Pitcher Placement Help OS22

September 14, 2017 at 03:18PM View BBCode

Would appreciate suggestions on whether to keep this SP in the minors for another year or move him up to the Majors. Was and still am developing a lot of players in the minors so bumped him to the Majors last year after he started 1/9 conversions in minors. Once in majors he went 1/39. Birthday is Sept so assume he'll convert better in minors as 22. Would he be better in minors or majors?

Thanks in advance for the help.

First of all, he is OS 23, so there's that. The improvement rate for pitchers is generally better in the minors up to OS 25, particularly when you consider that you can get 60+ IC's down in the minors vs. about 50 tops in the majors and that a higher percentage of major league chances are diverted to endurance. If you want higher endurance, bring him up younger, if you need the cp's, bring him up younger, if you want to simply maximize his velocity/control improves, leave him down.

At OS23, and having a lot of guys to develop, I'd play him for about half a season in the majors. You'll get 25 ICs that will all go to velocity or control.

Those B+/B+ guys do about what you got from him. If he has development left you should try to get something to mid A- at least.
