Well, that's not good at 172.

 

Loving Fulmer and Stephens. Iffy on Zangari and Erwin.

he is a pitcher, catcher and 1b. mid 90's, fastball. very raw.

Obviously high-school stats but he hit .490/.603/1.163 as a senior

Like this more than erwin.

Oh great, another Jordan Guerrero in pro ball.

And 26 Ks and 25 BBs in 14 innings pitched, haha

Tracker has both pitching and hitting video links for Zangari. Has also played catcher.

Sounds like we drafted Keon Barnum again.

 

if he stays at first.... yeah. he may have been picked for his arm.

Since these guys will be playing soon, I looked...

 

Great Falls starts Thursday, June 18

 

AZ Sox start Saturday, June 20

Zangari's swing reminds of of... Tyler Flowers.

 

mid 90+ on his arm..... i still think there is a great chance for being a pitcher in the future.

I wanted Fulmer all along, but after reading all the post draft fluff, I'm even more tickled.

 

Same. The stuff looks ML ready. No idea if his control needs work or if he's consistent enough, but it looks to me like the only question mark is whether or not his body holds up with that delivery.

#WhiteSox select Corey Zangari...big kid. Had potential as both RHP and 1B. Arm strength as P, raw power as 1B. Long ways to go.

I've watched a ton of his games this year (Vandy seemed to be the Thurs night ESPNU game all season), and I think his command is the biggest area he needs to improve. If he can be consistent with his fastball location (much like Rodon), it will allow him to use his superior offspeed pitch(es) to strike out a lot of hitters.

Big question for me is the control. Last start he had 5 Ks and 5 BBs. In a lot of his highlights hitters were swinging at pitches out of the zone. Keen to see how his walk numbers will look with more patient hitters.
