One was a pitcher who only had "He can throw all day" and a hitter with no positive hitting report and only "above average power." So, the only good potential was a pitcher with a good report -- a report I tend to look for in a relief pitcher. "Fastball will have some pop," "Curveball will be exceptional," and "He may be limited to a few innings." So, a very strong looking relief pitcher right? Nope, 11 potential. However, since his stamina will be low and his range/arm are only 18 combined points, I may hold onto him for a little while because he does look to be a pretty good 11 potential pitcher, and I have had success with an 11 in the past as high as level IV. He would have to develop absolutely perfectly with points in all the right areas and low fielding for him to stick around long enough to get to the bigs, but I'll give him a shot. In hindsight, I should have taken the VG pitcher who "could throw all day." Hindsight is always 20/20. Updated Friday, March 3 2017 @ 7:33:58 pm PST

Bryan Tolbert, SS, 17: decent slugger, really quick. Also a good report: Jonathan Wood, P, 18: exceptional breaking ball, limited to a few innings. Decided to go with Kepano. He turned out to be a 14 pot, although he doesn't look like one currently. Not sure I made the correct choice here.

Will see how he develops http://brokenbat.org/player/149543 Updated Saturday, March 4 2017 @ 5:09:37 am PST

If the Very Good guy is a POT 14 then he was probably a better choice. Unfortunately you can't tell until you bring them to camp and let the coaches take a look at them. You may have made the best of two bad choices anyhow.
