The Book on Michael Inoa
Prospect Info
Michael Inoa
Born 9/24/1991
RHP, OAK
Inoa, the child of two accomplished ballplayers, is a towering, flame throwing teenager who already has a mid-90s fastball and an advanced changeup. He's several years away from breaking into big-league ball, but if he can stay healthy, he'll be something special come 2012 or so. The only question is how the A's will manage to squeeze all their hot young talent into the rotation in time for their 2013 championship run.
