OK, I went to about 5 different scouting reports and all them contradicted each other. These are the stats I think I'll give him:
TRJ: 2
CON: D+/C-
PWR: E+
RUN: D
ARM: C
FLD: E+
E RES: C-

PLEASE give me some input as I really have no idea what to do with this guy.

According to the Minor League Baseball Analyst 2010 (published by Ron Shandler's company, if you know who he is):
on a 1-5 scale:
PWR: 1
BAvg: 4
Spd: 4
Def: 4

"Dynamic SS prospects. Plus range, soft hands, and strong/accurate throwing arm. Makes consistent contact and should hit for contact and moderate power. Plus speed allowed him to swipe 28 bases in '09 and he held his own following a midseason promotion to AA. Cubs SS of the future."

I still wouldn't give him too much power, though, he's only hit 3 homers each of the past two seasons in the minors.

Oh, crap. I got a successful Dr. Goodjob operation, but it bumped my trajectory up to 3. Should I save or exit and reload?

Save and reload.

And what sucks is that was my first successful goodjob EVER :evil: :evil: :evil:
Anyway, I have 10 CON 82 PWR 9 RUN10 ARM 9 FLD 10 E RES All I need to do is boost power a little. I'm also debating whether or not to try and get timely whiff. I think Firstball Hitter (which I have) and Timely Whiff might recreate his impatience (kinda).

Do you realize you just mixed the two choices?

No. Not at all. That was what I was thinking when I made that post.

Password. Sorry the picture's so big. I had to save it in paint to get the file size low enough and it got blown up.

Nice job, thanks for making a real player. I added a link to the Wiki to this thread. Abilities are kinda high, considering he just debuted in 2010, but I'll use him anyway. Cubbies need all the help they can get. :)

That happened to me when I was making my version of Jeff Samardzija! It was so frustrating having to exit after getting a successful operation.
