View Draft Report
Coaches and scouts around the Northeast rave about the toughness and advanced feel for pitching of Manhattan lefthander Chris Cody, who won the pitching triple crown in the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference by going 11-2, 1.45 with 98 strikeouts in 99 innings. But Cody, who threw a 10-strikeout shutout against Tulane in the Jaspers' season opener, throws a fastball in the 84-87 mph range that tops out at 88 every once in a while. His best pitch is an above-average changeup, and he has a fringe-average curveball. Cody is polished and commands all of his pitches to both sides of the plate, and his clean delivery is repeatable. Despite his below-average velocity, he figures to be a senior sign early in the second day of the draft.
