Tanner Bushue Pos. HT WT High School Hometown Commitment Birthdate RHP 6-4 180 South Central Kinmundy, Ill. John A. Logan JC 6/20/1991 BA scouting report 　A sprained right knee that didn't require surgery caused Bushue to miss 　most of his junior season and the summer showcase circuit in 2008, 　severely limiting his exposure. Now that he's healthy again, he has 　vaulted past lefthanders Ian Krol (Neuqua Valley HS, Naperville) and 　Jerad Grundy (Johnsburg HS) as the best prep prospect--and perhaps the 　top draft pick--in Illinois this spring. 　 　An all-area basketball player who averaged 18.2 points per game as a 　senior, Bushue is just beginning to realize his potential on the diamond. 　An extremely athletic 6-foot-4, 180-pounder, he repeats his delivery well 　and throws with little effort. That allows him to maintain his 88-90 mph 　fastball into the late innings, and he can reach 93 mph with the promise 　of more to come. Bushue's curveball is a solid-average pitch, though he 　needs to use it more often, and he also messes around with a slider. He 　hasn't made much progress with a changeup, a pitch he'll need to remain 　a starter at higher levels. He has signed with John A. Logan (Ill.) CC 　rather than a four-year school and should be signable in the first 10 　rounds. A team that believes in his upside could pop Bushue as early as 　the fourth round. Heck drafted him at 2nd round! PG scouting report (3/1): 　Bushue, a righthander from Kinmundy, Ill., a small, rural community about 　60 miles east of St. Louis, has been one of the fast risers in the 2009 　high-school class. Few Midwest scouts would be surprised if he completes 　the journey from relative unknown to become the first Illinois player, 　college or high school, to be drafted in June. 　Bushue, who plays third base and hits cleanup for his high-school team 　when not pitching, was slow to emerge as a top prospect as he missed most 　of his junior year because of a knee injury incurred the previous fall. 　He worked in only 16 innings, going just 0-2, 3.85. He also missed most 　of the summer season, but was clearly back in form for his team's 　high-school season in the fall, when he went 6-0, 0.15 and struck out 127 　innings in 48 innings,(！！) while allowing just 11 hits and 23 walks. 　Moreover, he topped South Central with a .389 average, eight homers and 　34 RBIs. Bushue has an extremely smooth and easy arm action, and his 　delivery has been compared to Mark Prior's at the same stage of 　development. The ball leaves his hand effortlessly and scouts say that it 　looks as if Bushue is simply playing catch when he pitches. 　He is still somewhat of a projection at this point, though, as his fastball 　is regularly around 88-90 mph, but will occasionally touch 92-a bit short 　when compared to some of the other high-school righthanders that are being 　given top-round consideration. Bushue does get above-average life on his 　fastball and his low- to mid-70s curveball with hard, late, 12-to-6 action 　also grades out as a potential plus pitch. His changeup is a third pitch 　that has promise. Scouts say that Bushue is a breath of fresh air, a pure 　baseball player with a small-town Midwestern family background who just 　wants to play pro ball, an attribute that will likely benefit him on draft 　day. A commitment to a junior college should also weigh in his favor. 　-DAVID RAWNSLEY / ALLAN SIMPSON 　UPDATE (5/15): 　Bushue separated himself from all other Illinois prospects with his 　consistent performance this spring. He ended the year with an 8-3 record, 　and in 68 innings struck out 140 while walking 21. His velocity even 　climbed a bit late in the spring, always an encouraging sign for a young 　pitcher, and Bushue was sitting at 90-92 mph more frequently in the second 　half of the season. After Bushue threw 99 pitches in a state-tournament 　game, his team was knocked out three days later when it had him throw 73 　more pitches, so scouts were probably relieved his season ended 　prematurely. 　-DR -- 看出来了应该就是这种型的高中投手Heck最爱 有一定水准的速球加上clean, smooth的arm action加上优异的控球 当然要有优异的体格让球速有再上看的空间 去年就是这个因素选了Lyles, 也让他接受了并且鼓吹爷爷要签下Seaton 也许就是这个因素让我们完全没有去接触Purke 他不偏好要修太多投球机制的投手 休士顿乡民的传言指出我们根本连和Purke沟通的动作都没尝试要做.. --
