| Pirates draft LHP Daniel Moskos The Pittsburgh Pirates have drafted Daniel Moskos, a LHP out of Clemson, with the 4th overall pick in the 2007 MLB Draft. According to the Yahoo! Sports staff, "Moved from role as closer for one of nation's top teams to starter midway through this season. Just 3-5 with 2.91 ERA heading into super regionals, Moskos has three potentially dominant pitches: 93-95 mph fastball, wicked slider that hits mid- to upper-80s and a good curve. Really grabbed scouts' attention last summer when he struck out 35 in 21 innings and had six saves as Team USA's closer. Currently projects as No. 3-type starter in pros, but could also end up coming out of bullpen as stopper." So I wonder... will they want to use this in the rotation or out of the pen, possibly as the closer of the future (as Torres and Capps struggle)? |
