Valencia Stars: 17-19 (.472) DRAFT # 3

Going into the 2042 draft the Stars had the 22nd pick and when looking through the draft the Stars had there eye on one player that they though could drop that low. 21 year old starting pitcher John Olson was the target and there he was available for the Stars pick. There is a lot to like about Olson. Olson will be 22 when the 2043 starts and most likely see some time next season with the Stars on the big league roster...

Olson is a 21 year old from Florida, and can top out 93-95. His 3 pitch arsenal includes an elite slider and fastball and subpar changeup what he needs to work on. Olson a groundball pitcher keeps the ball in the zone and has good movement and great control on his pitches...

Olson has had a fantastic college career. In 2040 in his first season he went 6-0 with a miniature ERA of 0.60 in 10 starts. In 60 inning's he allowed on 27 hits 11 walks and 75 K's, with an 0.63 whip...Then in 2041 went 5-1 with another great season and a low ERA of 1.65. In 54 innings he allowed 17 walks and had 79 K's. Now in his final year he has again been hard to score against with a 2-1 record, 1.85 ERA, in 39 innings, 9 walks and 46 strikeouts. His Whip is 0.79.. Overall in college Olson is 13-2 and was hard to beat..
As you see why the Stars are happy to get him and really hope he gets the call next season to see how good he can be in the majors.

Solid pick.

You’d have been better off had he NOT had a CU and could have spent some PP on a SP conversion. But he is still a solid looking arm.
