2) Kyle Davies: 93 pitches. 13 strikes swinging. 2 Fastballs (2nd, 3rd), 6 Changeups (3 in 1st, 3 in 3rd), 4 Curveballs (2 in 2nd, 4th, 6th), Cutter (6th)

• Davies is a 6-2, 220 pound righty. The 25 year old has a medium frame that is maxed out. He came from an over the top release. His fastball has a little run in on righties, but is fairly straight. His curve is a 12-6 offering with average depth and flashes above average depth. His change has some fade from lefties that he will throw to righties and it looks like a fastball out of his hand. His cutter has some cut. He falls behind constantly due to lack of fastball command and causes him to fall into predictable counts. Has the stuff of a # 3 starter, but needs to develop his fastball command greatly.
