Rays Community Prospect #30 Runoff

With CJ Riefenhauser and Marquis Fleming both having 3 votes, we are headed to another runoff. Also, I would like to point out that the next list will be #30 again since Canzler was traded to the Indians. After that poll, we will head into the fast-paced style.

C.J. Riefenhauser (LHP): A 20th round pick in the 2010 draft, CJ had excellent numbers in a little over 100 innings at Bowling Green. However, reports indicate that he lacks an above-average pitch. (http://www.baseball-reference.com/minors/player.cgi?id=riefen001cha)

Marquis Fleming (RP): One of the Rays best releif prospects, Fleming puts up impressive numbers despite a dull fastball. (http://www.baseball-reference.com/minors/player.cgi?id=flemin001mar)

I can't find anything on Riefenhauser. diamondtom did say this:
C J throws a fast ball, sinker (two-seam fb), slider and a change. He has very good command of all four pitches and mixes them up to keep hitters off balance. His fastball usually sits at 89 and the max on the B.G. scoreboard gun has been 91. He does not have the velocity of Romero or Lara but he knows how to pitch. Just watching him work it appears to me that his fastball is faster than it registers because he mixes his pitches so well.

So I’ll go with Fleming.

Sounds like Sonnanstine

Good results, no great pitch. If he can command his pitches they don’t have to be plus. could be serviceable in the majors.

+1 for Fleming

Tab wouldn’t open on the reply…

joeybw, on why he was banned for half a day:
