While you're at it, Error Prone for Plouffe, too?

Also, I question the choice of Intimidator for Mauer.

Yeah, Mauer is no longer the hitter he used to be. But if there's anyone on the Twins who gets indimitador, it's probably Mauer

I don't think Mauer should have that ability for anytime in his career. Yeah he used to be a great hitter, but not to the point where there's a brown stain on the pitcher's pants because Mauer stepped into the batter's box

I've heard a lot from pitchers who faced him that his hitting abilities mixed with his 6'6 frame was quite intimidating. I think I'll keep it for now.

Definitely going to add error prone to Plouffe though.

Ok, wanna talk about Travis Snider, traded to the O's recently.

After reading ED44's report I have: 2/6/125?/8/8/7/8, Clutch 2, Slugger, vsL2, Whiff, and Spray Hitter. ED44 had those + GdPinchHtr and I read he is a smart baserunner but I don't know if BRun4 quite applies.

Travis Snider:
RF/LF

Trajectory 2
Contact 7
Power 125
Speed 7
Arm Strength 8
Fielding 7
Error Resistance 10

Timely Whiff
Spray Hitter

He killed lefties in 2014 and 2012. Couldn't hit them in 2013. I say no Vs Lefty 4 because his career average is .249
I think leaving Clutch at 3 is fine.

Not very certain about the other abilities those. Add some of them if you want. I wouldn't go crazy with them though

I like what you have here, and agree with most of it, but if I may put in my two cents, here's what I think could be improved:

Romine: TRJ of 1, or keep the 2 and make his power ~5-10 points lower. He only just got his first career HR this season, and even then it clanked off the bottom of the foul pole. FLD and ARM could be upped by 1 or 2 each; he's an OK defender out there, plus he can gun down his fair share of runners.

Simon: Looks good over here.

Wilson: Haven't seen him in action yet; looks good, I guess.

Hardy: Had an actual consistent year out of Detroit's pen this year, but I think the BB's may be a bit OP for his first year in the bigs. Don't think he's gonna do THAT again. Again, just my opinion.

Take these with as many grains of salt as needed.
