LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2005 Pre Draft Showcase  
RHP Cody Burns (Glendale, AZ): Burns might have been feeling the short term effects from a long and busy spring. He was 10-1 with 4 shutouts and 110 K’s, with a 0.96 ERA this high school season. Burns was 85-88 mph for 2 innings in Cedar Rapids with a 77 mph change up and a 73 mph curveball that had good tilt. He knows how to pitch and mix his pitches and throws quality strikes. We’ve been told he was 89-91, top 93, much of the spring and that’s what we’ve seen in the past as well. Cory can really pitch and has committed to the U of Arizona. He could create serious draft interest, but he might be worth a small fortune after a good career at Arizona.
