Drafted Player comments from Tigers minor league guru Mark Anderson;
Josh Turley (LHP) - FB 87-89, plus to plus-plus CH, CT and CB are workable, can flat out pitch.
Slade Smith (RHP) - FB 89-91 w/ plus sink, SL isn't tight and needs work, durable guy, lacks upside.
Dylan LaVelle (3B) - Potential to hit for average and power, plus arm at third, Oregon State commit that could cost.
Will Clinard (RHP) - Big, physical kid, relief profile, FB 90-92, 55 SL w/ horizontal movement.
Logan Ehlers (LHP) - Nice lefty w/ 55 FB w/ three-pitch mix, over slot guy, highlighted as one of best avail. at BPN.
Alex Phillips (LHP) - Big lefty reliever, durable, may get more Velocity out of him w/ work.
DJ Driggers (OF) - Good body, has strength, power potential, tons of swing and miss.
Drew Harrison (RHP) - Big guy, fresh, untested arm, shows average FB, kind of a blank canvas.
Nick Carmichael (RHP) - Huge, 6-6, 220, reliever profile, he's a project that they'll tinker with.
Jared Reaves (SS) - Can play all over, smallish, contact hitter, works counts, "pesky" according to one scout.
Rashad Brown (OF) - Burner w/ CF profile, good athlete, needs to figure out how to hit and add strength.
Miguel Paulino (OF) - Live, athletic body, not a burner, but can run some, gap power, still raw.
Josh Carr (RHP) - Friday starter, good size, flashes decent stuff, slim chance to coax more out.
Zach Kirksey (OF) - Slugger type, thick body, poor defender, LF only, lots of swing and miss.
Preston Jamison (LHP) - Another big boy, 6-6, 220, FB up to 88, bit of a project.
Connor Harrell (OF) - Plus runner, very good size, CF profile w/ pop in bat, tons and tons of swing and miss.
Blake McFadden(RHP) - Projectable righty that needs to firm body, FB up to 90 now w/ projection for more, needs college.
Tyler Hanover (2B) - Experienced guy, very small, plays hard, grinder, filling a short-season roster.
Jacob Kapstein (C) - Really strong arm, solid athleticism, moves well, surprising wheels for backstop, bat must develop.
Clate Schmidt (RHP) - FB 88-96 and up to 97, Fringy CB, may have CH, committed to Clemson, tough sign, smaller guy.
Charlie Neil (C) - Switch hitter, announced as C, has arm strength, decent athlete, lacks offensive profile.
Alex Minter (LHP) - Knows how to pitch, A&M signee, good body but not ideal, struck 119 in 59.2 innings as senior.
John Sansone (SS) - Decent frame, good athlete, not a SS long term, good bloodlines, going to FSU.
Ryan Longstreth (LHP) - Local kid, nothing that stands out but he competes and mixes pitches well, solid low-level arm.
