Danny Hultzen, Greg Peavey, Trevor Bauer, Kevin Jordan... and Topps

Danny Hultzen:

3-4 from Keith Law of espn.com: - •Danny Hultzen: Very athletic lefty. Throws upper 80s will touch low 90s occasionally. Real nice breaking ball and can hit his spots. He's a legit pitcher with a deceptive motion. His curve was also an above-average second pitch. He spins a tight breaking pitch, and also mixes in a changeup and a split finger pitch as well.

Greg Peavey:
 
3-3 from: http://baseballdraftreport.com/ : - Sunday Night Notes (2/28/10) - JR RHP Greg Peavey (Oregon State) went the distance in a complete game shutout of Tennessee. His final line: 9 IP 3 H 0 ER 1 BB 9 K
 
Trevor Bauer:
 
2-25 from: http://rivals.yahoo.com/ncaa/baseball : - Trevor Bauer UCLA - Bauer struck out 13 batters in eight innings of work against Bethune-Cookman.
