Patrick Schuster- Mr. No-No

[Lefty0315]

What the scoop on the no-hit kid Patrick Schuster down in Florida. BA had at no. 79 in the preseason rankings. His numbers are incredible.

Schuster’s season numbers are almost Nintendo-like. He’s now thrown 55 innings, struck out 110, walked 24, allowed nine hits and is sitting pretty with a 8-0, 0.64 record. The most recent no-no gave him five on the season. The first was in the season opener.

Haven't been able to find good video of him, just news bite video . . . which is troublesome. He was considered a 3-6 rd guy is he was signable and a teens guy if his commitment to the Gators was viewed as ironclad. I imagine he would listen to money. Thing is with the no hitters, scouts are paying heavy attention to him on a hot streak and his value will rise . . . maybe more than it should. From the little I can see . . . his arm action needs a good deal of cleaning up.

It looks like PG posted some video, too. I don't know how good it is, though. I can't view it here at work.

EDIT: Oh boy, that was my 500th post! I guess now I have to decide whether or not to become a plus member or not.

Spend the money! Help that cause! Besides it really not that much cash;)

Terrible mechanics.

Mediocre competition.

High injury risk.

Solid committment to college.

No previous high schooler with 3 consecutive no-hitters ever amounted to anything. Sure, he was BA # 78 high schooler coming into this year, but I wouldn't spend higher than a 4th round pick.

Wow...I'm no expert on mechanics, but this kid looks like an injury waiting to happen.

Yea I live in NPR Fl and this kid is a cousin of a guy I work with. The family is looking college first.

This is hilarious. What does that prove?

He's a gator. So I wish him all the worst.

Oh yeah. Major hyperabduction and timing problems. This guy probably won't last as a starter.
