Found April 03, 2007 on Cubs Hub:
Felix Pie (PEE-ay) HT: 6'2 WT: 180 lbs B/T: L/L DOB: 02/08/83 In this installment of CubsHub's Scouting Report, we'll be looking at the crown jewel of the organization, Felix Pie. The following is something I haven't tried yet, in that I've already done a prior report on Pie. Still he's the most hyped player we have in the minor leagues and depending on a few situations, he could see some time in 2007 & 2008. In fact, if it wasn't for an ankle injury, he would have marked some substancial playtime in 2005 and could have made the organization balk at trading for one-year rental Juan Pierre in 2006. In the next CubsHub Scouting Report, I'll be examining THE Rocky Cherry, whom Pierce interviewed recently. Felix is one of the very rare talents that draws the "Five Tool" label and deserves it. The 22 year old is above average in all five tool categories: contact, power, speed, defense, and arm. This past season for Iowa, he put up respectable numbers but nothing close to the dominating preformances he had at lower levels. The more experienced pitchers had Felix swinging and missing more than he ever has in his career, alot of that can be marked to seeing more and better offspeed pitches than he's seen in the past.

    I wouldn't be surprised if he's up by the All-Star break, starting in center and Soriano in one of the corners. By then Cliff Floyd should be hurt and Jaque Jones could be traded.
