Cardinals select "flame thrower" from Texas

June 9, 2009 By admin Leave a Comment

The St. Louis Cardinals had the 19th overall pick in the first round of the MLB draft and they selected what many scouts are calling a flame thrower.  His name is Shelby Miller from Brownwood, Texas.

Miller has a fastball that hits the upper 90’s and a pretty good curve ball.  The Cardinals like his size at 6’3 195 pounds, but there is some down side.  He is so-so with his command and hasn’t developed a third pitch yet, but those are all things he can work on in the system if he signs with St. Louis.
