Draft 14 – Alex Jackson, Derek Fisher, Jake Fincher, North Carolina State


 
6-12-13 - One of the top hitters at the Area Code Games as a sophomore, Alex Jackson was among the national leaders in home runs again this year with 14. He batted .343 with 33 RBIs while leading Rancho Bernardo to the San Diego Section Open Division championship. http://www.maxpreps.com/news/E9UKfOG1wUq1fo3tzHLHgw/top-10-high-school-baseball-players-to-watch-for-2014-mlb-draft.htm

6-30-13  -  Frankie Piliere ‏@FPilierePG  - Watching @HarwichMariners take BP - the ball acts very different off Derek Fisher's bat. Easy line drives and big CF carry @UVABaseball

6-26-13  -  Player:  Jake Fincher   Position:  OF   School:  NC State  Height/Weight:  6’0/173   Bats/Throws:  R/R   2014 Class:  College Junior   Scouting Report: - from Don Olsen on 6/18/2013 = Jake has a medium athletic lean build.  Patient hitter and very selective, impressive strike zone awareness and pitch recognition.  Keeps his weight back and fights offerings to ride with the pitch when caught off.  Spray contact that can drive the pitch as well, more of a gap power type hitter.  Aggressive on the path, quick first step, caught 3.1 on steal to 2nd base, overall very dangerous on the paths.  Range and glove are solid, arm is good enough.  Jake has the defensive game to transition to CF, but isolated to LF if forced on the corner. http://bigleaguefutures.net/1/2013/06/25/2014-mlb-draft-profile-jake-fincher/

6-27-13  -  North Carolina State: The Wolfpack will have the nation's elite starting pitcher in Carlos Rodon, along with fellow likely starting pitchers Brad Stone and Logan Jernigan. However, the Pack, at this point, has some significant holes to fill in the bullpen with the departures of several impressive arms. The offense also has some losses, though N.C. State returns shortstop Trea Turner and catcher Brett Austin, who we feel like will have a breakout junior campaign http://www.perfectgame.org/Articles/View.aspx?article=8705
