3rd Round - Mike Wright - RHP - East Carolina University

Sinker/slider guy who could be a starter but could move quickly as a reliever..

[MurphDogg]

Sounds like a guy who should be a reliever.

Manuel says he might start or be a power set-up guy. Up to 96 MPH.

[LookinUp]

Power stuff?

[Edit: Thanks Murph.]

Mayo said he could move quick as a reliever, might take a while as a SP. Should be interesting to see how this one shapes up.

Manuel of BA on twitter

"Know more on RHP Mike Wright, #Orioles 3rd rounder, tall, lanky, I saw up to 96 vs. Anthony Rendon, might start, could be power setup guy"

[Sports Guy]

His college stats weren't that impressive.

Looks like he should go to the pen.

BA pre-draft 187. Good frame. BA projected as sixth rounder, but said prospect could go higher if a team thought he could start.

I am hoping this is the beginning of a push to have a farm system fully capable of replenishing the bullpen. Then again I said the same thing last year after they picked Klein.

Can't find him on any prospect lists, which I know only go to 100 usually - And we picked #94, so it may be hard to tell. But was this a reach?

Can you share that link? I'm having problems finding it for some stupid reason. Thanks.

I've watched him pitch for 3 years at ECU. Good pick!!!

2.79, 6-4 16 16 100.0 81 37 31 30 75 .224

Overall not too bad. None of the videos I've found show his stuff but he does fall off the mound a bit. I'm guessing Jordan thinks he can start..

If he has a power arm and good stuff, I would like to see more K's in college.
