I dont get it,,,,,,,,,,,where's he gonna play?

There isnt a spot in the lineup hitting less than .267, except catcher.

CAN HE CATCH!?????? That would impress me.

He will pinch run and play some late inning defense. Get a start on Sunday and Thursday games usually when Wash rests his starters. So your probably gonna wanna sell once he spikes and then drops (see Olt) just keep me in mind when it happens and you wanna sell me some color refeactors.

Hopefully Wash will play him. His comments to the media seem to indicate he'd rather the kid spend some more time in the minors first. Not that we really need him, it's just fun to have one additional thing to be excited about.

Just curious, but why list now? Wouldn't it be better to wait until he actually gets a chance to start full time, possibly next season?
I understand the momentary call-up spike, but Profar will just have a few at bats here and there.
Or why not wait to see if he starts in the playoffs or World Series because a starter gets injured?
I'm not criticizing, I'm just trying to understand why this would be the best time to sell.

Profar 's defense was natural ability AND the infield fit together which made all of them better .

I broke even a LONG time ago on Valiant. Since Bowman>Leaf I figure any sale is fine by me......now just give a little more interest imho.

FIRST AT BAT HOME RUN

 

[jaydub]

Profar has a hell of a debut as he just crushed one to right field for his first hit and first home run of his major league career!

 

[AmishDave]

What a blast !

I'm at the game it was a blast! Kid is amazing! It was a perfect homerun pitch though. McAllister threw all fastballs to him for some reason.

 

[scottagibson]

That was a bomb!

Thread title edited. :mrgreen:

List 'em if you got 'em. Like, yesterday.

 

[jaydub]

The home run sure boosted my listings - I've had a number of offers on a couple Leaf autos since I listed a couple days ago but post home run I had two users hit my BINs and pay immediately so Profar's debut has certainly paid off for me.

"Jurickson Profar just completely dicked all over that ball!"
