As mentioned in the comments from the last Game Wrap, the Giants placed two pitchers, Clayton Blackburn(4) and Joan Gregorio(18) on the list. I'm happy to see them both included and I think the placings are about right. I'm a bit surprised, pleasantly, to see Blackburn ranked that high.
A couple of comments:
1. College draftees have no chance of making the list, no matter how well they perform. BA puts a huge amount of weight on age vs level.
2. I personally think Leonardo Fuentes should be on the list, but what do I know?
BTW, John Sickels did a series on 2011 draft sleepers for each team. His choice for the Giants was RHP Derek Law. He said the Giants had several good candidates and mentioned Mike Merganthaler and Shawn Payne specifically.

What do you guys think of the pitchers selected for the AZ Fall League ?
ReplyDeleteI'm a big Seth Rosin supporter and he didn't pitch all that many innings so he's a great choice.
ReplyDeleteFleet is a sleeper who might turn into something. Also needs more innings. Don't really have an opinion on Harrold. Haven't seen him pitch and haven't read any scouting reports and his stats are a bit inscrutable. Maday is roster filler.
Dumb question: Does MLB.tv have video of the AFL games (or any other source) ?
ReplyDeleteIf not, are the Scottsdale games broadcast in any way (audio or video)?
It's a bit of a challenge to even find the box scores, so I doubt it. Anyone else have any info?
