Jake Meyer

Organization Prospect Rankings

• 
  Ranked Seattle Mariners #22 prospect in 2001
  Meyer is already in his third organization after being part of the four-player package that moved Ken Griffey to Cincinnati. Meyer has the kind of stuff that makes it easy to see why teams keep trading for him. He throws a mid-90s fastball, a slider and a splitter, and all three can be average or better. He was limited to 26 games last year by tendinitis, but made up some lost innings over the winter in Venezuela, where he closed for the Lara Cardinals. Meyer could be in the mix for a bullpen job in Seattle in 2001.
