The Book on Jeremy Jeffress
Prospect Info
Jeremy Jeffress
Born 9/21/1987
RHP, MLW
Another good thing/bad thing pitching prospect. Jeffress lights up radar guns with three-figure readings almost every night (that's a good thing), but needs work on his control (bad thing). His 50 game substance abuse suspension last year can be overlooked (marijuana isn't exactly a performance enhancer), but it's tougher to ignore his lack of solid secondary pitches. If the Brewers need a righthander with near triple digits in their bullpen this year, he could see action, but the more conservative minds will want to keep developing his arsenal for a 2011 or 2012 rotation debut.
