Texas Rangers "Nolan Ryan Minor League Pitcher of the Year" Alejandro Rosario....
Top 25 coaches are just getting more and more ammo.
If Herick or Raef get the right adjustments they will be the next ones....and in just 2 starts Herick looked improved.

I stood atop the mountain almost alone saying how good this kid could be with just a few adjustment on grips, arm slot, pitch design.
Big year for him. He could potentially be a September call up if they start him at AA and he keeps progressing like he has; teams seem to be more inclined to get the best up sooner since for many there are only so many bullets in the chamber. Not everyone can pitch until they are 35-40.
AA is a big jump. Its the best prospects. But I always like to see younger arms at AAA facing a lot of guys who have been in the league. You put up numbers there it can often be a good omen for your future.

BIGGEST RISER AMONG CURRENT TOP 100 PROSPECTS
Callis: Alejandro Rosario, RHP (TEX No. 3/MLB No. 86)
"I think this guy’s flown under the radar a little bit because he was handled with care and didn’t have a big prospect pedigree. We talked about Kristian Campbell, who was our Breakout Prospect of the Year and Minor League Hitter of the year. He wasn’t even on the Red Sox's Top 30 coming into this season. Alejandro Rosario was kinda the pitching equivalent of that. He wasn’t on our Rangers Top 30 coming into the year – he just missed. He was in Jonathan’s neck of the draft going back to high school, and then he went to Miami and he was terrible for three years with Miami. 6.53 ERA. He had stuff. There were no results. So he went in the fifth round ... The Rangers worked with him on his delivery to keep him closed longer and hide the ball better from hitters. He already had some natural deception with his low release height. Those changes helped him throw more strikes. They switched his pitch mix a little bit … all of a sudden, he has three plus pitches … he’s throwing more strikes … he had a 2.24 ERA and a 10-1 strikeout-to-walk ratio. If he stays healthy and keeps doing this at upper levels, he has a chance to shoot up this list."
