He was 44th on my Rule 5 Preference List last December.

44    Cole Sulser - Indians - RHP

92-94, average command, two solid offspeed pitches, change 80-83 and slider with depth about the same velo. Works up and down well. Fastball would get mashed if left on the plate. Misses a lot of bats in AAA but I don’t know if there is enough stuff to repeat the trick in MLB.

Sulser is a high spin rate fastball guy who works well up in the zone but has an inconsistent slider that doesn't have enough velocity separation from his fastball (6.7 MPH separation) . Looks similar to Evan Phillips but with a fastball that plays better because of the spin rate.
