investigations before they are concluded. You should not be allowed to name and shame at that stage."
IMA chief executive Richard Saunders says there needs to be "a proportionate regulatory environment in the future backed up by a stable and predictable tax regime so that the industry and customers can thrive".
AIC communications dir-ector Annabel Brodie-Smith says: "One of the difficulties in creating a balanced regula-tory regime in the UK which protects consumers and promotes competitiveness is that we are part of a European regulatory system."

Death threats: 'I don't think any of them take it seriously'
BANDON, Ore. -- About a dozen parents attended the Bandon School Board meeting Monday night, hoping to get some answers about the handling of death threats made to students.
Police say a student at Ocean Crest Elementary gave death threats to multiple students for two months.
Authorities told KCBY News that a student had been passing death threats to other kids in notes from October to November of 2012.
According to police, they were not notified until a parent called a month after the alleged threats occurred.
The principal of the school, Elizabeth Olive, told KCBY News last week that the student was disciplined, and school staff and police will be talking to all the kids about how serious the issue was.
Two parents addressed the board members, asking why police and parents were not notified earlier.
The superintendent declined an on-camera interview, but a press release from the district says, "The school district appropriately handled student safety and discipline issues."
The release goes on to deny the threats lasting for two months, saying that they occurred over two days.
KCBY News has a call in to Bandon police to find out where the discrepancy lies between the time frame parents originally gave, and the district is denying.
Some parents at the meeting say they aren't satisfied. "I don't think they are taking this very seriously, I think this should have been the first topic of conversation in this meeting, not swimming pools, none of the other stuff," said Ocean Crest parent Kirk Frietag. "I don't think any of them take it seriously."
Frietag says he will continue to attend meetings, and he hopes more parents will too.
