RDailey1948 Joined: 12/29/2016 Posts: 147 Inactive | Thanks for the links to individual skill range and scouting report verbage for hitting etc. I have been unable to find: 1) The estimated final SI range for the different overall Potentials for pitchers and hitters? 2) Also the Scouting terms like "Good overall potential", "above average potential", very good potential", etc? 3) Do the SI ranges for the terms in 2) vary between a 12, 13 or 14 Potential player? Thanks! I know these are out there as they are referred to by many but I haven't found them... Updated Thursday, February 16 2017 @ 8:55:23 am PST |

Since 13 potential starts at 104, 12 pot guys range from 96 to 103. Note some guys never reach their potential, and a few exceed by a point. There are some really good posts describing the anecdotal scouting comments. I expect someone will be along that has the link saved. |

RDailey1948 Joined: 12/29/2016 Posts: 147 Inactive | Thanks Seca. That helps. I'd guess my 2) question answer would be a guestimate that good = mid range, above avg = slightly above and very good in the upper portion of the particular Potential range. |

Good 11-14, narrow 12-13. very good has been 12-16, narrow 13-14. no potential comment has at times been 11, but usually falls to 8-10. 3) I view potential in a really oddball way probably, but i look at it as where the game has predetermined that player is going to finish. So if a guy "has some pop" on his fastball, and is at 10/9/8/9/10 10/10/10 on pitching ratings, he's likely to stop improving once he gets to 14/13/13/13/14 14/10/10 assuming that other comments allow for those increases to occur and all ratings increase at the same pace roughly (the same pace is EXTREMELY unlikely by the way, but for this example i made it easy and said they do). That would be a 101 potential pitcher at his maximum, and that 101 falls in the 12 potential range, so the player is listed as a 12. 3rd question i think there are probably 4-5 viewpoints on how it works, the first two are pretty standard. |

Squiddcatt Joined: 02/25/2016 Posts: 375 Inactive | FurkSK I once had a guy with 13 pot and 0 potential report how strange. Updated Thursday, February 16 2017 @ 12:39:08 pm PST |

BrianV Joined: 02/08/2016 Posts: 125 Inactive | I'll just re-post the below from Rock77. It's go-to info that I saved from another thread and refer back to regularly. I don't think there is one, but this is the info I have compiled: |

Tiger504 Joined: 06/17/2014 Posts: 1314 Kalamazoo Bloody Tigers III.4 | I've got a fully developed "great hitter" with 16 hitting. He's a 12 pot at 103 SI. Brett Ma if anyone wants to look at him. I've also got no rating fielder with a 13. Kyle Pitts. |
