Scouting Report: Baseball America's reigning Summer Player of the Year, Minor vaulted into first-round consideration with a dominant performance for USA Baseball's college national team, including two victories against Cuba. BA本届的年度夏季球员(应该是指去年夏天?)，凭藉着他在美国大学国家队主宰性的 表现，包括对古巴的两场胜投，使Minor的身价上涨，成为第一轮的热门人选。 Minor could be the third lefthander drafted in the first round out of Vanderbilt in the last six years, and he's more Jeremy Sowers than David Price. Like Sowers, Minor has more pitchability than stuff, with a fastball in the 86-89 mph range and a plus changeup that grades as his best pitch. His other strongest attribute could be his pickoff move, a weapon he broke out repeatedly against Cuba last summer. Minor's future may depend on his breaking stuff. Minor可能会是Vanderbilt大学在近六年内第三个在第一轮被选中的左投，而比起David Price，他更接近Jeremy Sowers。如同Sowers，Minor解读比赛的投球能力胜於他的整体 球威，快速球约在86-89mph的范围，且有颗plus的变速球被视为他的最佳武器。他另一个 强项可能是他的牵制动作，在去年夏天面对古巴时，重复地让他们措手不及的一样武器， 而Minor的未来性得取决於他的变化球种发展。 He formerly threw a slider as his primary breaking ball, and at times it was an above-average pitch with depth. He showed he could throw the pitch for strikes or bury it. Minor added a solid curveball this fall and threw four pitches for strikes this spring, but some scouts think the curve has sapped some of the life off the rest of his offerings. 他之前都丢滑球作为他的主要变化球种，且在当时是颗高於平均并带着落差幅度的球种， 他展现出能够把滑球丢进好球袋也能做为吊球的能耐。Minor在去年秋天增加了一颗不错 的曲球，今年春天也已能把四种球路都丢进好球袋，但某些球探认为他的曲球在送球过程 的最尾段时，球路的威力已经减弱。 Vanderbilt's catching problems—at one point they used a fourth-string catcher due to injuries—also limited Minor's repertoire, making him hesitant to throw his breaking balls as chase pitches. Minor will be all over draft boards in June,and could go anywhere from the first half of the first round to the back half of the second. Vanderbilt大学的捕手在某段期间内也出现了问题，因为伤兵，使得他们启用到第四线的 捕手，也限制了Minor的投球技能，使得他在丢变化球种作为决胜球上产生犹豫。Minor将 会在六月的选秀上成为注目焦点，而他最後的落点，可能会座落在第一轮前段到第二轮末 段之间。 --
