Scouting Report: 5th Round Pick Colin Poche, LHP, Marcus HS (TX)

Published by Jordan Tuwiner on June 5, 2012
Colin Poche

There is some projection with good foundation for his sinker and curve.

Don’s Thoughts: When I saw him last fall he was a real projectable, loose arm, with nice size to him. He was mainly 87-89 mph and was touching 90.

Reports indicate that he added a bit of weight and will touch low 90s this spring.  There is some projection with good foundation for his sinker and curve.

This is a cop out, but really accurate: he is a guy that makes you think Zach Britton when it is all said and done.  He will be a tough sign to pull away from the University of Arkansas.

With Poche it is not what he brings right now, but what he can be 3/4 years down the road when the 6’3″ pitcher could be 210 to 215.

Scouting Report:

  • projectable LHP
  • committed to Arkansas
