Rnd: 5
Player: Daniel Griffin
Position: rhp
School: Niagara U.
Scouting Report:
Some scouts say 6-foot-7, 225-pound sophomore RHP Dan Griffin will be the
first Niagara pitcher drafted, ahead of James Avery. Griffin has a higher
ceiling, but is nowhere near as polished--even though he made strides this
spring. Griffin was so gangly and unrefined that he redshirted as a freshman
and went 1-7, 9.55 with 27 walks and 26 strikeouts in 33 innings as a
sophomore. But this year, he went 6-4, 4.37 while walking only 30 and
striking out 120 strikeouts in 78 innings—one of the best ratios in the
country. His fastball was 82-83 mph when he enrolled in school, but with
improved mechanics now registers 90-94, and he complements it with a power
curveball. His changeup needs a lot of work, and his command remains
problematic.
