I wouldn't do it but whats the setting to get ratings over the max? I've never seen that in my save.

Im finishing up the 2014 playoffs and I will post a new screen shot, but as a teaser you might be surprised by his development.

He quit baseball to play golf, didnt he...

asheft · 07-07-2014, 07:41 PM

At 16 he probably won't be making the big leagues for a long time...

Well I just finished my 2014 post-season so it's been 1.5 seasons since I paid $15M signing bonus for "Whizzer" and I must say.......it was a WASTE!!

1st Pic is what my all legendary scout saw of him at time of Signing:

2nd Pic is what my same scout sees in "Whizzer" 1.5 seasons later:

While I agree that if you had the money, this guy was worth the stretch, most IFA's seem to flame out for me. Don't lose hope yet though...I've had some go up and down during the career in the minors that still turned into all stars in the majors.

Pretty interesting that his personality changed. I think he still has a chance to be an all star.

Yeah he went from introverted to a natural leader... He isn't that bad, just not as good as before and not worth $12 million...

It was $15M + the penalties!! I think he can be a starter but probably not an All-Star unless my guy is just missing the boat on him.

OSA likes him better than my scout does, but at the same time he has gone from the #4 Spec in the league to start the 2013 season to NOT in the top 100 right now.
