Stetson Woods, RHP. DOB: 1/15/1995. 6'8", 200 lbs. Drafted 2014 Round 9.
SS: 3-2, 3.36, 64.1 IP, 2.94 BB/9, 6.72 K/9, GB/FB= 1.34.
The Giants seem to target at least 1 signable HS player in the mid-late single digit rounds each year. So far, that hasn't worked out so well. Stetson Woods seemed to be another bust after 2 lost years following a promising pro debut. Then he showed up in Salem-Keizer as the Volcanoes Opening Day SP and turned in a solid performance at age 22, the same age he might have been expected to be a college draftee. Woods is still listed at his draft weight of 200 lbs, but in videos from last summer he looks just a big more filled out than in his pre-draft videos.
Woods has a big crossover step and long, whippy arm action. He throws a low 90's FB and struggles to command his breaking stuff. 2018 will be a pivotal year as he tries to build on the gains he made in 2017, most likely in Augusta. Oh, and he has at least a 70 name.
