San Francisco Fog
With great success comes lousy draft position. For the Fog, it was pick 32. They used that to take high school RP Jonathan Garland. My scouts are actually quite high on him....which make mw wonder what they have been smoking. Actually, he looks like a good pitcher for that draft position. The lefty throws well to batters on both sides of the plate with good velocity and two good pitches.
Grade B+
Scottsdale Cardinals
With pick #21, the Cards took college RHP Xander Segui. He looks like a capable SP who will be a bottom of the rotation type. He does have very good velocity and his curve and slider will be good pitches, but the other 3 pitches are below average. Control and splits are all good. All in all, about a number four starter.
Grade B-
Honolulu Luau Dawgs
With pick fifteen, Honolulu selected JUCO RF Ronnie Grebeck. He has a very strong arm, but otherwise his fielding screams 1B. He has plus power and batting eye, with above average splits and average contact skills and speed/base running. Also, very adept at getting hit by pitches. Should be a solid player who could make an All-Star team or two.
Grade B
Salt Lake City Trappers
Well, this is a source of shame for my scouting department. They did not see pitcher Harold Ramirez, the number two pick in the draft. Salt Lake must be playing hardball in contract negotiations as he is not signed and appears willing to settle for slot money.
Grade Incomplete
