Biographical Data
Player Name: Mike Minor
Position: Starting Pitcher
School: Vanderbilt University
School Type: College
Academic Class: Junior
Birthdate: 12/26/87
Height: 6'4"
Weight: 195 lbs.
Bats: Right

Report Date(s): 3/27/09
Fastball: Minor can touch 92 mph, maybe 93, but sits comfortably in the 89-91
mph range.
Fastball
movement: There's a little life at the bottom of the zone. Working off the
first-base side of the rubber, he can run it in to right-handed
hitters.
Slider: The better of his two breaking pitches, with tighter spin, better
break and harder bite.
Curve: It's his fourth pitch, more of a show pitch right now.
Changeup: It's a quality pitch, but he doesn't use it enough.
Control: His command has improved as the season's gone on, as his innings
have increased. The better he commands the ball, especially his
secondary stuff, the better he is.
Poise: He's got pretty good mound presence and does a good job of staying
within himself.
Physical
Description: Minor is a large-framed guy, with some room to add some weight,
with a broad chest and tapered waist.
Medical Update: He didn't throw at all in the fall, mostly because of a heavy
summer workload, though there was some buzz about a tender
elbow. He's been healthy this year.
Strengths: He's got a good feel for pitching, with at least three usuable
pitches.
Weaknesses: What you see is pretty much what you're going to get. He's not
going to throw any harder and his secondary stuff will more or
less stay where it is.
Summary: Minor isn't going to wow you, like his former Vandy teammate David
Price did, but he's a solid left-handed starting candidate at the next
level. He's got a good feel for pitching with at least three pitches
that, when he's locked in, he can throw for strikes. He seemed to be
getting sharper as the season wore on and was positioning himself to
be one of those college lefties who knows how to pitch who always go
well on Draft day.
