He's headed JUCO also...draft and follow might make sense. Who knows, he could add a few mph on the fastball and become a steal.

Reds round 50:

That is the last pick for the Reds 2006 draft.

Re: 2006 Official MLB Draft Thread (Day 2)

P/3B Blake Benveniste (R/R, 6-2, 185) - Uncommitted as far as I am aware

Good athletic build, has some decent two-way skills. Looks like a pitcher, showed decent stuff that will have to improve (JC ball would be great for him). FB was 83-85 and he has a 73-75 slurvy breaking ball. Offensively he showed a good swing and some power potential. Likely would get a chance as a two-way guy at JC level, but arm works enough on the mound to figure he is going to develop into an 87-90 type guy in a couple of years.

Re: 2006 Official MLB Draft Thread (Day 2)

Blake Benveniste is the last player chosen for the Reds.

He's Mr. Irrelevant, 2006 for the Reds.

Chaminade Prep HS (CA). 3B 6'2 195 R/R

Thanks again for all of your input on this draft.

I think this was a tremendous success as far as our coverage here on Redszone.

Seems like he has potential...I like these "projectable" types towards the end of the draft.
