Scouting Report: O’Sullivan has been one of the elite players for his age
since Baseball America recognized him as the nation’s best 12-year-old in
2000. Unfortunately, he picked the wrong year to have a slump. Projected at
the start of the year to be the first high school pitcher drafted, O’
Sullivan instead has taken a step back. Before regaining velocity down the
stretch, he was one of this year’s biggest mysteries. His velocity had not
only fallen off significantly early in the season, but he also delivered his
pitches with more effort, without the free and easy arm action he had shown
in the past. Where his fastball had been a steady 93 mph, it was more
commonly in the 86-88 range this year, while occasionally touching 90. His
hammer curve, an effective pitch in the past, also hasn’t been as crisp. He
was a big disappointment to a throng of more than 50 scouts who came to see
him in April at the National Classic, the nation’s premier high school
tournament. Many left after an inning or two. O’Sullivan’s problems
prompted myriad explanations, from his use of sometimes-controversial Tom
House as a pitching instructor, to bulking up too much in his upper body,
particularly in his shoulders. He could also be pressing, but didn’t
outwardly show it to scouts. The 6-foot-2, 215-pound O’Sullivan has always
been a physically mature player for his age, and scouts were wondering if he
might have peaked. But he was back up over 90 in mid-May and some of the
apprehension had subsided. O’Sullivan is also a talented hitter and actually
enjoys hitting more than pitching. He led California high schools in home
runs in 2004, with 16, and was San Diego’s high school player of the year—
ahead of Matt Bush, the No. 1 pick overall in the draft. He has not swung the
bat as well this spring, either. Because he has not performed particularly
well, has limited projection and had high expectations coming into the year
and may be unwilling to sign for lower-round money, teams weren't sure where
to place O'Sullivan on their draft boards. He likely will still be drafted in
the first couple of rounds because of his track record of success. If not,
there’s a chance he could slide right out of the early rounds--and possibly
out of the draft altogether--and end up at San Diego State, where he would
play both ways.
