10. FERNANDO NIEVE, rhp, Salem Avalance (Astros)
Age: 22 Ht: 6-0 Wt: 195 B-T: R-R Drafted/Signed: Astros FA '99 (Venezuela)
While he doesn’t have the highest readings on radar guns with a fastball in
the 91-95 mph range, Nieve’s heater is the best in the system because it
combines velocity with heavy sink and boring action that rides in on
righthanders. Still, there are questions about Nieve’s strikeout numbers for
someone who’s supposed to be a power pitcher.
“He’s a power pitcher with good stuff, but his fastball has the tendency to
flatten out, making him very hittable,” an AL scout said. “He just needs to
be able to repeat his pitches more consistently.”
