Yesterday's warning from Pat DiCaprio and the subsequent comments at Fantasy Pros 911 had me in a Matt Wieters state-of-mind. When I got him Ron Shandler's Baseball Forecaster had arrived.
Here is what the team at Baseball HQ had to say about Wieters:
"9-43-.288 in 354 AB at BAL. Wrestled with pitch selection, patience and GB% for most of the season, still has work to do vs LHP. H% shows promise as did Sept up-tick (10% bb%, 99 PX). We think he's close."
Certainly more positve than Pat DiCaprio. However, Mr. DiCaprio warned of over-drafting Wieters and used negative stats to buttress his case.
To me, Wieters isn't a Top 3 (Mauer, VMart and McCann), but he is as good a gamble to top the AVG catcher stats I showed yesterday. Where you take him is based on how your roster sets-up at the draft. 9th or 10th round seems more than fair.
