2014-07-22 15:00:00 (link to chat)Have you had a chance to see Aaron Slegers (MIN) and what are your thoughts?
(maxthom91 from New York)
Haven't seen him as a pro, but did in college. Was a preferred walk on at IU (oh, hey, me too). Threw high 70's. They worked with him, and well, the rest is history.

He's a REALLY big dude. Command/control is his game, and that's tough when you're almost 7 feet tall. A lot of moving parts. He doesn't have swing and miss stuff, and it's a project that's going to take time, but he's got ingredients to be a back of the rotation innings eater; but it may take awhile. (Jordan Gorosh)
