Let's Play OOTP 25 as an Expansion Team #9: A cannonball into the free agent pool 

Keep up the great vids! Very entertaining

One other comment on the talent distribution, you counted 60+ Potential players. If you count 60+ Actual the count is a lot smaller. This is due to a lot of 60-80 Potential players never actually working out and settling below 60. The other thing is that over time you will have 60-80 Overall players (maybe once you have enough generated draft classes the number might go up), however an 80 Actual in OOTP25 will look different due to the massive compression of ratings. Harris, with 65 Contact, 60 Gap and Power, and outstanding defensive ratings is absolutely a tremendous OF. For example, look for OF with 70 range and 60 power and you will not find a lot. Lastly, OOTP removed HR rating from contact. In 24 the displayed contact rating was derived from Avoid K, HR, and the hidden BABIP rating. In 24, Contact is Avoid K and the now unhidden BABIP rating and HR is on its own. What this means is s non power hitter has to have a much higher Contact rating than a power hitter to hit the same batting average since all the HR's contribute positively towards batting average, but the Contact rating ignores HR rating. Contact is now essentially "expected batting average when a player swings the bat and it is not a HR".
