Michael Cederoth
6-9-13 -
5.Michael Cederoth, RHP (San Diego State): Currently sits from 92-98,
although he’s been clocked at 100 on his fastball in 2013. Both his slider and
curve have shown flashes of being plus. http://www.minorleaguerundown.com/2013/06/09/2014-mlb-draft-top-30-prospects/
6-9-13 - 5. Chicago Cubs — Michael
Cederoth, RHP, San Diego State - He is 6′-6″, 210 pounds and can touch 100 mph
with his fastball. Shall I go on? He also adds a mid-80s slider, as well as a
mid-80s change-up that is more of an out pitch. His command can be shaky at
times as he is still learning how to be a pitcher instead of just running his
overpowering fastball. Over 15 starts this year, he had a 4.25 ERA, 1.26 WHIP
and 109 K/48 BB over 95.1 innings. If he works on his command the way Jonathan
Gray did this year, as well as refine his off-speed stuff, he could challenge
Beede and Rodon for the top pick. http://throughthefencebaseball.com/2014-mlb-mock-draft-1-0-no-time-like-the-present/34008#Vj5KQGPZZT1XUyhx.99
6-10-13 - Michael Cederoth, RHP, San Diego
State - Cederoth may have the best arm among those under consideration early in
the first round. He has a high 90′s
fastball that hits 100. His slider also
shows plus potential, while his change also had promise. http://bigleaguefutures.net/1/2013/06/10/2014-mlb-draft-early-college-names-to-know/
6-11-13 - 8. Michael Cederoth, RHP, San
Diego State: The 6-foot-6 right-hander's numbers this year weren't outstanding,
thanks largely to some command issues, but he did strike out 109 in 95 1/3
innings and sported an upper-90s fastball at times. http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20130611&content_id=50293726&vkey=news_mlb&c_id=mlb&tcid=tw_article_50293726
Chicago Cubs — Michael Cederoth, RHP, San
Diego State - He is 6‘-6“, 210 pounds and can touch 100 mph with his fastball.
Shall I go on? He also adds a mid-80’s slider, as well as a mid-80’s change
8-14-13 – Through The Fence – Top 50
Prospects – 10. Michael Cederoth, RHP, San Diego State- He is 6′-6“, 210 pounds
and can touch 100 mph with his fastball. Shall I go on? He also adds a mid-80s
slider, as well as a mid-80s change-up that is more of an out pitch. His

instead of just running his overpowering fastball. Over 15 starts this year, he
had a 4.25 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 109 K/48 BB over 95.1 innings. If he works on his
command the way Jonathan Gray did last year, as well as refine his off-speed
stuff, he should be one of the first college pitchers off the board. http://throughthefencebaseball.com/2014-mlb-draft-top-50-prospects/36463#mwWwsFxSUZy7YC5V.99
Top 5 MLB Draft Prospects - #5. Michael
Cederoth, RHP (San Diego State): He is
6′-6″, 210 pounds, his fastball at this time stands from 92-98, granting
however- he’s been clocked at 100 in 2013. Mutually his slider and curve have
displayed bursts of being plus, he possesses a mid-80s change-up that is more
of an out pitch. His location can be precarious at times as he is still
learning how to be a pitcher instead of just running his overwhelming fastball.
Over 15 starts this year, he had a 4.25 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 109 K/48 BB over
95.1 innings. If he works on his command, as well as upgrade his off-speed
stuff, he may well contest Beede and Rodon for the top pick. http://bigleaguefutures.net/1/2013/08/30/top-5-mlb-draft-prospects/
9-4-13 – Mack’s Mock Draft v1.0 – 17 – RHP Michael Cederoth – San Diego State – 6-6
power pitcher that has fell down the list due to all the press this season by
the high schooler. Still, he is routinely clocked at 100 with a mid-80’s slider
to boot. 109 K/48 BB over 95.1 innings this past season. He does need to work on his control but don’t
be surprised if he doesn’t go higher next June.
9-8-13 – Exclusive – There might be some
injury news involving San Diego State RHP Michael Cederith that could be
driving him down the mock drafts as that season progresses. Confidentail word
is he pitched most of 2-13 with a similar partial tear that the Mets’ Michael
Harvey currently has it this should drive him out of any consideration as a
first round pick.

