Again, Ms looksee, not much different, agree with the changes that were made, but I'm still going to lobby for the changes that haven't been made.
I grouped them into minor requests and major though
minor:
Atchison - needs a higher stuff rating. Look at his MLB numbers. 36Hs, 45Ks, 15BBs in 37.3IP. His projections don't seem to match his actual profile. His talent should be to run about a K/IP.
Bloomquist - His power should be lower. He's never come close to a .350 SLG, it should be around .325/.330
Carvajal - control rating should be lower, he's been wild in the low minors, should be at 4-5 BB/9
Mateo - control rating should be lower
Major:
Beltre - his power potential should be quite higher. He, after all, has shown the ability to hit for monster power before. Should have potential to hit 35-40 HRs.
Betancourt - contact talent and rating should be slightly higher. With his super low K rate, he has the potential for a .300 average. He's showing this year that he's pretty much already a .280+ hitter. Talent should be .300, Rating should be at .275-.280
Cabrera - higher discipline talent. He was running a huge isoD. Also, he's regarded as just a step below Betancourt defensively. His rankings there should be much higher.
Guardado - should probably have his ratings reduced, especially against RHB, his splits against RHB are terrible. They tee off on him.
Lopez - needs to have higher talents. His projections are pretty much pegging his season so far but the kid's like 22, he still has room to grow. There should be higher talent in all areas. Upside should probably be .300/.340/.500 with 25 HRs.
Lowe - endurance should be higher, he's been used as a starter before. Stuff potential should be higher. His K rates this year have been electric and he physically has the stuff to back that up, high 90s FB, plus slider, plus change. Also his ratings should probably be higher. He's gone from high A to Seattle in 4 months. Updated after another great outing in the big leagues. This is all holding true. Plus, his velocity is 95-97, not 90-92.
Meche - legitmately a different pitcher this year. His stuff potential needs to be a lot higher. He's always had great stuff, just been too big a headcase to use it. Much improved in that respect this season. His periphs should probably be 7+ K/9, 3.5 BB/9, 1-1.2 HR/9
Pineiro - movement and control should be lower. He's not running 2:1 K/BB ratios anytime soon. He's been crap ever since his arm injury in '04. His velocity is gone, he's not above 90 anymore. He's 88-90 and his Ks are a thing of the past. He routinely gets less than 10 swinging strikes per game, well below acceptable levels.
Putz - He added a splitter this year. His K rate is through the roof and it's no joke. If you're going to bump up Papelbon you should do the same for Putz. His stuff and control should each be upped a bit. Also, his endurance should be higher. K rate should be at least 9+/9.
Reed - much higher OF range, lower arm. Rated by Dewan as one of the top 3 CFers last year in terms of covering ground (with Rowand and A. Jones). His ratings (not his talent) should be lower. He's shown he isn't ready to produce at the major league level yet. Range should be low 80s. Arm high 50s.
Snelling - should have higher gap talent and his ratings should be nearly maxed to his talent level. He's produced when healthy. He could run a 800 OPS in the big leagues right now.
