Posted October 14, 200717 yr Are there any free sites listing scouting reports of some minor league kids?
October 16, 200717 yr Using the Google news archives can provide some interesting insights, especially from smaller market local papers covering the team the guy you're researching played the night before.
October 17, 200717 yr Author no who you interested in? basically everyone... but just for fun, what can you tell me about Jose Tabata...

They were saying his Hand was the reason for his low power output... but he combined for 8 homers and a combined about .417 slugging in more than 450 ab's before the 07 season. Are they expecting lower power output at such an age,16,17 for god sake, im guessing hes supposed to grow into his power. What im getting at is they blame his hand for his low power, but it was virtually the same in 07 as it has ever been. Is it possible to make a presumoption on Tabatas power at such a young age and such a small sample size? What Ive heard about him almost makes him into a power hitting SS, i dont know if i can doubt that yet or not.
