    THT Draft Review

    THT has the third draft article up and includes a breakdown on both Jacob Odorizzi and Evan Frederickson:

     http://www.hardballtimes.com/main/article/breaking-down-the-draft-picks-27-35/

    "Let me add that I love pitchers who are also athletes, and that picture fits Odorizzi, who was also a highly recruited wide receiver in high school. Why are athletes better? Because they can take the pounding that is associated with pitching better than a non-athlete can. Also, athletes have an easier time making needed mechanical adjustments. Odorizzi combines his athleticism with a wiry frame that he should be able to add weight to.

    Given the combination of athleticism, three potentially average or better pitches and good command, Odorizzi gives the Brewers excellent value at No. 32."

    The Brewers have done a great job. I hope the scouts did their jobs because the front office did; they signed 25 of the top 26 picks and all of their top 22 picks! Great job!
