Sorry it took my a while. I wanted to be 100% accurate.

Edit RP Looper on San Diego's A team (Yes I went out of my way so you don't have to release, trade or sign Stauffer for your franchise)

Tim Stauffer
June 2 1982
SP
R/R
***
Rock

#68 (Padres Site Lists Him As 68, Yahoo Lists Him as 47, So does CBS...I don't know)
6'2 and 205 lbs
(All sorts of discrepencies as to his true height and weight I've seen all combinations of 6'1-6'2 and 205, 208, 215. I tried calling him to ask but he didn't get back to me :P)

Scouting Report I based my CAP upon:

Stauffer's fastball isn't spectacular in terms of velocity. He's usually at 89-91 mph, sometimes a notch higher. But his heater has good movement and he commands it well. The pitch looks faster than it is due to the contrast with his other offerings: a changeup, a standard curveball, a knucklecurve, and a cut fastball he will use in slider counts. Stauffer demonstrates excellent command of all his pitches. Scouts praise his instincts and work ethic. Stauffer is fully developed physically, and it seems unlikely that he'll pick up much additional velocity. If he maintains sharp command, his stuff is certainly good enough for him to succeed without a blazing fastball. He did show a tendency to elevate his pitches a bit too much after his promotion to Triple-A, leading to excess home runs. He kept the ball lower in the zone previously and needs to get back to that against advanced hitters. The Padres are high on his intelligence, work ethic, and mound presence. They are also impressed with his personal makeup and character, due to his honesty about the injury.
