A year after finding Ron Chiavacci in the 44th round, the Expos scored there again with Ferrari. Montreal crosschecker Scott Goldby was impressed with him after watching him win the championship game in the 2000 NAIA World Series. Ferrari has had plenty of success as a pro, earning postseason all-star recognition in the Florida State League in 2001. He throws much harder than the typical 5-foot-9 lefthander, pitching down in the zone with a 92-94 mph two-seam fastball. He also has an 81-83 mph slider and an 80-81 mph changeup. Ferrari has a jerky, unconventional delivery, which causes his release point to be inconsistent at times. He'll try to keep defying the odds at Harrisburg in 2002.
