8. J.D. DURBIN, rhp, New Britain Rock Cats (Twins) Age: 22 Ht: 6-0 Wt: 190 B-T: R-R Drafted/Signed: Twins '00 (4) W L ERA G SV IP H HR BB SO AVG 4 1 2.52 13 0 64.1 62 4 22 53 .251 Durbin had minor surgery on his right shoulder in May but rebounded nicely, returning from a six-week layoff without losing much zip on his best pitch: a lively mid-90s fastball. Durbin’s delivery has never been free and easy, and at 6 feet, some scouts wonder if the labrum shaving this year was an indication of more arm problems in his future. His performance following the procedure suggests he is healthy, as he touched 97 mph and allowed two earned runs or fewer in seven starts following the surgery, then joined Triple-A Rochester. As always, he pitched with tenacity and has a good mound presence. Durbin also made strides with his changeup this year, as he looks for a reliable second offspeed offering to complement his 87-88 mph slurvy breaking ball. --
