The Book on Jameson Taillon
Prospect Info
Jameson Taillon
Born 11/18/1991
RHP, PIT
A monster power arm from Texas via Quebec, young Jameson Taillon is a very high-ceiling righthander who has already cracked 100mph on many radar guns. If that's not enough to get your attention, note that while his slider and change are below average, his curveball has also been rated a plus pitch. If he can hold his arm together under increasing workloads and develop his command and control to pro levels, he could be a viable #2 or #3 starter by 2015 or so, with a shot at being a genuine ace somewhere down the road.
