[情報] BP Colorado Rockies Top 11 Prospects
System In 20 Words Or Less: It's a well-rounded, solid system. The only two
weaknesses are a lack of up-the-middle talent and health issues.
Five-Star Prospects
1. Tyler Matzek, LHP
2. Wilin Rosario, C
Three-Star Prospects
3. Nolan Arenado, 3B
4. Christian Friedrich, LHP
5. Kyle Parker, OF
6. Peter Tago, RHP
7. Charles Blackmon, OF
8. Rex Brothers, LHP
9. Chad Bettis, RHP
Two-Star Prospects
10. Christhian Adames, SS
11. Rafael Ortega, OF
Nine More:
12. Will Swanner, C: The Rockies paid almost a half-million dollars for this
15th-round pick, but he's gifted with power and defensive tools.
13. Juan Nicasio, RHP: A highly polished righty, Nicasio has solid stuff and
excellent command.
14. Jordan Pacheco, C: This converted infielder can really hit, but the
Rockies hope his defense comes around.
15. Albert Campos, RHP: Campos is a beefy Venezuelan teenager who drew some
Carlos Zambrano comps while playing for Casper.
16. Casey Weathers, LHP: This former first-rounder still throws hard after
Tommy John surgery, but hasn't thrown enough strikes.
17. Russell Wilson, 2B: A phenomenal athlete, the problem is that Wilson's
commitment to baseball is questionable, as he may return to QB for North
Carolina State.
18. Hector Gomez, SS: Gomez is a toolsy, high-ceiling shortstop, but is one
who has played just 111 games in the last three years.
19. Mike McKenry, C: He didn't hit at Triple-A as well as scouts expected him
to, but he still has big-league potential.
20. Chris Nelson, SS/2B: Colorado Springs makes Nelson look better than he
is, but he still has a future role as a utilityman.
1. Tyler Matzek, LHP
DOB: 10/19/90
Height/Weight: 6-3/210
Bats/Throws: L/L
Drafted/Signed: First round, 2009, Capistrano Valley HS (CA)
2010 Stats: 2.92 ERA (89.1-62-62-88) at Low-A (18 G)
Best/Worst Tool: Fastball/control
Year in Review: A high-profile first-round pick, Matzek struggled on a
numbers level, but scouts remained very impressed.
The Good: Matzek is a strong, highly athletic pitcher who flashes three plus
offerings when everything is working. His fastball got up as high as 95 mph
in 2010, and his power curveball has heavy, late bite, giving him a
swing-and-miss offering. His changeup is advanced for his age, with depth and
fade, and he's an intense competitor.
The Bad: To call Matzek inconsistent doesn't do the word justice, as his
stuff varied heavily from outing to outing. One scout noted starts where
Matzek rarely topped 90 mph, and others where he rarely dropped below that
mark. His command and control are below average, and he seemed frequently
frustrated on the mound, which led to overthrowing and a loss of
effectiveness.
Ephemera: Capistrano Valley High's most famous (or infamous) alum is former
NFL quarterback/lesson-to-all Todd Marinovich.
Perfect World Projection: He would be an upper-tier starter.
Fantasy Impact: Star-level starters are always quite valuable, no?
Path to the Big Leagues: Matzek will begin 2011 at High-A Modesto. With more
consistency, he could take off.
