June 15, 200916 yr FS Draft Profile: Kyle Bellamy, RHP, University of Miami By Danny Santaromita Bellamy’s success is a result of good movement on his pitches and deception from his delivery. His fastball can get up to 90, but sits more in the 88-89 range, and has a lot of sink. Lefties have struggled with his frisbee slider, but it will likely need improvement if he is going to be more than a righty specialist. His drop in control this year is a concern, but if he can improve that it seems like Bellamy should be a quick riser in the minors.

June 15, 200916 yr Author I wasn't a fan of this pick initially but if he has good movement and a deceptive delivery he might be a guy that can move up and make a big impact out of our pen early on. I prefer the high upside arms but this might turn into a nice move. We'll see though cause you could make a case that he's quite similar to a one of the Sox top picks of a year ago, Drew O'Neil, who has struggled a bit.
