[BA] 2. Tyler Skaggs
The Diamondbacks hoped to take Skaggs with the 41st overall pick in 2009, but
the Angels took him one choice earlier and signed him for 1M. Arizona got him
in the Dan Haren trade last July, with Skaggs the key player in a four-pitcher
package that also included Joe Saunders and prospects Pat Corbin and Rafael
Rodriguez. Skaggs has a long, lean athletic body with planty of projection. His
primary weapon is his above-average curveball, Which he throws in the low 70s
and locates where he wants. His curve ranks as the best in the system. He also
commands his 88-92 mph fastball, and could add more velocity as he fills out
his lanky frame. He's refining a changeup that could give him a third plus
pitch down the road. Scouts note his aggressiveness and confidence on the
mound, and they like how he goes about his business. Skaggs profiles as a solid
No.3 starter right now, and he can become a frontline starter if his fastball
and changeup develop as hoped. He's still just 19 and has just 108 innings of
pro experience, so the Diamondbacks won't rush him. He'll likely move through
the minors one level at a time, which put him on schedule to begin 2011 at high
Class A Visalia.
