Jenkins made the 10 that just missed list by Klaw today.

Tyrell Jenkins, RHP
Atlanta Braves
Age: 23 | Top level: Triple-A

Jenkins has power stuff, showing two plus pitches on his best nights, and is an outstanding athlete who repeats his delivery really well. But under my general theory that a starting pitcher has to do two of three things -- miss bats, avoid walks, keep the ball on the ground -- Jenkins is still one checkmark short; he gets a lot of ground balls, but either has to tighten up his control or start to miss more bats, probably with his breaking ball, to reach his mid-rotation starter ceiling.

Lazarito news

quote:

The agent for Cuban outfielder Lazaro Armenteros, Charles Hairston, said Friday that his client is not close to a decision.
Joel Sherman of the New York Post reported previously that a decision from "Lazarito" was expected Thursday or Friday of this week, but obviously that's not going to happen. Hairston noted that new teams are in the mix for Armenteros, which could be the reason for the delay. "For a 16 year-old, it’s easy to want to just play ball," Hairston said. "But he wants to do what’s best for his family. He’s being very mature." Hairston offered no hint at a potential timetable for his client's decision. The Padres, Braves, Cubs, Dodgers and Phillies are among the clubs known to have interest.
