USA Youth Pulls - Post & Boast!!

[Philly]

All YP will be 16 fro now on. Removes one part of the random factor. Not sure who this helps, apart from managers who invest in their youth academy.

And investing only helps those who don't get cheated by the always existing skills RNG.

Not too great, but better than my affiliate's pull

Not unhappy with that although I might struggle to give him game time this season. I think I'll make him into a batsman as he's only a medium.

I imagine he'd be worth more last season than he would this season with the 16-year-old change.

Been a while since I had a pull of this quality.

Is he good enough to be an allrounder?

Is he good enough to be an allrounder?

Hm. Tricky. I think I'd go AR while he's a youth, then focus on his bowling. Not sure I have any data to support this, but a tailender with capable/exceptional batting and finisher talent would be nice. His bowling will need lots of power, but the ME seems to like LF bowlers.

Specialist bowler only...

[spark]

Thanks for the advice, guys. I thought I was being optimistic with the allrounder route with the fielding he's got. Maybe I'll try and give him a bit of batting at some point but I suspect I won't bother.

[Philly]

A bit better than the wage might suggest. Great power will save training time in a few seasons.

I may have to consider selling some 16-year-olds at this rate especially as they've all got dreadful experience.

Mm.
