6-30-13 - Frankie Piliere @FPilierePG - Mason McCullough says
hello. Sitting 97-98 mph in his @HarwichMariners debut @DiamondHeels
6-13-13 - 25. Pittsburgh Pirates — Mike Papi, OF, Virginia - The 6’-3”, 200 pound
left-hander wasn’t even a starter until the 11th game of the season. Since
then, he has been one of the best hitters in college, including leading the
nation in OBP. Over 53 games, he hit .393 with 15 doubles, six home runs, 55
RBI and drew 43 walks to just 22 strikeouts for a .527 OBP/.625 SLG. With an
advanced approach at the plate, and the size that suggests more power will
come, Papi could erupt next season. He can also flash the leather in the
outfield. LINK
6-24-13 - Player: Spencer Turnbull Position: RHP
School: Alabama Date of Birth: 9/18/1992
Height/Weight: 6’3/220 Bats/Throws:
R/R 2014 Class: College Junior Previously Drafted: 2011. 2nd Rd, Brewers Scouting Report: - from Don Olsen on 6/18/2013
- Good frame and bit of lower half development that looks the part of a 215-220
pound type power RHP in a Matt Cain type mold.
High slot and upright delivery shows higher plane more suited to a
pitcher a few inches taller. Fastball,
90-94 (95) mph, has some plane that makes it tough to square up, but not much
movement and does not change eye levels.
His secondary’s are a work in progress, shows a 12/6 power curve, 79-81
mph, with his slot should be able to sit above average. Change is not quite present, but flashes
it. Change progression is a point to
monitor and could raise his stock. LINK
6-13-13 - 28. Cincinnati Reds — Gareth Morgan, OF, North Toronto Collegiate (ON) - The 2014 prep
class is full of big time power bats and Morgan, a 6’-4”, 210 pound
right-hander, has as much of it as anyone else on this list. He is more raw
than the players listed above and he has had mixed results when he has faced
elite competition. All of the tools are there, however, including excellent bat
speed and a good approach, he just needs to refine it. LINK
6-27-13 - OREGON STATE - The Beavers fell short of a
national title in Omaha this June, but should return to TD Ameritrade Park next
summer. OSU will have some question marks entering the season. For instance,
replacing veteran left-handed pitcher Matt Boyd won't be easy, but they welcome
back several key cogs, both at the plate and on the mound. Offensively, the
Beavers will welcome back their top four hitters in All-American outfielder
Michael Conforto, Dylan Davis, Andy Peterson and Kavin Keyes. Additionally, the
pitching staff will again be stout. Right-handed pitcher Andrew Moore is back
in the saddle as the staff ace, while it would be a surprise if Jace Fry
doesn't have a dominant campaign. The No. 3 starting spot is up for grabs, but
reliever Max Engelbrekt could move to that spot if he gets stronger in the
season. And get this, the Beavers are surprisingly confident left-handed
pitcher Ben Wetzler, who was a fifth-round pick to the Phillies, returns to
Corvallis, Ore., for his senior campaign. We're not counting that as a likely
scenario at this point, but it's something to watch moving forward. Meanwhile,
reliever Scott Schultz could very well be back for OSU, while newcomers on the
mound such as Kevin Flemer, Chandler Eden and John Pomeroy are potential
instant impact arms. In terms of newcomers in the field, catchers Logan Ice and
Mason Fishback are talented backstops who will battle for Jake Rodriguez's
vacated spot, while shortstop Trevor Morrison is expected to step in and take
the place of departed middle infielder Tyler Smith. LINK
