I really don't know from seeing, but from reading some scouting reports on the internet, baseballamerica, perfectgame, pgcrosschecker, which costs money, it says he has a 4 seam fastball in the low 90s and a sinker/2 seam fastball thats above average in the upper 80s with an above average change up and developing slider. I don't think he would be doing things in college that he did in high school, like you said, tipping pitches or stuff like that.baseball wrote:bball99 wrote:Bollinger pitches with what he has and can throw hard, but has to prove he can do it for more than a couple innings, and Lorenz is 6'8 and has been clocked at 94...all good credentials
Bollinger - because pitching out of the bullpen is absolutley out of the question if he's going to be a pitcher.
Lorenz - what does he have for off speed? I hit off him numerous times in high school and legion and all he really had was a fastball that was straight as an arrow. tipped his off speed pitches alot, digging on the curve, arm speed way slower on a changeup, etc...

Ryan Bollinger Pick 1427 by the Phillies
High school players taken in the first-year draft can still play college baseball if they don’t sign a professional contract. If they don’t sign, however, they must wait until after their junior year of college, or until they are 21 years old, to be drafted again.

main reason he didnt get drafted that high is because he has told teams he is very serious about going to college. This isnt the NHL where if you draft a kid you have the rights to him all the way through college, once he chooses not to to go the minors, the MLB team that chose him just wasted a pick. So what team in their right mind would draft a kid who will go to college no matter what when they can spend a 2nd 3rd of 4th round pick on another great player that will play for them. Bollinger isnt that good compared to the rest of the country so please just stop. please. PLEASE.
