Fourth Generation Jawa Player?

He's only 5 years old, but Brett Solo's son Theodore has made the OOTP news.

"Today was a big day for Theodore Solo, son of the Hawaii Hounddogs' Brett Solo.  It was his first day of kindergarten at the touted Hawaii private academy, Winthrop Acres.  Theodore passed multiple aptitude exams in order to be accepted into the school, which has only 400 children over all 13 grades."

"Today is such a special moment for Theo and I am just so proud" said Solo.  "When I became a parent I never imagined the love and joy that he could bring me and I'm just so delighted to see Theo go to a school that can cultivate his academic desires"  This experience, coupled with the Solo family's recent purchase of a luxury penthouse, show just how committed a shortstop the Hounddogs have in Brett Solo.


Get to know Roberto Ruiz

Roberto Ruiz is currently a 27 year old free agent who has not played any OOTP professional baseball. A star in Cuba, Ruiz tried to defect by stealing a spaceship belonging to the Castro brothers.  Unfortunately his escape didn't go as smoothly as planned, as he was intercepted by a First Order cruiser, taken prisoner, and transported to Starkiller base.

There he made his own escape, finding a stash of baseballs and using his 80 grade arm (clocked over 100 MPH on throws from the outfield) to take out the first order troopers.  Ruiz managed to escape from the detention level and hitch a ride on the Millenium Falcon just before the base was destroyed.  Chewbacca was kind enough to drop him off in the Domincan Republic, so he was able to establish residency and prepare to enter OOTP as a free agent.

In addition to the cannon arm, Ruiz is a physical specimen with well above average speed and tremendous power.  The only questions on him are whether he will make enough contact.  Ruiz is currently fielding offers, and it is believed that he can land a 3 year contract for about 21 million dollars.
