12-9-13 – Pine Tar Press
- 46-RHP Nick Burdi Louisville 1/19/93- The top collegiate closer who
consistently flirts with 100 off the bump. He is a high-energy pitcher who
doesn’t waste any juice when he is throwing. He backs up his late moving
fastball with a plus slider. Guys like Burdi tend to move through organizations
fast so he would be a guy that you could see be the first from his class to
reach the majors. (Out of first round- Brewers selection) http://pinetarpress.com/early-look-2014-mlb-draft/
1-1-14 - Jack Barrie
- 1B - 2014 - Maleny, AUS - Barrie put
his strength on display, launching 4 home runs, 1 of which was to deep
centerfield, showing a short quick swing with high level hitting tools.

12-10-13 – TTF – Top 50 HS Players - 35. Alex Destino, LHP, North Buncombe HS
(NC) - At 6′-3″ and 220 pounds, the southpaw can dial it up to 93 mph and shows
a good feel for his secondary stuff. He still needs to refine his pitches, but
with his size and easy delivery, there is a lot of upside. Committed to South
Carolina. http://throughthefencebaseball.com/2014-mlb-draft-top-50/40532#zz88YJZTOG8iEa1Z.99
I can see Burdi being the Mets closer next year.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure the Mets would have the guts to draft an RP with their first pick
