I've been pretty happy with the switch to OOTP 2007. I'm sure I'll run into issues, but for now it seems pretty stable, and I love some of the additional options, one of which is FaceGen.

As for "Fat Tony" Jones, he's listed at 6 feet, 225 pounds. That didn't seem particularly large to me until I saw that David Wells weighs in at 225 pounds, but he's 6'4", so this kid must be pretty solid.

You'll be interested to know that OOTP 2007 treats Tony Jones a lot more kindly than 6.5 did. Jones is the #1 starter for the North Reach (AAA) Trappers and is 1-1, 2.81 with a 1.25 WHIP, rated a 3/7/5 (S/M/C) against 8/9/10 talents. He's finally coming along.

Allison's 1st round pick this past season, Tyran Rowe, is doing him one better, though: 0-1, 0.00 ERA and a 0.73 WHIP in 2 starts. Talk about your tough luck: Rowe's allowed 2 unearned runs in 15 IP and it's resulted in a loss and a no-decision. Thisi s in the B-level city league, the equivalent of AA.