10-6-13 – Kendall Rogers/PG – College
Prospects - 7. Michael Cederoth, rhp, San Diego State (Drafted: 2011,
Diamondbacks -- 41st round) - The ultra-talented Cederoth is yet another
prospect who could rise a few spots with a strong 2014 campaign. Cederoth, a
striking 6-foot-6, 210-pounder, showed better command last season with 109
strikeouts and 48 walks, but could still use some advancements in that area of
his game. Otherwise, Cederoth throws four pitches, his 95-101 fastball the
showcased pitch. http://www.perfectgame.org/Articles/View.aspx?article=9081
11-5-13 – TTF - Michael Cederoth, a
6-foot-6, 210-pound right-hander, has the size baseball personnel covet. It
didn’t take him long to establish himself in the Aztecs rotation, and the 67
1/3 innings he threw his freshman year were the second most on the team. He
managed a 20.1 percent strikeout rate along with a 15.7 percent walk rate. In
his sophomore year, Cederoth threw 95 1/3 innings in 15 starts. The strikeout
and walk rates improved to 27.3 percent 12.0 percent, respectively. Cederoth
uses a herky-jerky delivery with a high leg kick and some back turn. Throwing
from a high three-quarters arm slot, he gets very good downward plane on his
pitches. He gets very good extension. Cederoth uses a big arm swing, which
results in the ball dipping well below his waist before he delivers. With most
pitchers, this would be a difficult delivery to repeat, but Cederoth is a very
good athlete, and stays pretty consistent with his motion. Still, his delivery
probably will be tinkered with at the next level. http://throughthefencebaseball.com/profiling-2014-mlb-draft-michael-cederoth/39602#MEeDqWBQWYDUurWR.99
11-6-13 –
PG -- The scouting world didn’t get their dose of flame-throwing San
Diego State righty, Michael Cederoth this summer, and because of that, his fall
outings are garnering more attention than they would typically get. Since
Cederoth did not pitch on Cape Cod, for Team USA, or anywhere else for that
matter, the most recent reports come from his sophomore season. The 6-foot-6
right-hander’s velocity exploits are well documented, as he is known to
frequently pitch in the upper 90s with his fastball and touch as high as 100
mph. Cederoth took the mound on Friday
afternoon at Tony Gwynn Stadium, where he was scheduled to throw four innings
in San Diego State’s intrasquad game. But, if you looked at the large scouting
contingent in attendance, you certainly wouldn’t know this was only a very
controlled scrimmage among teammates.
The San Diego State ace did not bring out of his best velocity on
Friday, and for most in attendance, the assessment was that this was probably
somewhat intentional. We’ll keep an eye on it, but more than anything else
Cederoth appeared to be striving for command and movement in favor of pure
velocity. He worked consistently at 91-93 mph with his fastball, but throughout
his four innings was able to reach for an easy 95 mph fastball whenever he
wanted it. If he needed to sit around 95 mph, which we know he’s capable of, it
appeared he could have done it quite easily.
More interesting, however, was the frequency of Cederoth’s breaking
ball, and his variance of it. To the naked eye, Cederoth threw as many, or
more, off-speed pitches as he did fastballs, and was mostly very effective with
that approach. He mixed a 12-6 curveball at 76-78 mph that he even dropped down
to 73 mph with late in his outing. But, his real put away pitch is his 81-85
mph slider. Although the bite on this pitch was a little inconsistent, when he
got on top and not around it, it had the look of a plus or 60 offering on the
20-80 scale. http://www.perfectgame.org/Articles/View.aspx?article=9172
11-27-13 – Big League Futures Top 25 Poll – 15 Michael Cederoth RHP San Diego State http://bigleaguefutures.net/1/2013/11/26/mlb-draft-top-25-prospects-poll/
B/R – 11-21-13 - 21. Cincinnati Reds:
Michael Cederoth, RHP, San Diego State - Michael Cederoth made a name for
himself last season by sitting 95-99 mph with his fastball as a starter and
maxing out at 101 mph. However, as a 6’6”, 210-pound right-hander, Cederoth has
some uneasiness to his delivery and appears almost uncoordinated at times. That
said, it’s not as though near-elite velocity grows on trees. Cederoth’s
secondary arsenal is comprised of a slider and changeup, both of which register
in the mid-80s but lack consistency. The slider is the better pitch at the
present, though they both flash above-average potential. http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1860341-2014-mlb-mock-draft-early-first-round-projections-for-all-30-teams/page/10
12-9-13 – Pine Tar Press - 11-
RHP Michael Cederoth San Diego St 11/25/92- I watched Cederoth throw last March
on TV vs USD and it was obvious he was going to be a name for the 2014 draft.
He certainly has a big time arm but it was also clear he was in need of some
refinement. The 6’6 righty can dial it up near 100 and if he can show more
command with his pitches this spring he could easily enter the discussion as a
top 10 pick. (Rockies @ 9) http://pinetarpress.com/early-look-2014-mlb-draft/
1-3-14 – TTF Baseball - 19. Washington
Nationals — Michael Cederoth, RHP, San Diego State - The Nationals love tall,
power arms and Cederoth definitely fit’s the bill. At 6’-6” and 210 pounds, the
right-hander can sling it up to 99 mph and sits in the mid 90s. He also adds a
mid-80s slider, as well as a mid-80s change-up that is more of an out pitch.
His command can be shaky at times as he is still learning how to be a pitcher
instead of just running his overpowering fastball. Over 15 starts this year, he
had a 4.25 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 109 K/48 BB over 95.1 innings. If he works on his
command the way Jonathan Gray did last year, as well as refine his off-speed
stuff, he should be one of the first college pitchers off the board. http://throughthefencebaseball.com/2014-mlb-draft-2/40753#ppGUqI6CbWFvzsPf.99
