I (15) live in Tampa and my best friend is friends with Lance McCullers. Is he a better hitter or pitcher? I know he wants to hit, not pitch, and is only pitching because his coach wants him too. I also know that he already has his eyes on the draft and is not big on going to college. Hope this helps!
ReplyDeleteMcCullers will find his future on the mound. Fastball sits low-mid 90s and he can touch upper 90s. If pitching doesn't work out for some reason though, his arm would play great from SS!
ReplyDeletejust for peoples info Albert Almora was not even at Tropicana's showcase.
ReplyDeleteJake Drossner could be a top rounder 1-5 in the 2012 draft. hes a 6 3 Left handed pitcher, high 80s low 90s.
