Daniel Fournier, rhp, Franklin Pierce (N.H.) College
Piercing Talent
Franklin Pierce reached the Division II World Series largely on the strength
of its pitching. But while a couple of crafty seniors carried the Ravens
through the postseason, junior righthander Daniel Fournier and sophomore-
eligible righty Shane Presutti are the intriguing draft prospects. The 6-foot-
4, 210-pound Fournier has a better professional body and more potential, but
he was a little inconsistent this season. He racked up 88 strikeouts in 62
innings with a nasty 76-77 mph curveball that rates as a plus pitch at times.
He struck out 18 batters in a no-hitter against Southern Connecticut State in
late March, but biceps tendinitis slowed him down in the second half and he
struggled in limited work in the postseason. Fournier wears his emotions on
his sleeve, and he ratchets his fastball up from 88-89 mph to 92 mph when he
gets mad.
