    Broxton looks like a future power closer, though some teams have a hard time getting past his body. He's 6-foot-3 and 260 pounds, is thick throughout his body and looks more like a tight end than a pitcher. If he gets much bigger, Broxton could have trouble repeating his delivery and throwing strikes. He has thrown 90-92 every time out, peaking at 97 mph. He still has plenty of work to do with his slider and changeup.
