1-3-14 – TTF Baseball - 34. Colorado Rockies — Michael Kopech, RHP, Mount Pleasant HS
(TX) - The 6’-3” right-hander worked on his mechanics over the summer and it
showed at the 2013 Under Armour Game at Wrigley Field. His fastball was popping
the mitt, hitting the mid 90s with explosive life. He also showed his plus
slider with hard bite as he worked a quick inning. There is still projection
there and his frame suggests more velocity could still come. Had 129 K/33 BB
over 80.1 innings as a junior. http://throughthefencebaseball.com/2014-mlb-draft-2/40753#ppGUqI6CbWFvzsPf.99
12-9-13 – Pine Tar Press
- 45-LHP Kyle Freeland Evansville 5/14/93- He had been very inconsistent in
college before emerging last summer on the Cape where he led the league in K’s
with 48 while walking just 4. He has a funky delivery that adds deception but
it also certainly registers some concern for future health. He works with a low
90’s fastball and a solid slider/cutter.(Out of first round- Indians selection)

12-10-13 – TTF – Top 50 HS Players - 34. Justin Smith, OF, Bartram Trails HS
(FL) - The 6’-2”, 200-pound right-hander has all five tools, including a canon
arm in the outfield (92 mph) and plus speed (6.6/60). He is still considered
raw in some areas, but his excellent bat speed, along with his frame, make for
a huge upside. He stood out at the East Coast pro tournament making several
strong plays in the outfield and driving the ball to all fields. Many are expecting
a huge senior season. Committed to Miami. http://throughthefencebaseball.com/2014-mlb-draft-top-50/40532#zz88YJZTOG8iEa1Z.99
