Power Pros Forum

This would be my first real player done for this forum, so I'll focus on trying to do it right before I go to anyone else.

First of all, what should his main position be? I was thinking CF or RF, whatever it is, he'll need the other 2 OF positions as second positions.

Second, team? I think we're doing these based on 2008 so I guess I'd put him on the Red Sox.

Other than that, here are the stats I have to go for right now:

Number 44
Born November 27th, 1979.
L/L

Top Speed 81/82
Ctrl: F, 100
Stam: E, 45

TRJ: 3
Con: F, 5
Pow: D, 110
Spd: D, 8
Arm Str: D, 8, I have no idea.
Fld: E, 7, don't really know about that.
E Res: C, 11

Abilities:
Maybe Timely Whiff
Maybe Cautious Steal

I'm not sure about either of these abilities, but I'm not sure I could get either of these abilities either.

This is definitely open to suggestions.

Well, I think I might have to give up on the pitch speed, I could have sworn it was possible to roll fielders with 69 mph top speed instead of 49, but looking back, there aren't any of those, and I don't know if I'll have the time to get waste 33 turns on pitch speed, and that's if I get a Gambler's Ring.

I think trajectory of 3

Maybe you could start him off as a pitcher then gamble for a second position in the outfield.

I got Nick Green to 87mph pitch speed - and I never use the gambling ring. So it's definitely possible. Just use those chocolates and boost away!

trj 3 definitely, given his homer rate.

CF should be his main position - according to baseball-reference, he's played there more than anywhere else. LF/RF should be secondary.

I already started him, I'm not sure if I made him CF or RF, but I can't start over now.

Edited the main post for trajectory, anybody know about Arm Strength?

I guess for pitcher stuff what I could do is get all the fielder things and if I can't reach what I'm aiming for I'll just try to get it as high as possible, control is really hard, it starts at around 30 and requires 4 mentality points per upgrade right from the start.

I gave him these stats but your opinion or that of others may differ to me;

Contact 5
Power 145
Run speed 8
Arm 7
Fielding 7
Trj 3
E-res 8

I gave him Timely whiff and bases clearer.

excellent - i will upload sometime this weekend and check him out.

This creates a roster crunch for the Red Sox - might have to remove guys that never saw MLB action, or aren't really relevant/might be overpowered, like Lars Anderson. Jeff Natale can definitely go.

Still need a Michael Bowden and Daniel Nava, too.

Complaints:

Power hitter was unavoidable.
Timely Whiff was unachievable.
