This week we will continue our look back at the 2010 season by taking a look at the pitching leaders of each affiliate. Today we will focus on the pitching stats of the Durham Bulls.
On his best nights, he features a 91-96 mph fastball and a power curveball that both rate as 70s on the 20-80 scouting scale. That combination allowed Moore to strike out 208 batters in 145 innings, more whiffs than any minor league pitcher since Clint Nageotte had 214 eight years ago.Joe Cruz also made it, at #15:
At his best, he has a fastball that touches 95-96 mph and works down in the zone with the kind of downward plane that leaves hitters helpless. But in the next inning, he might have an 86-88 mph fastball. His velocity varies so much because he has a rough delivery with a long arm action and a wrap in the back.In the Southern League, Alex Torres was #12:
Torres strides across his body and catapults over his front side, creating plus life on his low-90s fastball. Managers rated his changeup the best in the league, and he sells it well with good arm speed. His curveball is a plus pitch when he's on.And Alex Cobb was #19:
Cobb's fastball sits in the low 90s with occasional sink. His main trouble is fastball command, because he sometimes to get too cute with locating the pitch. His most reliable pitch is his above-average changeup, while he's still refining both of his breaking balls, a high-70s curveball that's a plus pitch at times and a low-80s slider with average tilt.
This week we will continue our look back at the 2010 season by taking a look at the pitching leaders of each affiliate. Today we will focus on the pitching stats of the Montgomery Biscuits.

Thompson often flashed a plus changeup in college, and it was on display this summer as well, though it tends to be too firm. While his slider was inconsistent at Long Beach, he developed more confidence and feel for the pitch, which reached the upper 80s at Hudson Valley. With his durable frame and loose arm, he could become a frontline starter if his secondary stuff and command continue to progress like they did this summer.In the Midwest League, Alex Colome was the lone Rays representative, checking it at #16:
Colome's best pitch is a 91-93 mph fastball that tops out at 96 and features armside run and sink. His 11-to-5 curveball has tight spin and qualifies as a plus pitch at its best. His changeup is a solid third offering that helped him limit lefthanders to a .199 average.The remaining schedule of top 20 lists:
