(A good read)
Jhan Marinez, RHRP, FLA
Marinez, recently promoted to Jupiter, came on to mop up Sanabia. This 20-year-old has some big-time stuff. His fastball sat 94-96 and was lively. Had a Jekyll and Hyde slider; he throws from a high ¾, so he had a bit of a tendency to get under it, leaving it high and flat. But when he gets on top of it, it's pretty filthy. During warm-ups, he flashed a changeup with strong third-base-side movement, though he didn’t use it in the game. He’s got an athletic body with some filling out left to do.
He’s struggled with control in the past, but not on this day. He struck out 5 in 2.2 IP without allowing a walk, and was simply blowing people away. The delivery is pretty high in terms of effort, but not so jerky or violent that it’s a major injury concern. He’s got closer-caliber stuff for sure. He’s got plenty of time to learn to harness it, and he may even add velocity. He’s definitely one to keep an eye on.
