6-14-10 from: - http://www.minorleagueball.com/2010/6/13/1516247/new-york-mets-draft-review - 9) Jacob deGrom, RHP, Stetson: 90-93 MPH fastball, workable slider, athletic enough that he played shortstop at times. This one looks like an interesting sleeper pick that needs to be tracked closely. Walked just 16 in 82 innings.
7-9-10: - make that three excellent outings in a row for Houck, who has easily become the ace of the Brooklyn staff. This time, the stats were: 6.2-IP, 1-ER, 8-K, 1-BB, 12-GB… yearly stats are: 3-0, 0.99, 1.06.
Houck was drafted in the 17th round of the 2008 draft by the Mets.
He pitched most of the 2008 season for GCL, going 2-2, 1.08, 0.84 in 6 appearances.He was called up to Savannah for the last week of their season, where he went 0-0, 2.25 in 2 appearances.Houck had TJS in the off-season and spent the enite 2009 season on the DL. Frankly, I didn’t think he’d be back.
6-30-10: - Mitch Houck pitched his second gem in a row Sunday for the Cyclones, 7.0-IP, 2-ER, 8-K, 2-BB.
7-4-10: It’s becoming quite evident that the first starting pitcher that will graduate from Brooklyn this year will be Mitch Houck. He pitched another good one Friday night… 7.0-IP, 0-ER, 4-K… and his yearly stats are: 4-G, 2-0, 0.87, 1.11, 20-2-IP, 18-K, 8-BB, .273 BABIP, 3.00 FIP. Remember… he turned 23 this past May so don’t be surprised he isn’t fast tracked.
7-9-10: - Cecilliani continued to rake, going 3-4 last night against State College. He also stole three bases and raised his hitting stats for the season to: .392/.442/.608/1.050.
Cecilliani was drafted in the fourth round of the 2009 draft by the Mets.
6-10-2009 from: - http://www.tri-cityherald.com/2009/06/10/608528/mid-columbia-talent-ready-for.html - Darrell Ceciliani has waited his whole life to be a professional baseball player. "Ever since I could hold a bat," said Ceciliani, a 6-foot-1 right-fielder for Columbia Basin College. He put himself on the radar of many a major league scout with a solid season at the plate while leading CBC into the NWAACC championship game. The left-hander hit .364 and led the Hawks with six triples, four home runs and 40 RBIs as the team's No. 3 hitter. Ceciliani is expected to be chosen somewhere between rounds 4-6 of Major League Baseball's First-Year Player Draft, which began Tuesday with the first three rounds and concludes today with rounds 4-50 in Secaucus, N.J.
http://www.thenewstribune.com/ : - Darrell Ceciliani, a freshman out of Columbia Basin College, hopes to begin a professional career with the New York Mets after being selected in the fourth round, 134th overall. The 6-1 right fielder out of Madras, Ore., hit .364 and led the Hawks with six triples, four homers and 40 RBIs as the team's No. 3 hitter. But unlike Conley, Ceciliani missed his own selection while sitting in his business salesmanship class at CBC. Once he found out about his selection, however, "I ended up just leaving," he laughed. "I'm definitely leaning toward going pro right now. We're still kind of negotiating contracts and money right now. "I probably won't go for anything less than $250,000."
http://www.bendbulletin.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20090611/SPORTS05/906110387/1009/NEWS01&nav_category=NEWS01 - After not getting drafted out of high school, Ceciliani, a left-handed outfielder, turned heads immediately at Columbia Basin with his speed and athleticism. The former White Buffalo led CBC in runs scored, doubles, triples, home runs, runs batted in, walks and slugging percentage while helping the Hawks to a 44-7 record. “Being in the Pacific Northwest, you’re under the radar,” said Ceciliani’s father, who also is named Darrell Ceciliani. “Plus, he was in Central Oregon. … He was a three-sport athlete, so he didn’t go to a lot of camps and he had to work (on the family) ranch. But my deal always was, ‘If you’re good enough, you’ll get noticed. They’ll find you.’ ” With a hot start at CBC in the wood-bat Northwest Athletic Association of Community Colleges (NWAACC), Ceciliani’s name spread like wildfire among pro baseball scouts.
He immediately signed and played the entire season for Kingsport, going .234/.313/.310/.623 in 158 at bats. Only eight of his 37 hits went for extra bases.
6-30-10: - Cecilliani went 3-4 Monday night, which raised his 2010 Brooklyn batting average to .409. Yes, all three were singles, but he still has produced six extra base hits this season, only two less than he did all last season for Kingsport. Cecilliani was a questionable fourth round draft pick last season and most draft experts had him in the 8-15th round projected area. That being said, he’s off to a great start this season, and hopefully we’ll see his first professional home run soon.
