If you choose both infield and outfield your fielding ratings will start at 75, not at 100. This is largely to prevent people from having a huge set of ratings for dumping (starting in the outfield gives you 3 extra ratings compared to not so the total points you get is more).
Groundout starts at a maximum of 64% unless you spend points on it. Likewise hit batsman starts at 6, wild pitches start at 5, and balks start at 3.
Personality Ratings are out of 200 so you have 20 points extra in leadership you can distribute to other ratings.
Everything else looks good. For your height and weight given the difference between your start and ideals just let me know what you want each season at the start of the year and I'll adjust it manually.
For nickname have you considered subtracting the Max? I think it sounds better to be Maximus 'Awesome' Lawsom, than Maximus 'Max Awesome' Lawsom. Up to you of course.
Storywise, I'd love to know why you ended up as Maximus instead of something like Maximillian. Perhaps your father is a Latin buff? Maybe your family traces its lineage to ancient Rome?
Lastly, are you hoping we play in Dunnellon, Florida or is Max Awesome going to deal with moving away from friends and family too?

Name: Maximus Lawsom
Nickname: Max Awesome
Country: USA
City: Dunnellon, Florida
Birthday: November 5th
Height: 5’9” (Ideal 6’2”)
Weight: 168 Lbs (Ideal 227)
Optional Short Bio: Maximus, or Max for short grew up all his life in a small central Florida city where he was extremely popular. He is a four sport star, playing PG for the basketball team, QB for the football team, golf, and of course SP/LF for his baseball team. He is a throwback pitcher whose arm never seems to tire.
His parents own over ten acres of farmland, so Max was almost always outside as a kid. The neighborhood was full of other kids his age that also loved sports. After school, they’d play every sport out there. During the summers, his grandfather would take him golfing three times a week while his parents worked. He developed great discipline and was a low handicap player by the time he started high school.
Although he pitches right handed, he bats left handed. His grandfather was a left handed golfer and taught him to hit from that side where he feels more comfortable.
