#33 Craig Clark. LHP. BD: 07-09-1984. 6'2", 200 lbs.

Craig Clark had a phenomenal season for San Jose last year. So, why is he ranked this low in my prospect rankings? Look at his birthdate. Clark is a classic "polished" college draftee pitcher who can dominate at the lower levels, but hits a wall at some point at higher levels because the competition gets better, but he doesn't. Now, maybe Clark is the exception, his lefthandedness certainly works in his favor, but he's going to have to prove it each step along the way. The closest comp I can see from just looking at his stats since being drafted is Pat Misch. Pat Misch did pitch very well for the Mets at the end of last season. I would project Craig Clark to be a starter for AA Richmond to begin the 2010 season.
