Pete Wheeler

==About==
Pete Wheeler isn't the sharpest tool in the shed, but he may be the fastest. He's very reminiscent of Forrest Gump.
Pete's near clones are Henri Deschenes and Julie Dunkel. They are noticeably better at batting and pitching than Pete.

Fielding	
Pete is tied for the fastest kid in the game, with a perfect 100/100 speed rating. They don't call him Wheelie for nothing! (Well, it sounds like his last name.) Unlike most speedsters, he's not a weak bat hitter. He's a fantastic line drive hitter and if he hits on in the gap, it's almost an automatic triple. He can also hit it out from time to time. 
In the field, he is a menacing outfielder because he can track down almost any fly ball. His height also allows him to catch many balls out of the reach of some other people. He has an average arm, but it is good enough to get it in from the outfield.
Pete is one of the worst pitchers in the game, and at the end of his wind-up, his back faces the batter.

Kicking 	
Pete is a legendary running back, able to outrun any defender on the outside sweep. He can easily average 100+ rushing yards per game in a season. He's not very useful at any other position, although his height helps out his defense. He could make a decent quarterback in an emergency, or if you want to try out a dual-threat QB. 
==League History==
===BBL===
====Season 1====
In the first BBL season, Pete was taken 6th overall by coach crazyei8hts of the Expos. He was the leadoff hitter for the team, leading the team in runs scored. He also led the league with 25 stolen bases. 
====Season 2====
Pete was taken with the 10th overall pick in the second round, by coach GreenDayEagles of the Rockies. He once again led his team in runs scored and stolen bases. 
====Season 3====
Pete came back into the first round, where he was picked 15th overall by GSchlim of the Marlins. He scored even more this season, crossing the plate an impressive 52 times. 
====Season 4====
Pete ended up in familiar hands, as coach GSchlim drafted him with pick #21 for his Pirates. Pete had an outstanding season at the plate, scoring 64 runs, stealing 21 bases, batting 0.838, and setting a league record with 15 triples. 
====Season 5 - Lulu====
Pete was taken with the 8th pick by coach MaxxWayne of the Padres. Keeping up with tradition, he led his team in batting average, runs scored, and stolen bases once again. 
====Season 6====
Coach gmchappe picked Pete late in the first round with pick #23 for the Red Sox. Again, he had the highest batting average, the most runs scored, and the most stolen bases for his squad. 
==== Season 7 ====
Pete was worth a first round pick once again in Season 7, this time selected by coach jyknight of the Rangers with the 6th overall pick. Pete was an indispensable part of the Rangers lineup, batting leadoff, and leading the team in runs, stolen bases, and runs created. 
==== Season 8 ====
Pete returned to the Rangers, this time under coach areyoutyler, who selected him with the 10th overall pick. Pete roamed center field and was a killer leadoff hitter, leading the entire league in batting average at 0.891. The Rangers finished 7-7 and missed the playoffs.
For his outstanding play in center field, Pete won the Goldie Glove award, given to the top defensive player each season.
==== Season 9 ====
In Season 9, Pete was drafted by coach Emery92 of the Cubs with the 10th overall pick, the same slot he was chosen in the previous season. Pete was a fantastic catalyst in the Cubs lineup, batting 0.743 and leading the league with 47 runs scored. 
==== Season 10 ====
===== 2001 =====
Season 10 was an adventurous one for Pete. In the 2001 league, he was drafted first overall by coach elchrisblanco of the Fishes. Chris had a bold drafting strategy, teaming Pete up with Star Moonbeam and Stuart Sullivan, giving the Fishes the first rBBL team ever with three 100/100 speed players. However, the success was minimal. Pete had perhaps his worst season in the rBBL, although still solid by normal measures. But he had career lows in batting average (0.586) and runs scored (25). 
===== 2003 =====
In the 2003 league, Pete was drafted 9th overall by coach personizzle of the Marlins. Patrolling the spacious left field of Cement Gardens, Pete was a menace in the field to opposing coaches. He was also terrifying at the plate, leading the Marlins with 14 steals and 27 runs scored. He was voted Goldie Glove of the Backyard League, and helped the Marlins reach the Season 10 2003 World Series.
