Worth a shot lol ... honestly I'm surprised nobody in a similar boat gave him a shot, with the whole league minimum thing. Obviously he's a potential clubhouse cancer, and any fanbase was going to wind up with a large segment turning on the franchise. I suspect the "clubhouse cancer" part played a bigger role in it for most.

The game has him as a two-star player with 53 stuff, 29 movement and 39 control according to "average accuracy" from BNN, with a 63 fastball, a 60 slider, an 80 curve and a 56 cutter (plus a mediocre changeup). But he has more stamina and better "hold" than any of our starters, so it seemed a fair risk. Worst case he flames out and doesn't stay beyond this season.
