2011 DRAFT: - Jack Marder, Andrew Gagnon, Brandon Sedell, Christian Jones... and Cody Asche

Jack Marder:



7-19 from: - link  - Promising player with a future as a possible utility player in the pros. Not a lot of power, but could hit for some average and he runs pretty well. Won’t be a first baseman in the future, as he was just playing there out of necessity. He’s not playing summer ball to rehab an injury. I think he profiles best at second base, but he could hold down shortstop in a pinch. Second base is probably his most likely future pro position, though. Since he’s going to be an eligible sophomore without summer ball experience, his draft position will be heavily reliant on his signability and his performance next spring. Typically players with his tools go in the 4th-6th round range, but if he comes out swinging a better bat next spring, anything could happen.



Andrew Gagnon:


7-18 from: - link  - On Long Beach State righthander Andrew Gagnon (4-0, 1.69, 35-10 K-BB in 27 IP): "Andrew Gagnon is one to watch for next year: loose arm, 89-92, pretty good feel for a changeup, his slider's in development. He pitches to both sides of the plate and he comes at guys. I think he was the Friday night guy this past year at Long Beach, and I foresee him being really good this year."






Brandon Sedell:


7-13-10: - MaxPreps Junior All-American Baseball Team - Brandon Sedell, American Heritage (Plantation, Fla.), Catcher - Selected as the top 3A player in the state of Florida by the Dairy Farmers Association, Sedell led American Heritage with his prowess at the plate as he batted .612 (52-for-85) with 40 runs, 46 RBI, 11 doubles and 9 home runs. He was also named to the All-Broward County team by the Miami Herald and he was the small school MVP by the Fort Lauderdale Sun Sentinel.


Christian Jones


7-21 from: - link  - Christian Jones (Oregon) delivered an impressive start for Falmouth. In his last outing, the freshman lefty didn’t allow an earned run in six innings. This time, he didn’t allow any runs in another six-inning stint. He struck out four, walked one and gave up three hits. Jones improved to 2-3 and has a 2.63 ERA.







Cody Asche:


7-21 from: - link  - 1b-OF, Cody Asche, Nebraska, Jr, 6'1 215, L/R, lefty sock with lift, 60 power, runs better on the way, 4.4 from left side, enough arm and glove to be contributor at the next level, he's really going to need to hit consistently and I feel he's at least a 280 type hitter which is abv ML ave. Some similarities to Derek Dietrich who was at GT this spring.
