    On the U.S. junior national team last summer, Segovia was the most effective pitcher who wasn't headed directly for college. Team USA finished second at the world junior qualifying tournament in Cuba, and Segovia worked eight innings without allowing an earned run, fanning 15. He's always had a large body and is listed at 6-foot-2 and 220 pounds, but he has done a better job of staying in shape this year. He throws up to 93 mph with nice life on his fastball, and he'll flash a plus slider from time to time. His delivery will need a little smoothing out.
