    John Curtiss, RHP, Southlake Carroll HS: The 6-foot-4 ace consistently throws 90-91 mph, with a nice slider and changeup. He went 7-0 with a 0.91 ERA and 73 strikeouts over 53 2/3 innings in 2011

    Skyler Ewing, C/INF, Arlington HS: He finished his high school career with consecutive double-digit homer seasons, belting 12 as a junior and 10 as a senior. The Rice signee hit .443 with 33 RBIs and a .987 slugging percentage this year.

    Are those Reds picks or were they who you hope for?

    I wonder what the average height of our pitching picks this year have been. Seems like a lot of them are well over 6 feet.

    3 DBP grads drafted in the past 4 years by Cincy. Big ups.

    AS A JUNIOR (2011)
    Started four games and appeared in five before injuring his elbow ... underwent Tommy John surgery in April ... finished 1-2 with a 5.89 ERA in 18.1 innings ... allowed 14 runs - 12 earned - on 18 hits while walking eight and fanning 11 ... started at Florida (2/24) and went 3.0 innings, allowing an unearned run on one hit while striking out two ... picked up his only win of the season at Bethune-Cookman (3/4) after allowing four runs in 6.0 innings ... pitched 4.1 innings at Florida State (3/11) before the elbow injury sidelined him.

    Drafted in 17th rd out of HS. Numbers look awful at BC, however.

    BA says he was a top 5 rounder prior to the surgery and is now likely headed back to school.

    Michael Dennhart might be the type of pick to go over slot for. If he was projected a top 5 rounder before the injury? What does anyone think?

    I love my Ironmen, so I hope so. TJ doesn't scare me as much as it used to.
