    Moberg comes from a baseball family. His oldest brother, Jeff, is an infielder in the Rockies' system and his other brother, Jack, pitched last year at Palomar (Calif.) JC. Scouts considered Jake the best of the family and watched for him to take a step forward as a senior, but instead Moberg regressed as both a pitcher and position player. On the mound, he dropped from 88-91 mph to 84-86 and at the plate he hit .267 against suspect competition. Scouts are split whether Moberg projects better as a pitcher or position player. As a pitcher, he shows the ability to throw three offerings for strikes from a simple, repeatable delivery. In the field, he projects at third base with soft hands, a strong arm and a clean, compact swing, although his bat speed and power projection are lacking. Moberg is strongly committed to UCLA and expected to end up there after his poor senior season.
