So apparently TJ Surgery doesn't come without baggage.

Former SP Ron Chamberlain had TJ last year, out for 13 months. He's come back healthy didn't lose any velocity or ratings but his stamina is now 35 and our scout gives him a reliever blurb instead of starter. Sucks that it happened but still a nice little wrinkle in the game.

Yeah. I've learned the hard way with TJ.

He might bounce back. After Ted Adamo recovered from missing 11 months with a torn rotator cuff, my scout briefly reported a stamina drop to 35.

But then in the next report it went back up to 50 or 55.

Interesting. I'll keep an eye out.

In-game I see a lot of guys that are only 16 or 17 in the draft pool.

On 2nd thought....

Is this a mistake? Looks like 2nd year HS players are eligible? BradZ Andrew

The settings are right in the game. Any examples?

I'm not surprised to see some weird ages because the HS league contains a number of newly generated players

3B Pat Nunes is 16
1B BJ Jamieson is 17

There's plenty others.

Do we normally have 17 year olds in the draft? It may be a timing thing. Normally the feeder players are generated at the end of the feeder season so they age a little before they start playing. Because we added new HS feeder teams during the off-season there is a new group of players generated ~6 months later than normal.

[Delandis]

We always have 16 and 17 year old HS in the draft, right? A few would be 16 until like May 30 or something like that.

Yes, looking at my draft spreadsheet from last year we had a handful of 16 year olds, mostly 17 year olds and no 18 year olds. I think there's just more 16 year olds than normal because of the timing issue i mentioned.

Can't wait for opening day!
