Overall: One of the many players who came out of the lost season looking different than we last saw him, Cody Poteet now reps a major league average fastball, at least per velo. The 26 year old averages 93.9 mph instead of the fringe-average offering from the past and it's done a good job of playing up in the zone with good arm-side run that masks its lack of rise. He rounds out his arsenal with two high-spin breakers in the slider and curveball, the former of which he uses almost exclusively with RHB. He then tackles LHB primarily with FB/CH. It's a straightforward windup that has some effort at release and he's done a good job with command despite the long arm action. He's shown flashes of being a backend rotation piece, which is a major success already for someone who was headed toward an org depth label.
