6-10-13 - Kyle Schwarber, C, Indiana - Kyle Scwarber is one of
the top power bats in the country. He
has plus power with lift in his swing and should be able to hit home runs
anywhere. He also shows a good approach
at the plate. Schwarber is likely headed
to first base, but his bat will play anywhere. http://bigleaguefutures.net/1/2013/06/10/2014-mlb-draft-early-college-names-to-know/
6-13-13 - 26. Boston Red Sox — Michael
Gettys, RHP, Gainesville HS (GA) - An athletic right-hander who has
touched 95 mph with his fastball, the 6’-2” Gettys is one of the more exciting
players to watch in the 2014 prep class. As a junior, he hit .406 and stole 38
bases over 32 games. On the mound, he had a 0.99 ERA, 0.74 WHIP and 114 K/18 BB
over 73 innings. He tossed two no-hitters and struck out 2013 fifth-overall
pick Clint Frazier twice in their match-up on April 12. In an interview I did
with Frazier, he said Gettys was the best pitcher he faced all season. http://beforeitsnews.com/sports/2013/06/2014-mlb-mock-draft-1-0-no-time-like-the-present-2513748.html?currentSplittedPage=2
6-17-13 - 3. Alex Jackson,
C, Rancho Bernardo High in Poway, Calif. - Jackson (6-foot-2, 200) is a
well-rounded backstop. "Catching prospects," Perkin noted,
"normally appear in one of two forms: Throwers who can't hit or hitters
who can't throw. Jackson is the rare backstop who does both at the highest
level." Perkin also pointed out Jackson's tremendous power and his ability
to get the ball to second base in 1.8 seconds, which is above major league
average. http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/mlb/news/20130610/draft-prospects-carlos-rodon/#ixzz2WWk0FqzU
6-18-13 - Carlos Rodon - from
Don Olson on 6/18/2013 - Stout wide frame, impressive present strength and
build, think maturation and power potential TORL. FB was 90-94 mph (95),
cruising speed is never an issue. 4S was
solid 92-95 mph, nice backspin with arm slot tails away from RHH. Works both sides of the plate, attacks the
inside, and changes eye levels constantly with the offering, all natural late
subtle movement. Command is average,
think it can improve with his ability, losses it a little too much low, point
of improvement. He hides the ball well and can get hitters to stretch the zone. 2S 90-91 mph (92) with a good amount of hand
side tail that is hard, showed good command, hits it consistently L/O. Cutter/Baby Slider was tight with good bite,
more horizontal than vertical tilt at 89-91, safe plus grade with room to grow,
effective action to both sides hitters, shows action that forces swings. Curve
has good shape, a lot of spin with late drop action, but not a heavy rotation
offering at any view this spring. He
shows a projectable change, showed good arm action and potentially highly
deceptive, but it is a work in progress, point to monitor in the future. http://bigleaguefutures.net/1/2013/06/18/2014-mlb-draft-profile-carlos-rodon/
