    Bucciferro has been a reliable starter for four years at Michigan State, ranking first in Spartans history in starts (54) and innings (367), second in strikeouts (269) and third in wins (26) after the Big Ten Conference tournament. He's somewhat similar to righthander Kurt Wunderlich, a 20th-round pick by the Athletics as a senior last year, but Buccifero has a better body and pitchability. The 6-foot-3, 200-pounder throws strikes with all of his pitches: a fastball with life that operates at 87-88 mph and touches 91, a slider that elicits swings and misses and a changeup that keeps hitters off balance. He'll also mix in a curveball at times.
