So what is the point of requesting a scouting report?

e.g. when youmake a trade in the offseason, it's very wise to update ratings before pulling trigger. during that long-period off, players change more often, i believe. at the very least, if not elevated, the amount of time between reports is much longer, so still a good idea.

during the season, it probably doesn't help much. probably more important to use on the 'young' or 'old' etc.

the offseason is when someone

Inaugural Draft Results: Jeremy Pastva

Updated 01-16-2015 at 11:26 PM by absurddoctor

In the 18th round, we selected former left-handed closer Jeremy Pastva for the 322nd overall pick.



Jeremy was drafted with the intention of being slotted as our left-handed setup guy and backup closer. As it turns out, our pen is very left-heavy, so that doesn't really help him to stand out.

He was all star from 2015 - 2017, making 54 saves in 58 opportunities in 2017. He became a free agent at the end of 2017,...

Inaugural Draft Results: Aaron Jones

Aaron Jones, a 36 year old center fielder, was drafted by us in the 16th round, for the 286th overall pick.



Jones was still 35 when we drafted him, but is definitely our oldest every-day starter. He also leads the team in stolen bases so far, with 13 this season. While left field is his 'natural' position, he has still done an amazing job for us in center, sporting a .970 fielding percentage, and a ZR of +6.4. He even has...

Inaugural Draft Results: Josh Clark

Posted 01-16-2015 at 09:20 PM by absurddoctor

Round 15 saw us draft second baseman Josh Clark.



Clark is now our starting third baseman. He is a liability at the plate, being one of our two everyday starters with a negative WAR. He is one of the primary reasons that I have trouble waiting for Frank Gaskill to be ready.

That being said, Clark is an excellent defensive player, and may very well have made up for his poor bat with plays he has made. He has a...

Inaugural Draft Results: Shaun Love

Posted 01-16-2015 at 09:07 PM by absurddoctor

Pick number 13 brought us left-handed reliever Shaun Love.



Shaun was also drafted in the 13th round of his rookie draft.

He could probably have benefited from more time in the minors, but we decided we was good enough to cover some innings now and hoped that he would continue developing from the bullpen. In some ways, his numbers look worse the results he's given, as they are skewed by a couple of really terrible...
