Behind the plate, Kyle calls a solid game and is very adept at blocking balls in the dirt. There is some question about the higher mistakes, and his arm is a little below average. Offensively, Dahlberg possesses enough speed to maybe swipe 15-20 bases a season. He also makes good contact with the ball, though not much in the way of the long ball. | ||||||||||||||||||||

| Scouting | 6' 3" 185lbs. Although tall and lanky right now, Michael Kirkman has the potential to develop into a left-handed power pitcher. He has great form, broad shoulders, and a solid lower half. His fastball has been clocked at 88mph. Michael adds that to a slider, a curveball, and a developing split-finger. Obviously a very long-term project, Kikman wants the big bucks now and is willing to wait 5 or 6 years to make it big. | ||||||||||||||||||||

| Scouting | 6' 5" 220 lbs. Matthew Goyen is a curveball pitcher. He uses his curve in combination with a fastball and circle change to pick at the corners. Although a larger pitcher, Matt's fastball really is below average and usually tops out at about 86-87 mph. A very intelligent pitcher, Goyen knows how to use his pitches in combination and not rely on the strikeout to be effective. The only question is whether his ability will hold up at a major league level. | ||||||||||||||||||||

Armed with two explosive pitches, a fastball and a slider, he will attack batters. Craig's arm motion, a sling shot with a slight elbow drop, really makes it hard for batters to pick up the pitch. Right-handers, in particularl, are often surprised by the speed, a la Mariano Rivera. Scouts are really impressed with the way he throws strikes. | ||||||||||||||||||||

He pitches pissed, and just blows you away with 95-97 mph fastballs. Jason's two favorite locations are up and in and up and inner ear. When he can control it, his curve drops straight off the table. With a closer's mentality, he'll keep the fans around for those late innings. | ||||||||||||||||||||

More of a middle relief pitcher than a closer, Patrick could actually wind up as long relief or even a spot starter. His biggest asset is his cat-like quickness to first base, virtually shutting down a running game. | ||||||||||||||||||||

Perez delivers the ball with an extreme lean to his right and whips his arm through. This type of motion is cause for injury concern down the road. | ||||||||||||||||||||

Patrick was a starter for his first two seasons in college, but really blossomed his junior and senior years with a shift to the bullpen. Scouts project him as middle relief/set-up guy with good stamina. His curveball is a little soft, but has a good chance of eventually being his out pitch. | ||||||||||||||||||||

Brandon uses his fastball to get a head early and then uses his slider to grab the K. He has also been working on a late breaking, 12-6 curve and a change-up. Dudren could need a couple seasons to mature before he makes it to the big league. | ||||||||||||||||||||
