1-20-14 – PG Preseason College All-Americans - Starting
Pitcher - Carlos Rodon, NC State -
2013 Stats: 2.99 ERA, 132 1/3 IP, 184 K, 45 BB, .200 OPP BA - It really doesn’t
get any better than Rodon in college baseball. Rodon has a physical frame at
6-foot-3, 234 pounds, and is incredibly difficult to hit, especially when he
has the slider working from the left side. Rodon has a fastball into the
mid-90s, a solid slider in the mid- to upper-80s, and a low-80s changeup that
continues to develop. Assuming he has a good 2014 campaign, look for Rodon to
be the top overall pick in the MLB draft next summer. http://www.perfectgame.org/Articles/View.aspx?article=9294
1-3-14 – TTF Baseball - 69. St. Louis Cardinals — David Peterson, LHP, Regis Jesuit HS
(CO) - Peterson is a big southpaw (6′-6“, 215 pounds) with an easy delivery.
His fastball sits in the 88-92 mph range and his curveball has plus potential.
He offers a classic three-pitch mix and has a good feel for pitching. Committed
to Oregon. http://throughthefencebaseball.com/2014-mlb-draft-2/40753#ppGUqI6CbWFvzsPf.99
12-9-13 – Pine Tar Press
- 16- OF/LHP Alex Verdugo Sahuaro HS (Arizona State Commit) 5/15/96- Word is you
are not getting Verdugo as a pitcher in this draft as he loves to hit. That
being said, he is the best hitter in this draft at the HS level. He never has a
cheap AB and certainly seems to be a student of the excellent CD by Steve
Springer on Quality At Bats. He is more of a line drive guy at this point and
that is fine because he has one of those qualities where he seems to catch the
ball and spin it where he wants. On the mound, he has very good mechanics and
works a low 90’s fastball and solid secondary pitches. (Angels @15) http://pinetarpress.com/early-look-2014-mlb-draft/
