Forst:
.....But we were at the point where both players were in demand and the package
we got from the Dodgers, we felt had the best interests of the organization in
mind. We got three pitchers we expect to be a big part of this organization for
a long time to come.
Frankie is having a follow-up scan done this afternoon. He was injured during
spring training, had surgery to have the rib resectioned, rehabbed, came back,
was doing really well, made a few starts as high a Triple A, unfortunately
suffered a set-back with a stress fracture of a second rib. At which point, he
was shut down completely from throwing to let that heal because surgery was
deemed unnecessary. He is having a scan today with the hopes he can begin a
throwing program this week, start a progression to getting back on the mound.
I don’t know if we can say we’re going to see him pitch before the end of the
season. I think looking at Fall League or winter ball, the hope is there’s an
opportunity for him to pitch there. As we went through the medicals …we felt
like the long-term prognosis was good for him to come back and pitch next year
and obviously he’s a special enough talent that we’re willing to be patient.
Grant Holmes we saw extensively as an amateur, we had seen him in the Cal
League, Grady Fuson saw him last week. He was a guy we were focused on in any
conversation with the Dodgers. Only 20 years old on the Cal League with a
starter’s repertoire and a young man with a chance to move quickly and
potentially be in the big leagues at a very young age.
And Jharel Cotton after a slow start because of some lingering things has
pitched very well in a starter’s role at Triple-A and will continue in that
role for us at Nashville. Excellent fastball and one of the best changeups in
the game by all accounts. Hopefully Jharel gets settled in at Nashville and we
get a chance to see him up here before the end of the season.
(Forst on Montas, who throws 100 mph when healthy, as a starter rather than a
reliever:)
We will give him every opportunity to start. We’re obviously aware of the
industry reports and some thinking even when the White Sox traded him to the
Dodgers that he may be a reliever. But this is a special arm and special
talent. He has the ability to have three pitches, if he can command them, with
a fastball, at the velocity he throws, he should be given the opportunity to start. Obviously we’re at square one now with his durability and endurance … but we would like to see him as a starter and
coming into the 2017 season that’s the role we foresee.

The A’s rebuild for the future got officially underway with the deal, with
three of the Dodgers’ top 10 prospects in the Midseason Update joining Oakland
and arguably becoming the top three pitching prospects in the A’s system
immediately.
Grant Holmes, rhp
Age: 20
The 2014 first-round pick ranked No. 60 in the BA Midseason Top 100 after
holding his own in the hitter-friendly Cal League as a 20-year old and came in
at No. 3 in a loaded Dodgers system. The stocky 6-foot-1, 215-pound South
Carolina native features a fastball with late life that can get up to 95 mph,
although scouts believe more velocity may be in there as he improves his
mechanics and smooths out his delivery. He complements his fastball with a
power curve in the 80-83 mph range with improving command and a hard 85-88 mph
changeup that lags a bit behind the other two pitches but shows promise. Holmes
also is mature beyond his years, which shows up in his approach to older
batters in hitter-friendly ballparks, and possesses more athleticism than his
stocky frame might indicate. With the potential for three plus pitches and good
makeup and poise on the mound, Holmes projects as a No. 2 or 3 starter or
possibly a power arm out of the bullpen if his changeup fails to develop.
Frankie Montas, rhp
Age: 23
Montas, ranked No. 82 in BA’s Midseason Top 100, came to the Dodgers from the
White Sox as a key piece of last offseason’s three-team trade involving Todd
Frazier and Trayce Thompson, but injuries have ruined his first season with
Los Angeles. The power-armed 6-foot-2, 255-pound Dominican has pitched only 16
innings this season after having surgery to remove his first right rib in the
offseason and then breaking his second right rib in June. He also had two knee
surgeries in 2014 that limited him to 15 starts. When healthy, Montas reaches
100 mph on his fastball regularly and complements it with a power slider, both
of which helped him strike out 20 batters in 15 innings in his first major
league stint last year. Montas’ size, delivery and lack of a third pitch have
many scouts projecting him as a reliever, with Mets closer Jeurys Familia and
Cubs closer Hector Rondon common player comps.
Jharel Cotton, rhp
Age: 24
The Virgin Islands native was an unheralded 20th-round selection out of East
Carolina in 2012 but blossomed once he got into pro ball, upping his fastball
velocity to 96 mph while featuring a double-plus changeup and quickly climbing
the Dodgers system and prospect rankings. Cotton sits more often in the 92-93
range with his fastball and is able to manipulate the ball to add different
types of movements, making it run, sink, or cut at different times. His
fastball command and changeup and slider development are still works in
progress, but he was still selected to the Futures Game this year as one of the
top pitching prospects in baseball. He is athletic delivery and quality of
stuff overcomes his smaller 5-foot-11, 190-pound frame, allowing him to
project as a No. 3 or 4 starter or potential closer thanks to the change.
