Draft 14 – Colton Hock, Jakson Reetz, Isan Diaz, Touki Toussaint, Jeff Hoffman

draft - colton hock


8-30-13 - Player:  Colton Hock   Primary Position:  RHP  Height/Weight:  6’5/215  Home Town:  Bloomsburg, PA  School:  Bloomsburg Area  Class of:  2014  - Committed To:  Stanford - Scouting Notes: -  2013 USA Baseball Tournament of Stars Notes from Don Olsen - Colton has a slightly sloped wide frame with decent lower half development in a Chris Tillman type mold.  He does show present development, but could fill out and gain a ton of additional strength; there is more velocity in the arm.  He throws from a high ¾ to OH delivery.  Delivery is fast, not effort best.  Good push and drive, gets weight over well, a good deal of things to like with it.  Arm action is sound, shows good arm speed.  Fastball is 88-90 and loses cursing speed early, point of maturation and projection.  Slider, 79-84 mph, was a bit inconsistent, but showed 11/4 glove side action went he snapped it off, flashes above average potential.  He throws a circle change, 78-80 mph, with the nice two-way hand side fade. Colton flashes three solid offerings with the frame an arm speed that is a high follow into next spring. http://bigleaguefutures.net/1/2013/08/28/2014-mlb-draft-profile-colton-hock/

8-14-13 – Through The Fence – Top 50 Prospects – 26. Jakson Reetz, C/RHP, Norris HS (NE) - A terrific athlete and two-way player, the 6’-1”, 200-pound right-hander’s ability to stick behind the plate make him a highly touted prospect. More of a line drive hitter now, more power should come as he matures, and he has the bat speed to back it up. Can hit the low-90s on the mound so his arm plays well behind the plate and he makes for a big target. Committed to Nebraska. http://throughthefencebaseball.com/2014-mlb-draft-top-50-prospects/36463#mwWwsFxSUZy7YC5V.99

2013 East Coast Pro Showcase Top 50 Prospects   40. Isan Diaz – SS, Springfield Central (MA) HS - 5’10, 175 SS who can really play defense and was swinging it well all week. http://www.ninebaseball.org/Wordpress/sullys-top-50-ecp-prospects/

9-1-13 - Keith Law - Touki Toussaint showed his usual arm strength, although 89-94 is actually a little low for him. His curveball, at 72-73 mph, ranged from a 59-footer to an absolute hammer, but he had no command of anything. That has been the norm for him in showcases. He's lean and athletic with a quick arm and he's hit 97 mph lots of times, but I'd like to see Touki (pronounced TOO-key) show he can pitch too. www.baseballamerica.com

9-1-13 - Jim Callis – 2. Jeff Hoffman, rhp, East Carolina - Starred in Cape Cod League last two summers with mid-90s fastball, big-breaking curve.
