Did you see Tejada pitch?? The reason I ask is b/c I saw a clip of him and I’m not sure if he was using a “quick pitch” or he has a Ryan Johsnon(DBU) type wind-up.

Here’s the Clevari Tejada clip that I’m very confused about.

And I know he was a former infielder turned pitcher so that very well could be his mechanics and why he is doing fairly well(by throwing off hitters timing)

I've seen him 3-4 times this year and that's not the motion I've seen.

If you ever seen Ryan Johnson from DBU that clip of Clevari Tejada just looked very similar to what he does.

But that’s Johnson’s windup all the time. It’s like a slow windup then all of a sudden, quick pitch. And it’s pretty much a straight quick pitch from the stretch.

Here’s a Ryan Johnson clip and you can see his windup and stretch mechanics and see how he has that delivery all the time.

Well if this organization is ever going to take a big step forward, one, or preferably more, of these international guys need to become Top 10, Top 5 prospects, and preferably one of them would begin to challenge for our top spot, if not now, in a year or two. I am cautiously optimistic this may actually happen with this group.

Blanco at the plate looks a bit like another big guy, J.J. Davis. (No jinx)

At one game, there was a guy shooting videos and he wanted to get Blanco, except he was having trouble getting all of Blanco in the frame at once.
