The Book on Alex Colome
Prospect Info
Alex Colome
Born 12/31/1988
RHP, TB
A righthanded pitcher from San Pedro de Macoris, DR (his parents must have missed the shortstop delivery truck came by), Alexander Colome is a right-handed pitcher in the Rays system. He zipped onto the prospect radar last year after going 7-4 with a scintillating 1.66 ERA in fifteen starts for low-A Hudson Valley in the NY-Penn League, enough to land him the league MVP award. The definition of 'raw stuff', Colome out 94 and walked 32 in only 74 innings of work, working almost exclusively with his high-90's fastball. His second pitch is a power curve he's still learning to control, but even if he only half-masters it, he could see time in an MLB uniform before his 22nd birthday.
