After making only three appearances as a freshman, Scott was utilized often this season, making 23 appearances, including one start. He finished with a 2.89 ERA and 29:9 K:BB ratio in 43.2 innings. Despite having ideal size (6'4", 216 lbs) Scott doesn’t have premium stuff (mid-to-high 80s fastball), but he does have two average offerings in a changeup and a curveball.
Duane Underwood:
7-6-11: - http://mlbdraftguide.com/1/2011/07/06/duane-underwood-2012-draft-profile - Duane Underwood is a legitimate two way prospect from Georgia. Many believe that Underwood’s future will be on the diamond, but playing outfield is a legitimate option. Underwood uses a 3/4 release point. He has a low 90′s fastball that has reached up to 94. He also feautures a hard curve. At the plate, Underwood has good bat speed and some power potential. Underwood is a strong defender in the outfield. He has good range and a strong, accurate arm. Underwood is a strong athlete and has a 6.84 time in the 60.
Deven Marrero:
7-8-11: - http://diamondprospects.blogspot.com/ - The 2011 Pac-10 Defensive Player of the Year, Deven Marrero is a plus-plus defender at shortstop. He has great range and smooth actions while utilizing his plus throwing arm to make tough plays look easy. He has a solid approach at the plate and quick hands that allow him to make consistent hard contact. He has the potential to hit for above-average power for a shortstop and profiles as a prototypical No. 2 hitter. However Marrero has just average speed on the basepaths and could slow down even more if he continues to fill out. Marrero didn't regress as much as Kenny Diekroeger in his sophomore year but he could jump into consideration for the top pick with a better year in 2012.
Paul Blackburn:
7- 9-11 via twitter: - Against McCullers is RHP Paul Blackurn (2012, Heritage HS, Oakley, CA) sitting 90-92, curveball 76-78
Kevin Gausman:
7-9-11: - http://www.mlbbonusbaby.com/2011/6/29/2250656/early-look-at-2012 - Gausman is a little more mature than most of the players we’be both seen. He adjusted to college ball easily moving from the mile high air and was told to pitch inside more which helped him, plus the fact he already had a nice breaking ball and his trajectory of pitches being 6’5 plus helped him a lot. What hasn’t been seen at least for me this year was the 98 mph on his fb he showed me as a HS jr, senior to be. He’ll be a second yr college pitcher next spring and draft eligible by age, so he’ll be a front runner for early round draft talk for certain. Progression for me would be better control and better command of his pitches, also an increase in velo, none of the three were shown to me this year thus far, but anything could change by next spring, LOL. Could be a remake of Anthony Renaudo, who I think will be a pretty good pitcher, starter? closer? More like a middle guy or 4th or 5th man in a rotation, which isn’t bad, but I don’t see dominance like an Alex Meyer showed this year after two rough springs at UK. We’ll see though. Lots of summer left! LOL -
