[情報] BA Northwest League Top 20 Prospects
以下是我們家入選的...
5. Fabio Castillo, rhp, Spokane Indians (Rangers)
B-T: R-R Ht: 6-3 Wt: 220 Age: 18 Signed: Rangers FA '05
Spokane had the league's best collection of pitchers, and Castillo has the most
upside. He has a durable frame and an easy delivery, producing fastballs that
sit at 92-93 mph with heavy sink and occasional boring action. His breaking
ball is a hard, short-breaking slider that parks at 83 mph and peaks at 86.
Castillo's changeup is a rudimentary third pitch. He has below-average command
because he doesn't repeat his delivery and tends to fly open, causing his elbow
to drag and his stuff to flatten out. But his arm works well and there were few
NWL arms who could match the life on his fastball.
"He was the best guy they had," said the second AL scout of Castillo's stock
among Spokane's stable of arms. "His fastball was solid with plus-plus life,
and he was a real (tough guy to face). And he was around the plate with
surprising feel for an 18-year-old to locate."

7. Tommy Hunter, rhp, Spokane Indians (Rangers)
B-T: R-R Ht: 6-4 Wt: 250 Age: 21 Drafted: Rangers '07 (1S)
At 6-foot-4 and 250 pounds, Hunter doesn't look like much a prospect, but he
has two plus pitches and solid command. A two-time junior Olympic champion in
judo, he also has much more athleticism than his figure suggests.
Hunter has a low-90s fastball, and though Spokane used him judiciously as a
reliever, he showed the ability to maintain his velocity late into outings as
a starter in college. His curveball comes in at 82-84 and at times has power
and hard, tight spin. He tends to get around it, causing it to flatten out,
but it has put-away potential.
"His curveball is what sets him apart. It's one of the best in the league with
good angle and depth," Spokane manager Tim Hullet said.

20. Jake Brigham, rhp, Spokane Indians (Rangers)
B-T: B-R Ht: 6-3 Wt: 195 Age: 19 Drafted: Rangers '06 (6)
Brigham has the components necessary to be a middle-of-the-rotation starter.
He has a durable, athletic build and a clean, simple delivery that he can
repeat. His fastball ranges from 90-94 mph and it jumps on hitters thanks to
some deception in his delivery. He holds his velocity deep into games.
He doesn't have tremendous arm speed, so Brigham will have to improve his
command in order to achieve his ceiling. His breaking ball shows plus break
with three-quarters tilt, though it's inconsistent. He'll mix in a cutter
against lefthanders and has rudimentary feel for his changeup.
