2011 DRAFT: - Dietrich Enns, Shon Carson, Colton Murray, Javier Baez... and Brian Brickhouse

Dietrich Enns:



10-15-10 from: - http://www.thecollegebaseballblog.com/2010/10/15/dietrich-enns-central-michigan-top-100-countdown  - LHP Central Michigan pitcher Dietrich Enns. He is from Frankfort Illinois and attended Lincoln Way East High School. He had an outstanding junior season going 7-3 with an ERA of 1.30 as he earned all-conference and all-area honors. He was even better as a sophomore with a 12-0 record with a 1.10 ERA. He made an immediate impact for Central Michigan in 2010 as he appeared in 20 games (two starts) with a perfect 7-0 record while having an ERA of 2.12. He was even better in MAC play going 4-0 while posting a 1.23 ERA. He ended up pitching a total of 59.1 innings while striking out 64 batters and walking 27 batters. He held opponents to a .168 batting average against. He won multiple awards including being named MAC Freshman of the Year and tabbed first-team All-MAC. Louisville Slugger also named him a Freshman All-American



Shon Carson:


10-18-10: - http://www.prospectwire.com/pw/article.php?id=159  - Perhaps the most usable speed belongs to #9 Shon Carson (Lake City HS, SC), who has the quick acceleration of a basestealer. He also generates big league bat-speed with wood and has an average arm, but at a solidly built 5’9”, 188 lbs, Carson has less projection than the other Top-10 outfielders.


Colton Murray:


10-14 from: - http://www.thecollegebaseballblog.com/2010/10/14/top-100-countdown-number-91-colton-murray-kansas/#more-30383  - RHP - In 2010, he appeared in 27 games out of the bullpen for a total of 31.2 innings. He finished the season with a record of 1-2 including four saves with a 4.83 ERA. He had 36 strikeouts, walking 17 batters and holding them to a .331 batting average while righties came in at .274. He spent the summer of 2010 in the Cape Cod Baseball League with the Brewster Whitecaps. He made 18 relief appearances going 1-1 including eight saves with a 0.49 ERA in 19 innings pitched. He struck out 25 batters while holding opponents to a .207 batting average against. He was named to the 2010 Cape Cod Baseball League All-Star game where he pitched a scoreless inning while giving up one hit and striking out two batters. (TCBB Recap
Live Blog) Keith Law of ESPN.com named him a top 30 prospect in the Cape Cod Baseball League this summer. In the article, Law gave a scouting report on him saying “Murray’s a pure reliever who worked at 91 to 93 mph with some life up in the zone and a short slider at 82 to 83 that was extremely sharp



Javier Baez:


10-12-10 from: - http://www.prospectwire.com/pw/article.php?id=157  - Javier Baez (Arlington Country Day, FL) stands 5’10”, 170 lbs and doesn’t look much like Scott Rolen or Evan Longoria. Exceedingly smooth and athletic, Baez has already been ranked #2 among the nation’s best middle infielders and #3 among catchers. Nevertheless, the hot corner may be his most natural position. Baez projects as a high-average hitter more than a slugger, but could certainly develop power down the road. It’s his defensive prowess and athleticism that stands out above power, Baez has gold glove potential at the hot corner with his very quick hands and plus range.


Bryan Brickhouse


8-14-10 from: - http://www.5tooltalk.com/notes-mainpage.html  - Brickhouse is a good looking athlete with well balanced proportions. His first pitch was a 92 mph fastball with that pitch ranging from 88-92 in his inning of work, and his heater gets solid movement when it is thrown in the upper-80s. He also throws both a curveball (upper-70s) and a slider (low-80s) which are basically the thrown pitch just thrown a little differently depending if he wants to drop it in the zone or get batters fishing in the dirt. He appeared to be rubbing his left (non-throwing) elbow in between pitches, but I hadn’t heard if anything was wrong.
