8-27 from: - link - RHP Taylor Jungmann Texas 6'6 200 - tall righty with above ave quality stuff. FB sits in the 88-92 zone but have seen him up to 96-97 before a few pitches when he rares back and fires his fb. FB down in zone with good sink and run in on RHH, must keep pitches down, fb flattens out up and out of zone. CB is true 11/6 down type with away break vs RHH and also solid straight change that has varying release points all pitches from upper 3/4 slot. Command is solid ave as is control. Has yet to fully fill out his frame which makes projecting this kid into a top flight starter in ML.
8-12-10 from: - link - IF - Redan HS, Stone Mountain, Ga. Williams is a tall, lean athlete with room to fill out. He has good first-step quickness at shortstop with sure hands and an above-average arm. He is aggressive at the plate and has good bat speed and should develop power as he matures. A competitor who likes to work, Williams' raw but physical tools are there for an impact bat at a premium position.
8-18-10 from: - link - Southpaw Jake Cave (Hampton, Va.), who started the game in center field, sealed the victory with a 1-2-3 ninth that included two strikeouts. Cave wasn't the hardest thrower of the day (his fastball sat at 86-90 mph), but he kept hitters off balance. Baseball America calls Cave "a legitimate two-way threat."
8-19-10 from: - http://www.perfectgame.org/Articles/View.aspx?article=4935 - Cave didn’t do much at the plate, but he impressed me immediately with his athletic build, bat speed and extension at the plate as a left-handed hitter. I also appreciated how he hustled his tail down the first-base line on a pair of routine groundouts in this game, and he also looked to be pretty fluid in centerfield. And then he came on to close out the game for the East in the ninth inning, and looked impressive doing so. There is some deception to his somewhat rushed delivery, in which he comes over the top to produce consistent low-90s heat. He really commanded the pitch well, and the ball seemed to explode out of his hand. He peppered the strike zone, striking out the first batter he faced on a fastball looking, and then got the second batter swinging when he pulled the string on a picture-perfect changeup.
8-19-10 from: - link - Lefties are always fun to watch, and Pfeifer looks as though he was born to pitch. He has somewhat of a pear-shape to his shorter frame, and has some herk and jerk to his delivery that makes the ball out of his hand that much more difficult to track. He sat, and sits, in the upper-80s to low-90s, mixing in a hard, slurvy curve. He threw two of these breaking balls back-to-back against Travis Harrison after he got into a 3-1 count to the mighty slugger. That’s a testament of his confidence with the pitch, doing so against one of the nation’s best right-handed hitters.
8-21-10 from: - link - Andrew Susac was a second or third round talent out of high school, in the deep 2009 high school catching crop. Susac struggled a bit as a true freshman, hitting .260/.387/.365 for Oregon State. But he did walk in 12.6% of his plate appearances -- very encouraging -- while striking out 19.3% of the time, which is not terrible for a freshman. Susac had a big summer for Falmouth, sporting a .290/.393/.500 line and was tied for third in home runs (5). Susac drew rave reviews as the best defensive catcher in the Cape and could find his way into the first round of the 2011 draft if the age-eligible sophomore carries over his offensive improvement.
