Only one serious battle has taken place all year in the IFA market. Harry Tatis went for a whopping 29M dollars to the PHILADELPHIA CONTINENTALS. His start in Low A did not go well and he is now in Rookie ball where he is doing fine. Harry has some impressive ratings in stamina, control and splits. The only real question mark being his second pitch. Will the other factors weigh heavy enough to overcome that weakness?
Hector Ozuna went to Trenton Thunder for 14.7M and he looks to be a great contact hitter. He should be Ichiro in a few years as his OBP will be high and his best asset (Speed) setting the table to the Trenton team inther future.
Esteban Machado is the other player pulling in at least 10M or above this year at 13.7M. The Scranton Schrutes were drawn by his blend of speed and power. He is a little weak against right handers and he was moved directly to AAA so his adjustment will be fun to watch. So far the 22 Right Fielder looks to be performing well.
All in all this is a fairly weak IFA class. We'll see if anything decent comes along before the year ends......
