Big League Futures website has their second mock draft up. They have HS LHP Jonah Wesely going to the Giants at #26. So, let's take a look at Jonah Wesely.
Jonah Wesely, LHP. Tracy, CA HS. DOB: 12/8/1994. 6'2", 215 lbs. B-L, T-L.
2012 HS: 5-1, 0.95, 37 IP, 13 BB, 79 K's.
Wesely has a stocky body that reminds me a lot of Brett Anderson of the A's. He has what I would call a drop and drive delivery with some effort. Terrific arm speed. In a scouting video form the Perfect Game All American Classic in San Diego, he looked like he had a bit of a wild hair up his nose, as Kruk would say.
Big League Futures scouting report has him at 88-93 with the fastball. Perfect Game also has him at 92-93. He also has a curve that is above average now with plus potential and a developing changeup that shows potential.
I like Wesely. Worst case scenario is he turns into a useful lefthanded reliever who can face an occasional RH batter and get away with it. Best case is he's a workhorse #3, 4 starter. Not necessarily someone I'd be ecstatic about the Giants drafting in the first round, but I wouldn't be disappointed either.
