[農場] 2011 MLB.com's Top 50 Prospects: No. …
Jeremy Hellickson, RHP
2010 Rank: 20
Drafted: 2005, 4th (118)
ETA in Majors: 2011
Statistically speaking:
Don't expect the right-hander to hurt himself with walks. His 2.8 BB/9 ratio
in 2010 was actually a career worst for the 2005 fourth-round pick.
Over the course of his Minor League career, Hellickson has allowed just 2.1
walks per nine innings. At the same time, he's struck out 9.8 per nine,
with a full-season high of 10.4 in 2009.
Scouting report:
He's got stuff plus command, which bodes well for his future.
He can touch the mid-90s with his fastball, which he keeps down in the zone,
and his changeup is a plus pitch to go along with it. He can throw his curve
for strikes and has even added a cutter to his arsenal. He's fearless on
the mound and goes right after hitters.
Upside potential:
The trade of Matt Garza creates an opening in the Rays' rotation for
Hellickson right out of the gates. He might start in the back end of
the rotation, but he could be a splendid No. 2 behind David Price
before long.
They said it: "He knows how to pitch, that's for sure. He's got really good
command of his pitches. He knows where each one of them is going. That's one
of the main differences between the Minor Leagues and the Major Leagues."."
-- Rays starter James Shields
He said it: "I think I was more nervous warming up [before the game],"
Hellickson said. "Once I walked out there and saw the fans, and they started
cheering ... I tried to take it like any other game after that first pitch. I
just went after that first-pitch strike." -- on his Major League debut
