OOTP 15 Draft Pool
Posted: Thu Jan 16, 2014 9:24 pm
It's something that I've thought about since last spring as a sophomore, but as the release of OOTP 15 approaches, there is a chance that my teammate, Brian Brown, will be included in the draft pool for the game. He's now in his senior year and I've played with him the last three years. This to me, just seems really cool.
Here is my scouting report on Brian;

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hitter Type;
POW [ ]
LINEDRIVE [ ]
SLAP [X]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Delivery;
Overhand [ ]
High 3/4 [ ]
Low 3/4 [X]
Sidearm [ ]
Submarine [ ]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Year Eligible: 2014
Graduation Date: June, 2014
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Physical Description:
Lanky, Good Pitcher body, projects to fill out and development nicely
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Strengths:
Brian knows how to pitch, can put the ball wherever he wants and has a confidence on the mound, puts a fear into hitters when he takes the mound. Change up is a plus-plus pitch and can even the best hitters out. Pick off move is the best I've EVER seen, very deceptive to both the hitter and baserunner. Extremely advanced for his age.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Weaknesses:
None that will hurt him from developing into his potential.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Overall Summation:
Brian shows a true desire to pitch and win, he has all the tools of a future stud. On and off the field, his work ethic and leadership are outstanding. His 'pitchability' is insane, just knows how to pitch. Real prospect here.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Signability:
Going to NC State on Scholarship, should sign if drafted though.
-Should go somewhere in rounds 5 to 7, but may fall do to lack of interest from other teams. Red Sox, Tigers, and Blue Jays with most interest so far.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Start at which level: Full Season A Ball
Prospect Category:
Excellent [ ] 70-80
Very Good [ ] 61-65
Above Average [X] 61-65
Average [ ] 55-60
Below Average [ ] 49-54
Well Blw Average [ ] 44-48
No Potential [ ] 20-39
