Took the only "good" potential, although his scouting was just as prohibitive as everybody else's.
Came, saw, sent him packing.

With help from @amalric7, I got a beast (or at least my best of the year, so far)!

From the look of info I've seen around here "never be a decent hitter" isn't what to go for, but "very good potential" is - it landed me this 14 pot player. Will train him for 2B.

Mesh, I think you're right; he has a good shot at being a playable second baseman. If forced, he could go to short. He has a couple things going for him. He's a lefty bat and his power could get him into the low 600s OPS. Also, in one quick minor league game he stole a base. If he is a theft threat, he may be able to steal a few runs each season, too.

For me this time around, it was basically the same as it has been most of the season--a prospect almost worthy of keeping, but not quite. He's a 13 potential pitcher, unfortunately it's clear that 104 or 105 is most likely his ceiling based on his full report. A guy who is likely to issue lots of free passes and give up homers isn't a good mix. It's rare that I immediately discard 13 pitchers, but that's the case this time.

Also, 8 of my 10 options had either "never be a decent hitter" or bad control. Only one, the guy I picked, was a good potential. Ugly bunch this round. Still, someone might pick him up. The other 9 were definitely garbage.

Posting a guy you picked up two weeks ago? Still a nice find in round 7, though would be incredible if he were found this week.

Ah, its catch-and-release the 10 POT time again. Fun.
