I attended the Brooklyn Cyclones vs. Staten Island Yankees game on July the 12th and despite putting up a great record and being in first place I saw more negatives prospect wise with the Cyclones than positives.
Mark Cohoon, who at the time was leading the league in wins and strikeouts, had his worst outing to date and did not look good at all. He has some deception in his delivery, which is the likely cause for all his success at the lower levels. He has a fringe fastball sitting 85-89 with some movement I believe he hit the 90′s only once coming in at 91 in the first inning.

The only effective B-Met pitcher was Roy Merritt who pitched 2 scoreless innings striking out 2 batters. Continue reading →
