The post Minor League Scores – 9/5/12 appeared first on Orioles-Nation.

Clayton Schrader

He is a power pitcher with a heavy fastball that ranges 93-96 mph with nice movement and good deception. Clayton flashes a nasty slider with 10/5 tilt, showing solid bite. The pitch gets a bit too much spin and has a life of its own at times. He takes a little off and reaches back with everything, so the slight little deception keeps hitters honest; his angle and quirks in the delivery make it tough to pick up at times. He has a stand tall delivery and leaves the ball riding high at times. His next step is continuing to extend the follow through and allow the ball to sit lower in the zone. His pitches are ready and he has a good enough two pitch combination to sit in the 7th or 8th inning right now. He simply needs to work to improve his control and command. If he can refine the release point and work downhill, he could be a name in the cards for the Orioles in 2013.

Mike Belfiore

Mike is a LHP with the slot and stuff that should be able to get out both sides of the plate, but really tough on left handed hitters. His fastball is from a higher 3/4 slot and really dances in on the hands with late lateral action glove side. He sits mainly 90-92 mph, but can rear back hitting 93-94 mph with a little less movement and feel to locate. The slider works well as a sweep pitch against the lefties, and he tends to back door it to the right handed guys. I would like to see him use that above average offering to work the right side of the plate a bit better. His change up is good enough to play and should be used as another offering that could continue to wreak havoc with left handed hitters. His next hurdle is to tighten the command of the fastball and change up, as he can get out of synchronization and the result is a bit flat and a touch north of where I think the Orioles want to see it. At worst, he could be a solid LOOGY next season, but a touch improvement in the offering and location could see him be a solid inning eater out of the bullpen, expanding his versatility to the parent club.

Mike Wright

I touched on Mike Wright earlier this season (Scouting Report) and his arsenal has taken a huge step in the right direction. I think the slider will be a solid swing and miss offering, just he is deemphasizing the offering to build upon his change up and improving the command on the fastball. I saw the curve progression in his first full season of using the pitch. It has moments where it flashes, but re-enforcement of the offering must continue to show the plus potential down the road. His arsenal and command are pretty much set,  although both can always show marked improvements as no one is perfect. I think the biggest hurdle is consistency. I think continuing to blend efficiency and knockout ability will allow him to have an easier workload for 6/7 innings. I do feel he has No. 2 – No. 3 type of potential and is transitioning into a pitcher. This fall will be a good test for him, as there are a handful of solid hitters on each team. It is a chance to increase his workload against some of the best competition he has seen to date.

Brian Ward

I have touched several times about his above average ability behind the dish. He has the makeup to be a sound defensive backstop; I rarely run across a pitcher that fails to say a bad thing about how he calls a game. His setup and footwork is sound and his adjustments make life easy on a pitcher. He has a solid transition and quick release to consistently pop 1.79 – 1.82, which is something to hold your hat on as a catcher. After watching him a few times this summer, his timing is just slightly off, his numbers should be a bit better. He is seeing the ball well, but that 50 game suspension put him behind the development 8-ball this summer. He has a decent stick and enough so to be a serviceable backup catcher. This is the area of the game where any improvements will help his chances being considered for the Orioles. If he can simply maintain serviceable contact, he has the surprising pop that could help it play up. He is set as the Taxi Squad player, limiting his game action, but being at the park everyday and working on his craft can only help seeing the time he missed this spring. He is subjected to the rule 5 and a solid fall showing to a new set of eyes could get him claimed as a backup catcher option for many teams, as teams can always use catchers and pitchers finding them under every rock.

