Very athletic, really good fastball, needs to develop more secondary stuff but his offerings show promise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harfman77 Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 QUOTE (oldsox @ Nov 20, 2014 -> 02:29 PM) Leury lives for another day. Waiting for the scouting report on our new lefty...... Garcia is a guy I was hoping they would acquire in a Ramirez trade as a throw in. Another Cuban defector, MLB ranked him as the #17 Dodgers prospect at the end of the season. From MLB: "Used mostly as a reliever in pro ball, Garcia made his big league debut in that role last September. He relies mostly on two pitches: a fastball, which usually arrives at 92-95 mph and seems quicker because he employs a deliberate delivery, and a curveball. Garcia has a hard curve that gets up to 82 mph and elicits swings and misses, and he has a slower mid-70s version that he can get over the plate for strikes. Garcia also has a raw changeup, but the lack of an effective third offering and spotty control make him a better option in the bullpen rather than the rotation. Garcia had bone chips removed from his elbow in November and he was slower to return then expected." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cabiness42 Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 That puts us at 40 and means no Rule 5 pick this year. Can they not still drop someone between now and next week's draft if they see somebody they like available? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the AL, there is room on a team for a guy like Danks who runs well and plays all three OF positions well. Better keeping him as your 4th OF than an actual prospect who needs to be playing every day. Wilkins and Carroll are guys who you can outright because they will likely just stay in the organization anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cabiness42 Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 (edited) I think Shuck is the new Jordan Danks. Well, Shuck has an 82 career OPS+ compared to Danks' 74, but Danks plays all three OF positions well and in a backup OF that's probably more important than being a slightly less s***ty hitter.

I don't know how good he is in CF, but Shuck has played 248 minor league games out there. It'll probably work itself out this offseason.

He's got some pitchability and throws with his left hand. Even if he's just an up and down guy that's worth something. He showed me enough to be given a shot as the second lefty next year. Robin also seemed to like him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He got drafted in 2012, so he probably has one more year on that. Obviously, he has a decent shot of being on the 40-man before next November.
