1-3-14 – TTF Baseball - 29. St. Louis Cardinals — Nick Burdi, RHP, Louisville - I just
keep imagining a bullpen of Burdi, Trevor Rosenthal and Jason Motte — all three
capable of hitting triple-digits on the radar gun. Burdi, a 6’-4”, 215 pound
right-hander who most certainly will remain a reliever due to his lack of a
third pitch, put together a monstrous season for Louisville last year. Over
35.2 innings, he posted a 0.76 ERA with 62 K/13 BB for a silly 15.7 K/9 ratio.
Aside from his plus/plus fastball, he also adds a slider that sits in the 88-91
mph range and completely baffles hitters who are waiting on his fastball. http://throughthefencebaseball.com/2014-mlb-draft-2/40753#ppGUqI6CbWFvzsPf.99
12-9-13 – Pine Tar Press
- 26- LHP Mac Marshall Parkview HS (LSU Commit) 1/27/96- His HS has become a
must stop for cross checkers the last 3 years with former first rounder’s Matt
Olson and Josh Hart playing there. He comes in fast on hitters because of the
drive in his delivery. He works with 3 pitches and has a change up that he uses
a lot. A low 90’s guy now, Marshall is easy to dream on as a future #2 or 3 SP
in the big leagues. (Dodgers @ 25) http://pinetarpress.com/early-look-2014-mlb-draft/
12-10-13 – TTF – Top 50 HS Players - 26. Derek Hill, OF, Elk Grove HS (CA) - One
of the better defensive outfielders in the 2014 MLB draft, the 6’-2”
right-hander has been timed at 6.44 in the 60 and his arm has been clocked at
93 mph from the outfield. His instincts, route running and speed allow him to
make highlight plays in center and he should stick at the premium position. At
the plate, he shows good bat speed and developing power. Committed to Oregon. http://throughthefencebaseball.com/2014-mlb-draft-top-50/40532#zz88YJZTOG8iEa1Z.99
