Default and a cautionary pitcher's tale from a casual prospector,

Quote:
BLAST FROM THE PAST

Marlins LHP Andrew Miller is lost. The 2006 first-round pick is 2-9, 5.35 overall in 21 starts; ranks sixth in the minors with 76 walks in just 101 innings; and is getting hammered by Double-A hitters, with an 0-3, 8.84 mark with Jacksonville this month.
I remember when his cards were hot.

Each week, BA chooses ceiling over actual performance when compiling the list.

Until this week, when choosing #s 1-3.

lol they still cannot spell Blake Beavan's name correctly. A couple of his trading cards have it wrong, articles have it wrong all the time.

No. 1 ADAM WARREN, RHP
YANKEES

Team: Double-A Trenton (Eastern)
Age: 22
Why He's Here: 1-0, 0.00, 1 GS, 7 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 1 HBP, 1 BB, 15 SO, 1.0 G/F
The Scoop: Among Eastern League pitchers, only Harrisburg's Tommy Milone (50) has more strikeouts than does Warren (44) since the latter joined the league on July 16. But Warren is gaining fast. Including his seven-inning, 15-strikeout gem against Bowie on Wednesday, he now has notched a 28-to-4 strikeout-to-walk ratio in his past three starts, covering 17 innings.

I was at that game - he was dealing. I never thought he would be as good as he has been, but so far for Trenton he has looked really good.

I am really excited to see where Warren and Ivan Nova come out... I would love to actually see some home grown (Hughes) starters in the rotation in coming years... also it's been a while since the Yankees have had such good minor league talent on the pitching staff (Hughes and Chamberlain have really been about it for the last couple of years)

Nice to see Justin Wilson up there. Kid has pitched pretty well this year and looks to be a serious contender for a rotation spot in late 2011 or 2012.
