球探报告 Scouting grades: Fastball: 65 | Curveball: 60 | Slider: 50 | Changeup: 55 | Control: 50 | Overall: 55 Whitley rocketed from a sub-6-footer with a mid-70s fastball when he entered Alamo Heights High (San Antonio) to 6-foot-7 and low-90s heat by the time he was a sophomore. He has continued to improve, impressing on the showcase circuit and with the U.S. national 18-and-under team last year and pitching better than ever this spring. He has been spectacular in the Texas 5-A state playoffs, striking out 53 and allowing just two unearned runs in 27 innings to earn four wins and pitch the Mules into the semifinals, and he could be the second high school right-hander drafted, behind Kansas' Riley Pint. Whitley has a complete three-pitch arsenal, starting with a 92-97 mph fastball with some cutting action at the lower end of that range and some running life at the upper end. His power curveball tops out in the low 80s with tight spin and good depth, and he'll sometimes turn it into a harder slider. He has upgraded his changeup and used it more this spring, and it drops at the plate and shows flashes of becoming a third plus offering. Scouts also have liked how Whitley has firmed up his large frame, which looked soft at times in 2015. He has good body control for a big kid and does a nice job of repeating a delivery that doesn't feature much effort. There were some initial concerns about the Florida State recruit's signability, but he has pushed himself high enough in the Draft to where it shouldn't be an issue. 个人看法 Forrest Whitley: 一般认为应该会在10~20顺位之间被选走,Riley Pint身体素质虽棒, 但是控球跟投球机制都没Whitley稳,来看看Whitley的身材跟条件 位置: RHP身高: 6尺7寸 体重: 225磅 球种: 能飙到97 mile又有尾劲的火球,Plus 曲球跟平均水准的滑球,控球也不错 为何我看好他呢? 妖怪一样的身材条件,身材高又壮的不像话,一般高中生投手 95%以上姿势都不太固定(Brady Aiken的超棒mechanic根本超级罕见),Whitley除了 Mechanic好,姿势也很稳定,控球不算好,但以高中生来说算不错了 记得前两年的Tyler Kolek吗? 同样身材高壮(6尺5寸,260磅),但Kolek除了球速比 Whitley稍快,无论控球,投球机制,稳定性,Whitley都乐胜 同时有这种身材,控球跟投球机制的投手,实在无法相信他是高中生 从侧面看投球(这已经是去年的影片,但看起来当时已经很猛了) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=18_PE9yvkXI 从本垒板後方看 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=woHidhnb3BQ 从投手後方看,00:39 可以看出他的FB不只快,还会往右打者内角下方钻 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YAc3BU2aigo 而且这家伙还长得帅(影片31秒左右) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oJzkUZZpU14 从身材条件,FB速度与位移,low 80的绝杀slurve,投球机制不错控球OK的高中生, 是不是很像当年的Jose Fernandez呢? 选秀时期Jo Fer的影片 http://0rz.tw/0HiJ3 这只是整个选秀我最喜欢的球员,太空人好好养~ 请证明我的眼光是对的 XD -- 秦仲海 ：加里拉歪歪儿!!!!!!!!!! --
