Chart Observations: 9/10 FLA @ NYM

1) Bobby Parnell: 104 pitches. (FB, SL, CU). 11 strikes swinging. 8 Sliders, 3 Fastballs.
  • Parnell came from a high 3/4 release and showed a fastball with a little run in on righties and a little sink, a change with some fade from lefties and some sink that he will throw 2-0 even though he can't throw it for strikes and a sharp 2-7 slider with slightly above average bite. Bottom line with Parnell is this, he can't throw strikes. His fastball control is average, but his command is below average. Both his change and slider can only be thrown as out pitches right now (i.e. bounced) and he also spikes more fastballs then any big league pitcher I have seen. He needs to be developing this repetoire in AAA.

1st: FB (92-96), SL (85-89), CU (89) - 2 FB, 2 SL

2nd: FB (91-95), CU (87)

3rd: FB (91-95), SL (86-87), CU (88) - 3 SL

5th: FB (93-97), SL (84-88), CU (87) - 2 SL

2) Sean West: 82 pitches. (FB, SL, CU). 6 strikes swinging. 3 Fastballs, 3 Sliders.

  • West came from a high 3/4 release and showed a fastball with a little run in on lefties, a change with good fade from righties and some sink and a 11-5 slider with good bite. He will throw 3-2 sliders and changeups.

1st: FB (91-94), SL (83), CU (83-87)

2nd: FB (91-93), SL (80-84), CU (85-86) - FB, 2 SL

3) Burke Badenhop: 23 pitches. (FB, SL, CU). 2 strikes swinging. 2 Changeups.

  • Badenhop came from a 3/4 release and showed a fastball with good run in on righties and good sink, a change with good fade from lefties and good sink and a sweeping 3-8 slider with okay bite.

5th: FB (88-90), SL (79-82), CU (82)

6th: FB (87-89), CU (80-83) - 2 CU

4) Tobi Stoner: 15 pitches. (FB, SL, CU, CB, Split). 2 strikes swinging. Fastball, Slider.

  • Stoner is a 6-2, 215 pound righty. The 24 year old has a medium frame that appears to be maxed out. He has a somewhat thick, athletic lower half. He came from an over the top release. He has a classic drop and drive delivery that appears to be pretty clean. His fastball has some run in on righties and some sink. His change has good fade from lefties and solid sink that he will throw to righties. His split has good diving action and appears to be an occasional out pitch for him. His slider is a 2-7 offering with solid bite that he will throw 2-0. His curve is a slow, big breaking 12-6 with above average depth. Would like to see him in a start, as I think he is a better fit as a starter with his command and his vast array of offerings.

6th: FB (87-90), SL (81-82), CU (75-77), CB (67), Split (71) - FB, SL

5) Sean Green: 17 pitches. (FB, CB, CU). 3 strikes swinging. 3 Fastballs.

7th: FB (86-88), Cut (82), SL (74-76)

7) Brian Stokes: 6 pitches. (FB, CB, CU). 1 strike swinging. Fastball

  • Stokes came from a high 3/4 release and showed a fastball with some run in on righties and a 1-7 curve with average depth that can look like a slider.

7th: FB (94-95), CB (80-81) - FB
