I think he is interesting. His negative hitting scouting is mitigated a bit by starting at 7 in the skill. Wouldn't surprise me if he made 10-11 despite the scouting.

If he can leverage his speed (some base stealing talent, strong PD) he could be an ok offensive player.

Drawback is that his defensive load out makes his an average-slightly below average defender at a non-premium position. You really would like glowing hitting scouting at non-premium positions.

He won't stick with the Dinos. Bit of a roster crunch this time of the season. But a thoughtful cut.

RHP POT 12 Strikeout Pitcher with two pitches: Fastball, Splitter
Super high Range and Arm

I feel like he should be a C&R but I haven't pulled the trigger on the cut yet. I keep thinking that, with only two pitches: an elite fastball and a split (which I think is one of the better pitches in the game), and no negative control comment, that he might turn into high heat power pitching righty specialist or setup man.

What do you guys think? Keep in mind I'm a LL6 team that is improving and threatening to promote.

Thanks

My 8th round pick was actually a guy I am at least keeping through the off-season, forcing me to cut my 6th round pick who was not as good.

Jim Perry is a decent outfielder, but I don't know if I should keep him since he is a POT 11. I'll probably see if Perry steals bases until I make a final decision.
