Get a load of the scouting report on No. 21, Jake Godfrey. Apologies if I am repeating something.
Godfrey's future has changed significantly since the start of the season. He entered the year as the consensus top prospect in the state of Illinois, a possible pick in the top three rounds who likely would be signed away from his commitment to Notre Dame. But he has regressed this spring, leaving his Draft status more uncertain, and he'll now attend Louisiana State if he goes to college. On the showcase circuit before his senior season, Godfrey showed the makings of three plus pitches. He worked at 89-93 mph with good angle on his fastball, threw a true downer curveball in the upper 70s and exhibited nice fade on his changeup. He also made strides with his ability to locate his pitches on both sides of the plate. Godfrey hasn't looked like the same guy as a senior, however. He'll still touch 93 mph, but he doesn't hold his velocity or command his fastball, which also has lacked life. His secondary pitches haven't been as sharp, and he has relied too much on his curve at times.
