6-21-11 - http://bullpenbanter.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=398:college-baseball-weekend-05-observations&catid=18:articles&Itemid=11 – Tall and skinny; projectable  3/4 arm slot, uses lower half well  Hooks wrist on the back end  Fastball with seemingly very good velocity with some arm side run and sink; straightened out up in the zone  Big, sharp breaking 12-6 curve ball  Control was lacking, especially of the fastball

5-30-11: - http://bullpenbanter.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=428:college-baseball-weekend-15-observations&catid=18:articles&Itemid=11 - College: University of Arkansas  Position: Starting Pitcher  Bats/Throws: R/R   Height/Weight: 6'4" / 180 lbs.  Tall and lanky with thin thighs and plenty of room to fill out his frame   Simple repeatable delivery with a high 3/4 arm slot and a fast arm; incorporates lower half well and falls off slightly to first base   Big fastball with late sink, especially when thrown low in the zone; held velocity deep into the game; sat 93-95 for most of the outing, touching 96 & 97 (via TV radar gun)   Fastball was a tick slower out of the stretch, generally 90-93; showed ability to reach back and touch the mid 90s when he needed it; could blow pitch by hitters   Fastball did straighten out a bit at higher velocities deep into the game; showed good run when in the lower 90s   Slider has sharp 12-7 downward movement with good depth, 80-84 MPH (via TV radar gun)   Slider has good late break and two-plane break at times; hitters did a pretty good job laying off pitch out of zone   Hard curve ball with late 12-6 break; 76-79 MPH (via TV radar gun)   Curve ball didn't look like a distinct enough outing from his slider; threw a few early in the outing, then went almost exclusively to his slider   Straight change up with a touch of drop; threw only a handful at 80-81 MPH (via TV radar gun)  Showed very good control throughout the outing and solid command, especially of his fastball   Had more difficultly throwing slider for a consistent strike   Fastball had a tendency to sail a bit up in the zone, but the pitch was big enough where hitters couldn't catch up to it   Relied heavily on his fastball when he got into jams and overpowered hitters with it   Slider movement and fastball command started to slip in his 8th inning of work  Mediocre pick off move that is slow and long

7-5-11: - http://diamondscapescouting.com/articles_2011_summercircuit_prospectclassic_07042011.html - Ryne Stanek will be a draft-eligible sophomore in 2012, making this summer an important one as evaluators will only have his time with Team USA, fall workouts and his freshman year to draw upon when formulating spring follow lists.  His outing against the 18U National Team showcased good raw stuff, if inconsistent in its placement. Stanek boasts a low-90s fastball with boring action and a change-up out of the same slot with arm speed deception and a 10-12 mph delta in velo. The result was a lot of empty hacks from the 18U players. Stanek mixed-in an 80-81 mph slider that showed some bite, but also manifested as a spinner in the 77-78 mph range from time to time. Stanek throws from a low three-quarters slot, adding to the life on his fastball and creating a tough angle, but taking away some from his slider as the pitch often sat on one plane. He's a live arm with projection and three pitches, though his command and low slot could point to a relief role down the line, where he could potentially hold down a late inning job.

7-19-11: - http://www.mlbbonusbaby.com/2011/6/29/2250656/early-look-at-2012#comments  Ryne Stanek, Arkansas, 6’4 190, draft eligible like Gausmann, Stanek was an early rounder in 2010 by the Mariners, he has a 94 mph fb with late tailing action up vs RHH, also hard breaking ball that lacks only command/consistency. Potential to be top 25 guy in first round. Team USA performer this summer.
