High School Players on the Rise – Sean
Reid-Foley, RHP, Sandalwood HS (FL) - The 6’-4”, 200 pound right-hander has
been blowing away the competition this season. Over 16 innings, he has 37
strikeouts to just one walk, allowing two hits. He has a plus fastball that can
touch 94 mph with late life and movement and a plus, filthy curveball that sits
mid-70s. I have heard that he has cleaned up his mechanics and is looking like
a top-15 pick in the 2014 MLB draft the way he has been pitching. Committed to
Florida State. http://throughthefencebaseball.com/2014-mlb-draft-10-high-school-players-rise/41773#oFu0m6JRyhOHXIwD.99
3-26-14 - Jakson Reetz - Senior catcher/right-handed
pitcher, Norris (Firth, Neb.) - Greatness Present: On the eve of the opening
game of his final spring on a prep baseball diamond, Reetz told the Omaha
World-Herald, “I want to get the best out of this season.” So far, so good. In
the first game of his senior season, the state’s returning Gatorade Baseball
Player of the Year belted a pair of home runs, added a double and reached on an
error in a 3-for-4 effort at the plate. He drove in five runs and scored three
times in an 11-0 win over Lincoln as the Titans (1-0) embarked on their Class B
state title defense. The 6-foot-1, 195-pound Reetz, ranked as the No. 28 prospect
nationally by Perfect Game USA, also called senior teammate Matt Johnson’s
three-hit shutout from behind the plate. Not a bad start http://www.usatodayhss.com/article/national-poy-watch-jakson-reetz
3-9-14 – MLB Draft Insider - Bradley Zimmer – OF San Francisco – San Francisco won a one to
nothing contest against California on Saturday and it was thanks to Zimmer.
Zimmer was two for four with a run and a strikeout on the day. He hit a homerun
in the sixth which was the only run scored in the game. It was his first
homerun of the year. http://mlbdraftinsider.com/2014/03/the-rundown-march-8/#more-3872
3-5-14 – TTF - 10 college players on the rise — week 3 - Jordan
Brink, RHP, Fresno State (68) - The 6’-1” right-hander wowed scouts when he
was hitting 96 mph with his fastball this fall. He adds a low-80s slider that
has looked plus this year and his change-up is rapidly improving. In his latest
brilliant outing, Brink out-dueled Daniel Mengden and Texas A&M, allowing
just one hit over seven shutout innings, striking out five and walking three.
On the season, he has now allowed one run on six hits over 21.1 innings,
striking out 15 to seven walks. He has been mentioned as a possible first-round
pick by some experts. http://throughthefencebaseball.com/2014-mlb-draft-week-3/41478#ilZqhEaASo2Kkjik.99
MIF - Trace Loehr,
Sr., Putnam (Ore.) - Loehr makes his second consecutive appearance in this spot
thanks to his high level combination of quick defensive actions and quick hands
at the plate. He's a high level performer with a proven track record, not only
for Putnam but also with Team USA and at numerous high level showcase events. http://www.perfectgame.org/Articles/View.aspx?article=9561
