Drew Pomeranz

Bio

School: Ole Miss
Drafted: 5th overall pick in 2010 by the Cleveland Indians
Scouting Report: Pomeranz is a big-bodied lefty with solid stuff across the board and two legitimate swing-and-miss pitches.  He generally sits 92-89 mph with his fastball that he can throw to both sides of the plate.  His curve is his best offering and when he's on, he comes with good depth and tight break at 79-77mph.  He can mix-in an upper-70s changeup, which he throws with decent arm speed.  Not surprising for a big man, Pomeranz can struggle to get all of the pieces of his motion working together, leading to inconsistent command of his offerings and, more broadly, bouts of wildness.  His arm action can get long in the back, though he does an adequate job of hiding the ball with his body and utilizes a windmill-like release, giving him good downward plane on his fastball and a nice angle on his curve, particularly against lefties.  He can miss bats and when he's in a groove, mechanically, he has some of the best stuff in the 2010 draft class. - www.draftamerica.com
