## Scouting Reports

### Backyard Baseball 2001 and 2003

Pablo Sanchez

Pablo is widely regarded as one of the best players not just in the group of backyard kids, but in the entire game. He can hit for power and contact, smashing it over the highest fences or scorching it past any infielder. He has great speed, and can steal bases against most catchers. He is a solid fielder too, scooping up most ground balls and he has a pretty strong throwing arm to go with it.

Nuanced players of Backyard Baseball do have one knock on Pablo, though: he's short. His shortness means many of his teammates will overthrow him, and this is exacerbated by the fact that he has a high AI priority at first base. His short height may also hinder his ability to catch fly balls. When drafting a team, Pablo is only worth it if you can find a lock to get him out of first base and shortstop.

### Backyard Football 2002

Pablo Sanchez

Pablo is one of the most exciting offensive players available. He can outrun any opponent, with a perfect 10/10 speed. He can catch almost anything thrown his way, as long as there isn't a tall opponent in his way. And, he can play a good quarterback too. He's a dual threat QB with a strong arm and speedy legs. On defense, he's average, but at least his incredible speed allows him to play a good cornerback.

## League History

### BBL

#### Season 1

Pablo was the first ever BBL draft pick when he was taken first overall by coach crazyei8hts of the Devil Rays. He had a phenomenal season, and was the driving offensive force behind the American League champions. He was also voted MVP at the end of the season by the other coaches.
