Chart Observations: 9/13 KC @ CLE

1) Carlos Carrasco: 79 pitches. (FB, CU, CB, SL). 7 strikes swinging. 4 Curveballs, 2 Fastballs, Changeup.

• Carrasco is a 6-3, 215 pound righty. The 22 year old has a medium frame that appears to be maxed out, though he may be able to add a little more muscle to his lower body. He came from a high 3/4 release with a classic drop and drive delivery with pretty clean mechanics. His fastball has some run in on righties and a little sink. His change has some fade from lefties and a little sink that he will throw to righties. His curve is a 12-6 offering with above average depth. He should still be a solid starter, but likely more of an innings eater # 4 then a # 3.

• Gosling came from an over the top release and showed a fastball with good run in on lefties, a 11-5 slider with good bite, a big breaking 11-5 curve with above average depth and a change with some fade from righties and some sink.

4) Roman Colon: 30 pitches. (FB, SL, Split). 4 strikes swinging. 3 Fastballs, Slider.

• Colon came from an over the top release and showed a pretty straight 4-seam fastball, a big breaking 2-7 slider with above average bite that can resemble a curveball and a splitter with a little dive.

7th: FB (93-95), SL (78-82) - 3 FB

5) Rafael Perez: 8 pitches. (FB, SL, CU). 1 strike swinging. Slider.

• Perez came from a high 3/4 release and showed a 11-5 slider with solid bite and a fastball with a little cutting action.

8th: FB (93), SL (84-86) - SL

6) Kerry Wood: 26 pitches. (FB, Cut, CB, SL). 3 strikes swinging. 2 Fastballs, Cutter.

• Wood came from an over the top release and showed a fastball with a little run in on righties and a little sink, a cutter with some cut and a sharp 12-6 curve with above average depth.

9th: FB (93-97), Cut (90-91), CB (77-79) - 2 FB, Cut

7) Carlos Rosa: 11 pitches. (FB, SL, CU). 0 strikes swinging.

• Rosa is a 6-1, 210 pound righty. The 24 year old has a medium frame that can add a little more muscle to his lower body, but not much. He came from an over the top release with a long arm action that puts extra stress on his shoulder. Also has some cocking action. His fastball is a pretty straight 4-seam. His slider is a 2-7 with solid bite. Looks like he could be a strong middle reliever with an outside shot of being a late inning guy.

9th: FB (94-96), SL (88)
