Jonn was livid about not drafting Trea Turner, lol.

 

I'm glad you remember.

Baseball America says TJ Zeuch's FB sits 92-94 and "shows both sink and arm-side run, making it an effective ground ball-inducing pitch."

There's nothing wrong with that when you're tall. Wainwright, Halladay, McCarthy are all in that mold and all are good, or were good pitchers. For Zeuch it'll be his breaking pitches.

[jays4life19]

Zeuch established himself as a prospect to follow with a strong freshman campaign, and then he develop into the ace of Pitt’s staff as a sophomore. He missed the beginning of this spring with a groin injury, but got off to a strong start when he did take the mound. Zeuch’s best pitch is his fastball, which sits at 92-94 and sometimes touches higher. Zeuch’s extra large, 6-foot-7 frame allows him to generate solid extension towards home plate, making his pitches even more difficult for hitters to pick up out of his hand. His fastball also shows both sink and arm-side run, making it an effective ground ball-inducing pitch. His offspeed pitches, a slider and changeup, receive fringe-average grades from scouts, but he has solid command of his arsenal and repeats his delivery well. The development of his offspeed pitches will dictate his ultimate ceiling.

T.J. Zeuch, RHP, University of Pittsburgh: He's 6-7, has a plus fastball but mixes it with a potentially solid curve, slider, and change-up; he posted a 3.10 ERA in 10 starts with a 74/19 K/BB in 70 innings; he can be inconsistent but can develop into a mid-rotation starter or a power bullpen arm. - John Sickels

What's his W-L record though?? That's the first thing you should look at when you evaluate a pitcher.

[King]

Zeuch starts in Vancouver?

I'll have to assume King has already welcomed him. If he doesn't beat Matt Harvey he's fired.

 

Zeuch was amazing in this ACC Tourney game against Duke. I have my goduke.com account I can give King access to it and maybe he can capture some of the video from it (I have no idea if he has ability to do that but f*** him if he doesn't)