Jonathan Schoop

The kid simply has power in bunches. It comes off in a hurry, routinely displaying over 100 mph off the bat, which easily rates 6/7. His arm is one of the best in the system. I once watched him take a relay with the runner 3/4 to third base and still shoot a frozen rope beating him by two steps. The arm grades out to a clean 7. He has been aggressively pushed by the Orioles and is always one of the youngest hitters in his league. This aggression has constantly placed him against a better class of pitchers, who have improved command and secondary offerings. Jon has seen ups and downs, riding hot hands at times. It is not a question of bat speed for his contact, it is plate awareness and pitch recognition. He is getting fed a heaping dose of change ups from right handed hitters and there is a hole in the swing that will have to be ironed out. He also can get a bit pull happy, leaving him susceptible to low/away. He has that power, and there is no reason to think his contact can’t at least be average. I think it can be better. He must use this time to work on staying back; he is a dead fastball hitter with good barrel awareness at times, but he must improve his ability to ride with the offerings and go with the pitch. The extra work and extra at bat against a solid class of pitching should continue to allow his offensive game to blossom.

L.J. Hoes

Having touched on Hoes earlier in the week, I will simply say that he has improved his contact a great deal over the last two years. Clearly it has the ability to be above average, with the natural fast twitch ability to push plus. He is a jack of all trades defender that needs to improve his craft in LF. This is a bit of a litmus test for Hoes in October. He is on the edge of the 40 man roster and the Orioles could be on the fence about adding him. He could display some surprising power in Arizona because the ball jumps off the bats in some of those stadiums in the fall. Either way, he has to build on his baseline skill set and show the Orioles they should add him into their long term plans. I think he could have a surprising eye popping showcase. If the Orioles do not add him, there will be a few teams that will and these few weeks will solidify that statement.

Chris Petrini

Chris is a guy that has had his share of problems staying healthy. In 2007 he had a UCL tear that required Tommy John Surgery and in 2010 he tore a ligament in his foot. Ultimately, it left him as an UDFA and a pitcher that has always sat under the radar. Two years removed from any injury and he has shed a good deal of weight. He has a solid two mix pitch with a upper 80s fastball that can sneak north from time to time, but has a good deal of movement hand side that makes it tough for left handed hitters to square up. He can get right-handed hitters chasing at times. He has a nice bread and butter change up that ranges upper 70s,  and even flashes lower readings at times. The pitch shows solid deception playing well of the FB,  and has good fade that plays up well off the lateral moving FB. He has a curve in his pocket, but it is not really a factor on a major league level than just a show me grade. What I really like is that he is strictly about balance, and takes a bit off here and there. He works well at setting hitters up, allowing the fringe arsenal play up. He is getting some great exposure, and you never know if he could factor as a LOOGY in some way down the road.

Legit 6’5″ and started to fill out a bit more; looks a bit more muscular in the lower half and upper portion of the thighs, as he filled out slightly more in the upper torso.  Presently looks about 195-200 pounds, may fill out a bit more as his frame could easily handle 220 pounds.

Mechanically

Mike Wright is a bit more fluid to the plate than in previous encounters.  The pre-load in the arm is not something that I subscribe to at the moment, but nothing that I would now say is a red flag in his delivery.  His arc and break are clean, but he rears back a bit more than I prefer.

Mike Wright pitching in the GCL.

They have done a good job of speeding up that aspect of the delivery so that he is in a safe and clean path at toe touch, and his arm slot is in a safe point to transition through the zone with minimum effort and impact towards the joints.

His stride should be a tick or two longer from my views as he is too upright, standing too tall for my tastes.  It is a bit longer than last season, with a more consistent landing, albeit the landing can be stiff.  It would be best to see that consistent knee bend, but this is something that looks better than previous encounters.

His follow through should be a bit more athletic and he still stands upright too much for me. I would prefer a better hip bend and for him to come down the line a bit more.  The arm action on the follow though just leaves me pausing a bit — bringing it through and slapping it against the thigh can jar the shoulder, and anything that can do it could lead to problems down the line.

Overall I see a better load, transition to the plate, and follow through that has sped up, and been a bit more fluid this season, but more can be done to iron out some of the wrinkles.  I think more could be done to clean up down the line, and it could only help improve and preserve him to handle the rigors of starting pitching.

