The Book on Tanner Scheppers
Prospect Info
Tanner Scheppers
Born 1/17/1987
RHP, FA
A hot prospect before the 2008 draft, Scheppers fell to the Pirates in the second round due to concerns about an unusual (but non-structural) shoulder injury. He's got great upside, so if the shoulder problems are really in the past, he's a heck of a sleeper candidate.
