The extremely deep bullpen is anchored by college baseball’s
hardest thrower, sophomore righty Nick Burdi
(3-3, 0.88 with 56 strikeouts and 11 walks in 31 innings), who routinely runs
his fastball into the triple digits (5-29-13)

Philip Pfeifer, LHP,
Vanderbilt - In high school, Pfeifer went 46-4 with 465 strikeouts and won four
state titles for Farragut HS in Tennessee. He wasn’t drafted until the 44th
round because everyone knew he was going to Vanderbilt. Over 16.2 innings as a
freshman, he had a 3.24 ERA and 8 K/9 BB. The 6’-1”, 190-pound left-hander made
a relief appearance on February 16 against Long Beach State, allowing one
unearned run on three hits over 1.1 innings. Since then, he has made three
starts and has been brilliant for the third-ranked Commodores. Over 18.2
innings, he has allowed one run on nine hits, striking out 23 to eight walks.
Your prototypical “crafty” southpaw, what he lacks in velocity, he makes up for
in command and ability to mix his pitches well. http://throughthefencebaseball.com/2014-mlb-draft/29840#DWT4fu7C2Dic4cKl.99
I caught a game of Austin Couino earlier
this year and the smallish lefty-hitting center fielder is a tightly-wound
quick-twitch machine with surprising double digit homer power potential and
above average speed. He's got some wildness to his game and rawness to his
swing mechanics that should be fixable, along with the kind of moxie to keep it