Fastball

The added strength and weight has really pushed this pitch to another level.  He currently sits 93-95 mph as a starter, and can dial up, with my eyes seeing 97 mph.

The speed starts out early and he should be able to maintain it the third time through the order.  The ball hides well and shows a decent amount of deception, and with the speed it has some pure getty up.  The 4S has some good boring action and he can locate the pitch well in the lower half of the zone, and mixes the location well.

There will be a hand full of times where he has an early release and the ball sails, but for the most part the command has taken a step for the better.  His 2S has some late tail and he can keep it low and away for strikes.  The pitch runs mainly 91-92 mph and shows a decent amount of horizontal movement, laced with a bit of vertical drop.  This pitch should continue to be a tough offering to square up.

Grade: 7

Slider

This offering is being de-emphasized and suppressed in sporadic fashion at the moment.  In his limited offerings, it displays that plus ability that has been a constant in his repertoire.

His slider runs mainly 87-89 mph, and the higher the speed the crisper the rotation, showing the two plane bite.  It is a tight swing/miss offering at this stage, and its action and his ability to keep it down help the pitch play up.  It has just enough movement to force a flailing swing, and gives him two quality pitches at his disposal.

Grade: 6

Change Up

This pitch is being flashed from time to time and there has been some progress.  At its best, it has a decent amount of fade, with more vertical than horizontal movement, but two way.

The pitch runs mainly 81-83 mph and he does a solid job locating the pitch.  It can still flash the grooved offering and sit in the wheelhouse, but the progression is at least playing well off the power pitches and is giving him an offering that flashed MLB quality.  His ability to locate and keep the hitter honest allows his fastball to play up better. He has shown solid development of this offering.

Grade: 4 (5)

Curve

A new professional offering that he has brought back to the table.  It mainly sits 75-79 mph with good rotation and solid depth.

Wright’s curve sits 75-79 mph with good rotation and solid depth.

The pitch has to be properly developed, but I liked the shape and path so much that with time this could be another knock out pitch in his pocket.  He has the strength, lead elbow, and the man paws to get that pitch to bite.  It has the foundation right now and the development of this offering could take him into another category.

Grade: 4 (6)

Command

This is maybe the biggest step forward that I have seen from him.  He has really worked hard to command the lower half and he is starting to make it routine.  He has his over power lapses, but shows the ability to command both halves of the plate and ride the pitches low.

It is not superb, but for a power pitcher it is great to see a 92 mph 2S and an 82 mph change up worked in the same location and he can hit his spots.  Wright must continue to limit the early release from rearing its head, but overall it is sound improvement.

Grade: 5 (6)

Control

He has rather good control for a guy that can touch the upper 90s.  He does a solid job throwing strikes and nibbling the edges.  Mike tends to gain too much action with the 2S and SL and these two pitches have a life of their own from time to time.

Biting sliders may stretch the zone on some professional hitters, but a good deal have the patience to lay off.  I do not think this is a road block or hiccup, but if there is any improvements this is where I would start.  The curve ball shows flashes, but this pitch has to be controlled a bit better to round out the offering.

Grade: 5 (6)

Overall

Wright is a power pitcher that shows a blend of swing/miss stuff and some of the traits to be an efficient ground ball pitcher.  He has done a solid job attacking hitters early and keeping the ball on the ground.  He attacks hitters and keeps them on their toes with an effective mix that should continue to progress slightly.

The ability to command and locate pitches has taken a large stride, making him a solid prospect to sit in the upper portions of a rotation.  He has taken the strides from turning from a thrower into a pitcher and is a real national dark horse player to watch.  I want to see a bit more progress of that third pitch, but the additional curve has promise to give him a quality arsenal.  He is not only a part of a group of stable arms recently by the Orioles, but he has the chance to be a major player in the rotation within the next year or two.
