Arm is more of a nice to have in the OF. The way I look at it is -

CF: Best Range, Arm is a plus, decent fielding doesn't hurt

RF: Best Arm of the remaining OFs, range is a plus

LF: What ever is left, range is a plus

I usually pick my OFs based more on their batting skill. Mason's arm is a bit weak for a CF, but his range should make up for it. Or he could be a LF with great range.

My best report by far was Herschel Solomon, a 13 pot P with a lowly 30 SI, which might not be all that bad for a 17-yo High School player. He's actually my #5 prospect.

Domingo Valenzuela was my first draft of the season. Definitely satisfied with a 15 potential hitter

Its all a matter of compromise on these things. No one can put out a perfect lineup. He lacks the arm for CF (or 3B or SS) but his range is more than necessary for LF (or 1B). Additionally, he doesn't have any defense scouting so he isn't ideal for the infield. To me he is defensively a LF, a weak armed CF or a passable 1B with too much range and not enough fielding. There are no other positions I would consider. Only my opinion of course.

That still leaves the question of whether he will be adequate offensively to carry those positions.

Since he's already fully qualified at 2B, you have the luxury of seeing if his fielding comes up to acceptable limits for you without having to make that decision.

Raze, nice catch!!! I'm thinking 3B

Meant to post a few days ago, but land a nice 13 POT pitcher, http://brokenbat.org/player/129336.

Should develop into a nice bullpen piece/back end of the rotation guy.

Really happy with my first round for the first time since playing! Picked up a frontline starter, looking forward to bringing him up to the bigs one day.

Meant to put this draft pick a couple of days ago.

Went College. Alot of bland reports (5 above average potential picks, nothing hit positive on the position players, so drafted pitching ( everybody needs more P's)

Welcome to Euclid:
Morgan

Might see him in 5 years.
