buffmckagan Joined: 12/22/2013 Posts: 650 Scranton Bears Legends | Depends on the makeup of your team and his development (what positions, potential, how much he has left to gain), but I would put him in at shortstop. Second if he struggled defensively | ||

Rock777 Joined: 09/21/2014 Posts: 9569 Haverhill Halflings III.1 | Only a few of those high hitting, high power guys end up being Mark McGwire types. Half of them end up hitting 5-6 HRs a year in the upper leagues. Never mind that this guy only has 15 power, which is not very high. Here is a guy with similar power and hitting (and 18 BC and 15 PD). Now imagine you take away half his BC and PD so he strikes out 10 times more than walking... If he didn't work out as a SS, I couldn't imagine keeping a guy like that on my roster. You can find better hitters for 2B. |

Yuri84 Joined: 10/14/2014 Posts: 639 Apple Valley Raccoons III.2 | In my team he would be a backup 2B/SS at best. Probably wouldn't even make the squad. 7-7 BC/PD combo looks quite...unattractive. | ||

I admit they are a bit better than 7-7 in BC and PD and have 19 power, but they've proven capable of hitting the ball out of the park on every league level. |
