Chad Bettis

Bio

School: Texas Tech
Drafted: Available for 2010 draft
Scouting Report: Bettis was drafted in the 8th round in 07 by Houston. He doesn’t have a lot of strikeouts and seems to be very hittable so it is curious what the Astros saw in this young man. Bettis has a fastball in the 91-93 range, so that would explain why he was drafted so high. Right now his heater is straight as an arrow which makes him very hittable. His slider is average and comes in about 85-86.
