Next up for me is Rangers young prospect infielder Jurickson Profar, who's had some experience in the majors already. Here's what ED44 had for him in 2013:
Quote:
Jurickson Profar , xxxx , 1 , 5 , 86 , 96 , 8 , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,
And robhallett:
Quote:
Trj 2
contact 7
power 120
run 10
arm 12
field 12
eres 8

Gd bunt
Gd IF HTR
Stealing 4
Barehand catch
Pivot man
Error prone
Star
Agg field
Agg run
Pt Hitter
So here's what I'm thinking:
TRJ: 2
CON: 6-7
PWR: 95-105
SPD: 9-10
ARM: 11-12
FLD: 10-12
E-Res: 6-8
Specials:
Gd Bunt
Gd InF hitter
Agg Run
Agg Fld
Error Prone
Stealing 4
Maybe Pivot Man and Barehand Catch

Anything else before I start?

My thoughts:
I'd give him 2B as is primary position and SS as his secondary position. And if points allow then I would give him 3B as his tertiary position

Trajectory 2
Contact 6 - Hit .234 in 2013, predicted to hit .244 in 2015, I'd keep it at 6 in my opinion
Power 95-107
Speed 10
Arm Strength 11
Fielding 11-12
Error Resistance 7-8

Good Infield Hitter
Aggressive Runner
Aggressive Fielder
Barehand Catch
Clutch 2 - I say yes, pretty low BA in career. He hits .237 with men in scoring position. MLB average BA (no W/RISP, just the regular BA) sits around .255 every year. Just trying to show that .237 is a below average BA.

No Stealing 4 - he's 2 for 6 on SB attempts
Avoid Vs Lefty 4 at all costs, .180 BA in career

I would say no Clutch 2, because his RISP batting average is pretty consistent with his regular batting average.

nonono he's way better at short and a natural SS anyways. agree with 3B as a third position if possible.

I have him as

2/7/116/9/10/12/10

VS Lefty 2
GD Pinch Hitter
Aggressive RUN
Aggressive FLD
GD IF Hitter?
GD Bunt?

I don't agree with Clutch Hit 2 or Stealing 4. No to Pivot Man. Yes to Barehand Catch - it's pretty much a must for all infielders

SS as a primary position is a MUST. He's only starting at second (when he's healthy) because of Andrus. I might give him Durability 2, as well.

Barehand catch as a must for ALL infielders? I'm a bit skeptical on that.

Fielding should be an 8 at most, he's been consistently below average throughout his MiLB and MLB career

yep

Not literally ALL, but a very high percentage should have it. It's just kinda one of those things that most skilled infielders are able to do.

I'm behind the durability 2, I mean we're talking about a guy that seriously injured himself rolling over in bed.

Durability 2 is a beeotch to get, and he only missed one season. So I'm not getting that. I'm in agreement with SS as his main, 2B his secondary. And if points allow, 3B as well. I'm in agreement with all of the blue abilities you guys had, but I feel he needs a red ability or else he'll come out better than he is. I agree with what jag said and might go with Clutch Hit 2, but Error Prone is a possibility as well. I'm leaning twords Clutch 2, and I'm going to start him soon. What do you guys think?

Finished. Came out pretty well. I got 3B at the end on a 47% chance gamble. Just had enough points at and to get power to an E, but I think 85 suits him well. Arm strength is 7 because I didn't feel that he deserved anything over an E, his arm is actually pretty weak. Also has Error Prone, Agg Run and Agg Fld. Enjoy!
