              I've tried, but for whatever reason it didn't stick. When he was in CF, his hitting seemed to struggle, likely because he was so bad defensively. You'd think with that speed and range it would be a fairly quick conversion, but not so much.

                It's because he's not ready.

                          Not a sparkling debut sim, but I'm not gonna cry. Where the hell did these tears come from? Who put these on my face??

                            Bringing up two. I wanted to wait til next year but they are super pissed and need an attitude change. One on the mound one in the field.


                            SP - Tom 'Demo' Oshman
                            http://www.simgamingnetwork.com/blb/...ayer_6668.html

                            Rated as high at #7 prospect Demo's been slow cooking since '96. Not a power pitcher by any means Oshman relies on his ++ Change and Curveball. Eventually we see him as the #3 pitcher on this staff once everyone had been promoted.



                            3B Tom Arrington

                            http://www.simgamingnetwork.com/blb/...layer_683.html

                            Sure we can't afford to get him a real uniform, but that doesn't get in Tom's way. This lefty had a tremendous season in AAA. Suprising RBI guy who was third in the Horizon League with 87 RBI. Arrington seemed to get lost a little bit in the minors constantly convinced he should be in the show. ONce he stopped pouting and started producing he showed that he was right. Currently the #75 prospect in the top 100 we decided to reward his put up or shut play this year and he will finish the season at the hot corner.
