    View Draft Report
    Matt Moore emerged as the state's top high school prospect by showing above-average fastball velocity for a lefthander. Moore, whose older brother Bobby is a redshirt sophomore at New Mexico, also signed with the Lobos but has New Mexico Junior College as a backup plan. He's athletic at 6-foot-2, 195 pounds and has arm strength, often pitching in the 89-91 mph range and hitting 92. He's just 17 and needs to add polish to his curveball and changeup.
