Player Pos. B-T HT WT High School B’date Jade Todd LHP L-L 6-2 185 Shades Valley 3-22-90 SCOUTING REPORT: There is little consensus among area scouts who cover Alabama who the top high school prospects are beyond Destin Hood and Tyler Stovall,but Todd ranks high enough with a few teams that he is a draft consideration after the 10th round. 在球探眼中Todd一致公认是Alabama地区仅次於Destin Hood跟Tyler Stovall的高中选手 ，是部分球队在10轮之後值得考虑的人选。(这表示我们早选了吗…) He’s a tall, rangy lefthander who made a good impression early in the 2008 season when his fastball was customarily in the 90-91 range. That gave him a third quality pitch as his curve, a 12-to-6 downer when he stays on top of it, is a potential out pitch, and his changeup is a solid offering. The weight of playing on a weak high school team may have taken a toll on Todd later in the season, however, as his velocity dipped to 85-87 mph. —ALLAN SIMPSON 身材高瘦的他在今年球季初给人留下良好印象，当他快速球能够维持在90mph时，搭配12 点钟往六点钟掉的曲球(有浅力成为他的决胜球)跟稳定的变速球让高中打者吃尽苦头。 有浅力成为3-pitch先发投手，高中身处弱队过大的投球量使他在球季後段球速下滑到85 到87 mph，是要注意的地方。 短评：今年选秀第一位高中生，浅力却不是真的这麽高…原本10轮之後身价在第七轮选进 所以美国那边的球迷一致认为这只是safe pick结果果然在第一批签约名单中就有他。 不像去年老虎选择跟一堆难缠的高中生搏斗到签约截止日最後一刻那样的紧张刺激，今年 选入的高中生大概只有18轮Scott Weismann是需花费比较大力气也”一定”要努力签下的 高中生浅力股。 Jade Todd现在有很多时间开发他的实力，论浅力去年三明治的Joey B. Hamilton、第五 轮Casey W. Crosby(左投速球豪腕，可惜冬季动TJ要明年才能看到他。)都在他之上，甚 至第二十六轮Matthew C. Hoffman现在都已经在full season 1a打拼，能不能在老虎新秀 投手中占有一席地位就要看他的努力啦！不然像今年送至马林鱼的Dallas Traherm成为交 易包裹也是可能的选项之一。 周末忙毕典没时间翻 希望这礼拜能把这部分完成~~ --
