A side-arm knuckleballer? That would be interesting to watch.

Name: Jamie Barber
Nickname: Burke
Bats: R
Throws: R
Hometown: Argyle, NY
Position: P
Ethnicity: Caucasian
1 Elite Talent: Stuff
1 Good Talent: Movement
1 Weakness: Control
One Personality Trait: High Work Ethic

At 6'4" and 225 pounds, Barber is an imposing presence on the mound. You've got a good chance of being walked if you dare stay in the batter's box long enough when his A++ fastball is coming at you.

Heeee-Kaaaawwww. Heee-Kaaaaaawww.
Equally comfortable nabbing deep drives to the gaps as he is transporting cult leaders from this realm of reality to another, center-fielder Don Keagle enjoys warm baths, binaural beats, and the poetry of David Simpson. Beware his sharp talons and lavish mane.

Francis Pfeffer is the 8th of 12 children born to William and Mary Pfeffer on their family farm in Champaign, Illinois. Frank, as he preferred to be called, grew up playing baseball for the town team along with brothers Bill, George, and Joe. He also plays football, and at 6'1" and nearly 200 pounds, many scouts think that his talent at right tackle far surpasses his talent on the mound. Only time will tell whether "Big Jeff" will have success on the mound or the gridiron.
Big Jeff Pfeffer! The older brother of little Jeff Pfeffer, who was also bigger than big Jeff and also not named Jeff! No Jeff Pfeffers! I like your podcast choices Stephen.
thanks Ted! I think I laughed out loud for five straight minutes or so as Sam talked us through the Pfeffers. Hopefully Recte does custom ammys again in a couple seasons so that I can get younger brother Edward Joseph "Jeff" Pfeffer in the game.
I need to find the episode, but my favorite moment is back during the Jeff Sullivan era when Ben is reading the list of items the Hall of Fame is keeping from the 2018 season and Jeff gets slowly more and more incredulous at how underwhelming the items are, finally losing his mind when they get to Eduardo Nunez's bat. My face hurt from laughing.

A close second (probably because of being a cards fan) when a fan email asked something, maybe a Mike Trout hypothetical, that lead them to discovering that peak Albert Pujols offense was actually good enough for him to stand in center field, unable to move, and the defensive liability wasn't enough to make him sub replacement level.

Throws: R
Hometown: Kingsbury, NY
Position: CF
Ethnicity: Caucasian
1 Elite Talent: Contact
1 Good Talent: Eye
1 Weakness: Speed
One Personality Trait: Natural born Leader/Captain

Brodt is almost everything you want in a CF - great range, rarely makes errors, knows the game, commands the outfield, goes deep into counts and gets on base when you need him to. Okay, maybe he's not the speediest guys once he's on base, but as often as he is there, you can deal with his maybe-average speed.

Melucci is nick-named Sloth for a reason - if there was a negative for speed ratings, Melucci would have it. When Melucci is up, you can expect one of three outcomes - a HR, the RF gunning him out at 1B, or a strikeout.

1 Weakness: Range
One Personality Trait: Good work ethic
Short Bio: He has the speed and glove of a center fielder, but it doesn't translate to the range required of the position. Fortunately, his strong arm should make him a top rated right fielder. Great contact skills, projected to average 50 k's or less over the course of a typical season.

Considered an outcast by some of his team-mates for his exotic love for the felines, He opted for IGN Academy in Florida instead of HS. He's a relentless worker when the cameras are rolling, and has developed one might say an obsession to compete against rival IGN player Carol Baskins.

Carol has earned the nickname "Big Cat" by his fellow team-mates at IGN Academy. He's 6-8 250lbs (an presence on the mound), but fools you with his knuckle-ball. He often will great you with his catch phase... "Hello all you cool cats and kittens"

I thought for sure you’d go with Carl Baskin, but now the thought of a male pitcher named Carol makes me laugh.

Name: Stanley Kowalski
Nickname: Hey Stella
Bats: Right
Throws: Right
Hometown: New Orleans, Louisiana
Position: Pitcher
Ethnicity: Polish
1 Elite Talent: Fastball
1 Good Talent: Movement
1 Weakness: Control
One Personality Trait: Greed

Tempestuous, infantile, childish, needy...they all describe Stanley, but what also describes him is gifted and charismatic on the mound. When he is pitching, everyone stops to take notice. You never know if he will throw a no-hitter or walk - or even hit - five straight batters. He is capable of both. A word to the wise though, don't call him by his nickname. That was bestowed upon him in the Babe Ruth League by teammates from road trips where he'd scream "Hay Stella!!!" in his sleep. No one knows who that is or what that means because when it is brought up, he explodes. If he could ever harness that energy, he could be one of the great pitchers at the highest level. However, it is unknown if that is his future or a tantrum on the mound where he fights everyone is his future.
