San Diego State ace Michael
Cederoth struggled last weekend — 3 2/3 IP, 3 H, 3 ER, 4 BB, 6 SO — and
needed a relief appearance mid-week to get in his work. He walked a batter in
that inning, too. He’s no Stephen Strasburg, but he’s better than that. Or at
least he’ll need to be to avoid falling off the map. One additional Aztecs
note: freshman catcher CJ Saylor started mid-week versus Loyola Marymount and
went 2-for-4 with two extra-base hits. Remember the name, he’ll be a legit
prospect in 2016. http://prospectinsider.com/draft-prospect-watch-hoffman-vs-fisher
3-25-14 – MLB Draft Insider Mock – 22 Michael Gettys OF Gainesville HS (Ga.) -
There’s no denying Gettys’ athletic ability, and he has one of the
strongest throwing arms in the entire class and some power potential; but that
doesn’t mean much if Gettys’ can’t hit, which is still very much in doubt. http://mlbdraftinsider.com/2014/03/the-board-2014-volume-ii/
2-23-14 - A.J. Reed
- Has “it”. On the mound, he’s a back of the rotation starter or middle
reliever with three pitches. Fringy fastball, average breaking ball and good
change. Fastball could tick up with strength and conditioning. At the plate, he
has some swing and miss but also induces the HSE. The HSE or Holy Shit Effect
is brought on occasionally by players that unleash tools or accomplishes
something that one would not expect them to possess. When he lauches a ball 420′
to RCF in a game when he doesn’t hit them that far in BP, you say holy shit.
Love this guy. He’s a ball player. http://mlbdraftprospects.com/aj-reed/
1-3-14 – TTF Baseball - 66. Oakland Athletics — 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-2/40753#ppGUqI6CbWFvzsPf.99
2-11-14 – PG/Florida HS Dream Team – C – J.J. Schwarz, Sr. Palm Beach Gardens -
Finding a catcher who projects to stay behind the plate at the next level isn’t
always an easy task, never mind a defensive catcher that shows big potential at
the plate. That’s exactly what you’ll find in Schwarz, who shows solid
catch-and-throw ability behind the plate with a quick release and a strong,
accurate arm to second base in game action. At the plate, the 6-foot-2 Schwarz
uses his long limbs to create leverage in his easy and loose swing, repeatedly
driving the ball to deep left field. He shows good bat speed and the ball seems
to jump of his barrel and finds a second gear once in flight. http://perfectgame.org/Articles/View.aspx?article=9372
