2012 OSFM: Baltimore Orioles

Re: 2012 OSFM: Baltimore Orioles

I would like to see Hobgood on the OSFM Roster. He is struggling right now but is still a decent enough prospect.

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus

I've included him. I made him a C potential, but was tempted to go with B. Most of the heat he's received was due to the high pick.

His two seamer is a real good pitch:

Make him a B. Once he gets his weight a little better from condition and tweak his mechanics some he will be a A potential starter. Plus he is still pretty young to boot aswell. The potential is there he just needs to work on his work ethnic which he will.

I wouldn't be surprise if Bundy makes it to the majors quicker then people think. I am not talking about this year or next but maybe a sept. call up next year or by the beginning of 2014. I have read that some scouts think he is better then Strausberg.

As has been said before... when in doubt, go with the lower rating.

Hobgood is nice, but his potential is very debateable and in the air right now.

He could become a really good player, or he could be a middling guy, or he could amount to very little.

As such, I think C is still perfectly reasonable. I also don't see how he can be anymore than a B at this moment, since B itself is pretty generous.

Re: 2012 OSFM: Baltimore Orioles

Hobgood dropped down to 248 lbs. from 260 lbs. and looks in better shape, but he was also just shut down a few days ago and likely needs shoulder surgery. He used to throw around 92-95 mph and now he throws mid 80's. This guy isn't going to amount to anything, I wouldn't even include him.

yeah I am starting to agree with you. I was hoping to see potential from him but its just seeming wasteful For your time. check the prospects for another pitcher or another position player. .

Can't wait to see the final results on your creation of Manny Machado

Re: 2012 OSFM: Baltimore Orioles

I'm keeping Hobgood in there with the C potential. The club have denied that they've decided on surgery - he's set to see a doctor about the shoulder soreness. Hopefully it's not as serious as all that.

I've been uploading some of the player faces in a photostream if anyone is interested in checking them out. Plenty more already made to be posted up.

Roster is coming together nicely at this stage. Even got Buck Britton in for hysteria.

lol thanks they all look good. The one side image of the player with all the pine tar on his helment was awesome. Hey buck might not be a prospect but he could end up being a C backup lol. be nice to see him get to play with his bro. Like the bundy bro's will be. Well if they dont trade bobby that is lol.

Re: 2012 OSFM: Baltimore Orioles

Britton's got a good approach at the plate, wouldn't be surprised if he got a call up. I made him a D potential

I like Bernadina, another bro of a current major leaguer. He's a bit undersized but he's got an advanced type swing, explains why he murders fastballs.

Re: 2012 OSFM: Baltimore Orioles

BTW, anyone have a good face pic of Roderick Bernadina? I can't find one.

Same one I've found, really hard to go on that. Right now his face is just pretty generic, hard to do the details without pictures. Same for Lino, hard to find a picture of him. Both are good upside players too, surprised there isn't more pics of either.
