Tuesday afternoon notes

John Sickels has up some high school pitchers to be on the look for in the 2011 Draft. We may be drafting in the late first round this year, but man, there appears to be no shortage on good arms available this season between the high school and college crop.

Alex Eisenberg over at Baseball-Intellect.com has up his Reds Top 15 prospects now. His 1-5 guys can be found here and today, he posted guys 6-15. Drew Cisco at #10 jumps out to me still. Don’t get me wrong, I think Cisco is a fine prospect, but his upside isn’t huge and he has yet to pitch. I just would like to see more from him before ranking him ahead of guys who I think can be starting MLB players who have time in the minors. He has a sale going on for his subscription service. While he does cover all of the minors, making Reds coverage a little sparse, when he does get into the Reds (and he generally will do several AAA pieces with game video each season) it is well worth the price. Last season he did 6 Reds prospect related breakdowns outside of his Top prospects lists.

I don’t know how I missed it, but I didn’t find out about it until yesterday morning. The Carolina Mudcats are streaming their games through all smart phones now with the TuneIn radio app. I downloaded it yesterday for my Droid and it was awesome. It is also free, which makes it even better.

I am still working on getting up some more video on youtube where thanks mostly to you guys, my channel has over 70,000 views, but I am almost done. I think I have a pitcher or two left and then David Vidal to add before I am done. So follow me on twitter to find out exactly when they go up, or wait until tomorrow afternoon and I will post the new videos on a page here. Subscribers to the Scouting Database, same goes for you.

Time to get back to editing video before the Bats double header starts at 6:00pm.

That is all for now.
