View Draft Report
Wesely was a fixture on last summer's showcase circuit but was overshadowed by this draft's crop of prep lefthanders. He pitched well in the World Wood Bat Championships in Jupiter, Fla., last fall, but scouts haven't been overwhelmed this spring. While Wesely shows flashes of a four-pitch mix, including a fastball that gets as high as 93 mph and a decent curveball, many scouts still project him as a reliever because of a funky, high-maintenance delivery, below-average command and questionable toughness. Teams will probably be content to see what he looks like after three years at UCLA.
