6-10-13 - Karsten Whitson,
RHP, Florida - Whitson was a first round pick (9th overall, Padres) coming out
of high school and was seen as a likely first round selection before undergoing
a shoulder procedure and missing his junior year. Assuming that he does not come to terms with
the Nationals, they drafted him in the 37th round, Whitson will be one of the
wildcards for 2014. When right, he has
easy velocity, touching 95 with good movement, a plus slider, and a nice
change. LINK
6-13-13 - 8. Los Angeles Dodgers — Sean Newcomb, LHP, Hartford - The 6’-5”, 240 pound
southpaw was among the leaders in K/9 with a 11.5 mark this season thanks to a
fastball that can touch 95 mph. Over 13 starts, he had a 3.75 ERA, 1.25 WHIP
and 92 K/37 BB over 72 innings while holding hitters to a .213 batting average.
With increased improvement on his command, as well as secondary stuff, he
should be a big name to watch next year. lINK
from Don Olson 6/18/2013 - AJ Murray
has a compact athletic build with some muscular development, good
development through the wrists, should round out into a solid 225-230
athlete. His Footwork around 1st needs
work, looks a bit lost, but new to position that repetitions could smooth it
out. He did show the chops to play
behind the plate as prep player. AJ
should be the catch full time next spring and value could soar. At the plate, AJ shows a good quite setup,
but a bit heavy lift and load. He has
mainly a compact swing that routinely finds the inner half of the ball, but it
can get a tad long through the zone. He has the bat speed to keep the barrel on
a solid line drive path, so the drop is negligent at this stage. Shows gap power to all fields and with
project-ability and strength left it could be power to all fields. He really rides well with outside fastballs,
and shows the ability to stay back and drive sliders. LINK
6-27-14 - Player:
Luke Weaver Position: RHP
School: Florida State Date of Birth: 8/21/1993
Height/Weight: 6’2/170 Bats/Throws:
R/R 2014 Class: College Junior Previously Drafted: 2011, 19th rd, Blue Jays Scouting Report: He throws from a ¾ to low ¾ arm slot and
gives off a Bret Saberhagen type vibe.
The slot shows a bit of wrap, but decent three piece delivery. Fastball was 91-94 (95). Offering shows natural good hand side action
on the 2S, some even off the 4S grip. He
works it around and shows solid command of the offering, attacks the lower half
of the strike zone. Luke’s change up has
a solid amount of deception, shows depth and fades at times, looks to sit above
average. Slider has bite, can sweep at
times, nice horizontal action glove side when throwing away at the RHH, will
attack LHH inside with it. LINK
