Age:20 B-T:L-L Ht.:6-1 Wt.:160
Drafted:Dominican Republic, 2001
Signed by:Robinson Garcia.
Background:
Cedeno came to the United States in 2002 and amde a huge impression in
instructional league, where he blew away Minnesota's Joe Mauer in two
seperate at-bats. In his first full season last year, he had a 10.29 ERA
in April and a 2.48 mark afterwar. He allowed three or fewer earned in 18
of his last 19 outing.
Strength:
Cedeno has the best fastball in the system. He sat at 92-93 mph and touched
95 last summer, and reportedly hit 97 this winter in Dominica League. He
physically resembles countryman Pedro Martinez with a small thin body, big
hands and very quick arm. He spins his curveball well and it could give him
a second plus pitch. He's fiercely competitive and comfident.
Weakness:
He needs to understand that less can be more. Cedeno is enthralled with his
fastball and overthrow it. He tries to hit 100 mph when Red Sox want him
to be content at 92-93 mphwith more strike and life. His changeup lags
behind his heater and curve.
The future:
Cedeno's velocity, approach and stuff may fit better in the bullpen in the
long term. He'll remain in the rotation this year in high Class A.
