2013 Draft-Notes - Derik Beauprez , Ian McCathy, Jake Kleindl, Trey Ball


Derik Beauprez RHP/1B Cherry Creek HS, Greenwood Village, Colo. - Ht.: 6-5. Wt.: 220. B/T: L/R - Beauprez is a tall, lean righthander with a live arm. His fastball sits in the low 90s with life and touches higher. He adds in a tight breaking ball and changeup to give him a solid three-pitch mix. He also plays first base and flashes good raw power from the left side. He is verbally committed to Miami. http://www.baseballamerica.com/today/high-school/events/under-armour-all-america-game/2012/2613895.html

RHP Ian McCarthy, USC -- McCarthy hopes to factor into the equation for the Trojans in his final season with the program. He made 10 appearances and had a 1.93 ERA in 42 innings. He also struck out 39 and walked 11, while teams hit him at a .216 clip. http://www.perfectgame.org/Articles/View.aspx?article=7522

The Prep Baseball Report Western PA Top Prospect Showcase on August 15 included five catchers who showcased their abilities for college coaches at Pullman Park in Butler, PA. The top two catchers in the group were Brian Bohman (McDowell), ranked No. 54 in the Class of 2013, and Jake Kleindl (Shady Side Academy), ranked No. 38 in the Class of 2014. Kleindl is a 6-foot-1, 185-pound catcher with projectable size and athleticism. He showcased a top pop time of 2.06 and a velocity of 77mph to second base. With his ability to affect the game offensively and the athleticism to move from behind the plate to a corner infield position, Kleindl projects as a multi-position player at the next level. https://www.prepbaseballreport.com/news/PA/A-Look-3142708659

3- Trey Ball HS OF/LHP New Castle HS (Indiana) How rare would it be for 2 Indiana kids to go this early in the MLB draft. Ball is a nice sized player at 6’6 whose future is undecided in terms of position. Scouts like his long body and left handed arm that displays a solid feel for his off speed stuff. He also is an excellent OF with a plus plus arm, good speed, and pop. http://pinetarpress.com/top-11-2013-draft-august-15th-2012/
