Drafted in the 9th round (280th overall) by the Atlanta Braves in 2008 (signed for $150,000).
View Draft Report
Western Nevada's top draft prospect, righthander Kyle Farrell, has one potential plus pitch with his spike curveball that he throws with some power and improved command. He throws strikes with a clean arm action and repeats his delivery. His fastball sits in the 87-91 mph range, and he has a physical, projectable frame that should allow him to add velocity. Farrell didn't dominate the wood-bat Scenic West Athletic Conference as someone with his stuff should have. He's just a freshman and could be back for his sophomore season if he's not a high pick.
