HIGH FIVE!!! VERY NICE!!!

There is a kid I saw on opening night for the Myrtle Beach Pelicans who gave me a chubby. I even told my better half, we will see this guy called up farm system quick, and hopefully to the show. I forgot his name maybe you can help JOE? He is a LHP, looked very young, about 6'6 though, from the Carribeans I believe. He came in the game in relief during a tie game in the 4th and pitch through extras (about 7 innings strong) Hit about 91-92 consistently, live arm, and had good off-speed pitches. Who is this diamond in the rough? and I think he might need to crack the top ten?

Carlos Sencion LHP for AA Mississippi now, 6'6 170, a bean pole. He did get up there quick. Has the size, make up and the stuff of a potential star LHP. Good BB/K ratio as well for 23. Watch out for this guy. He's legit!!!

I did a little research on the Sencion kid. 6'6", nice! Lefty, nice! 18 starts and 37 relief appearances over 3+ years in the minors... strange! His numbers are pretty solid, but you don't see too many 6'6" "bean poles" coming in during the middle innings (I say middle and not late as he has only 1 career save). Start the kid, stretch his innings and see what he's got! Until then, it's hard to put a middle reliever in the top 10. The minors consist of a starting 5 and a closer - the rest are filling in and waiting for 1 of those 6 to get hurt. Pro

Whats good Nellie and Double R. Just wanted to give a shout out to #9 on the list, Ryne Reynoso. He's a former BC Eagles teammate of mine. Hes got a fastball that touches the HIGH 90's and is very raw, but a great athlete. Talk to you guys soon. Former GSU Catcher #11 G. Greer.
