The Tigers Select Rick Porcello In First Round Of Draft
Quote:

Porcello was the top prep pitcher on my draft board. He has the potential to be a front-of-the-rotation pitcher with a few minor tweaks needed in his delivery so he can maximize his stuff. His calling card is a mid-90s fastball with good, late tailing action. He throws two curveballs, and he'll raise his arm slot slightly to get on top of them. His better curveball is thrown at 79-80, and is a sharp downer with a very late break. Porcello is a good athlete who is very quick off the mound.
