## Scouting Reports

### Backyard Baseball 2001 and 2003

Derek McCattery

Derek does have any eye-popping skills, but he can still be a useful member of a ball club. Derek is a pretty decent pitcher, able to throw all four pitches and last a few innings with a stamina rating of 73/100. At the plate, he's a serviceable hitter, with nearly equal power (62) and contact (66) ratings. But his 79 speed is a positive trait for sure. In the field, he's not a great fielder, with a weak throwing arm and below average coordination, both rated 41.

## League History

### BBL

#### Season 3

Generics were made widely available in Season 3, and Derek was first drafted 69th overall in the 3rd round by coach Ellman of the Brewers. On offense, Derek's speed was put to use, as he stole 25 bases and scored 32 times. He brought up a minor controversy with his pitching, as he record 54 strikeouts while only throwing 124 pitches. It was revealed that coach Ellman would often bring in Derek just to pitch strike three and not pitch the entire at-bat. Voters for the Ace Wilson Award responded accordingly and did not give Derek's impressive relief pitching numbers much credit.

#### Season 4

Derek slipped a little bit in the draft the next season, and he was drafted 108th over in the 5th round by coach ArGarBarGar of the Athletics. At the plate, Derek had one of the worst seasons in the history of the league, batting just 0.189, scoring once and recording no RBIs. On the mound, he appeared to pitch most (if not all) of the A's innings, but the A's pitching stats were not faithfully kept.

#### Season 5

The next season, Derek was drafted 115th overall in the 6th round by coach T-Boz of the Devil Rays. Derek improved his batting slightly, batting 0.233 with 3 RBIs and 4 runs scored. He also was the Devil Rays' main pitcher, but split the workload with his teammates.

#### Season 6

In Season 6, Derek was taken a little earlier, 89th overall in the 4th round by coach JorgesBankAccount of the Astros. Derek's numbers massively rebounded after his previous two seasons, as he batted 0.679 with 3 homers, 27 RBIs, and 23 runs scored. He helped the Astros reach the Season 6 World Series.

#### Season 7

Derek returned to T-Boz and the Devil Rays in Season 7, drafted with the last pick of the 5th round, #120 overall. His second stint on the Devil Rays was much better than his first, as he batted 0.500 and also lowered his ERA to 0.76.

#### Season 8

In Season 8, Derek was drafted 103rd overall in the 5th round by coach jyknight of the Padres. His numbers were very similar to his previous season, although with a slightly inflated ERA.

#### Season 9

Derek was drafted by the Wombats and coach Marco with the 133rd pick in the 6th round. Derek had a slightly tough season at the plate, batting 0.459 with 7 runs and 7 RBIs. On the mound, he was a deadly member of the Wombats' pitching staff, and he led the league in ERA at 0.42 (among pitchers with enough innings pitched).

#### Season 10

##### 2001

In the 2001 league of Season 10, Derek was picked up with the 117th pick in the 6th round by coach jakerthesnak of the Bombers. Derek had a tough season, batting just 0.375 with one extra base hit and 4 RBIs, while only pitching sporadically in the Bombers' rotation.

##### 2003

In the 2003 league, Derek was taken 113th overall in the 6th round by coach arcothunder of the Royals. Derek performed slightly better in '03 than he did in '01, batting 0.432 and scoring 11 times while striking out 39 batters in 31 innings on the mound.
