Gerrit Cole's former HS teammate, possessor of a 94 MPH fastball and a devastating slider.  He's 20 and making an interesting showing in the league right now as well (3+ K:BB, 10.7 K/9, couple of shaky command games but basically unhittable).  He's a prospect.
Shipers and some other teens are still coming in short-season next month.  Young arms we're doing okay with, for now.  Paxton is the only one with a decent chance to move fast, though.  We're laying the groundwork for the 2015 rotation at the moment in the low minors.  I find several of the guys interesting, now I just pray for health and success.
