Santurce selects Jeremy Hellickson in the 5th round
Santurce selects RHP Jeremy Hellickson in the 5th round. This pitcher was drafted in the 4th round by Tampa Bay. He dropped to fourth because clubs worried about his commitment to pitch in College for Louisiana State. Hellickson is only 19 years old and brings comparisons to a young pitcher from Missisippi, Roy Oswalt. His fastball goes from 91-95 MPH with plus movement. Has a power curveball that goes 74-78 MPH and can throw the change up.
GM Vega believes that Hellickson is a round 1 talent taken in the 5th round.
