11/29: Ian Kennedy - #26
Posted by: James
IPK joins Austin Jackson on the MiLB.com's Top 50 prospects list, coming in at number 26.
I'm going to assume that the writer mixed up his thoughts there. Still, nice placement for IPK though I am surprised about another player, Jose Tabata. Unless he's in the top 10, which I really can't see happening, Tabata looks like he won't even make this list...which makes little sense to me considering that Fernando Martinez is ranked 17th.
The MiLB.com Overall Starting Pitcher of the Year pitched at three levels on his way to the big leagues. He won't light up radar guns like Chamberlain, instead relying on outstanding command of four pitches to get hitters out. He did show that despite the plus fastball, he could miss more than enough bats to succeed.
