A tall and solid righthander from Lousiana, Phillies prospect Brody Colvin took a step back in 2011, stumbling hard at high-A Clearwater after easily blowing past low-A Lakewood the year before. He's still very young, of course, and his easy arm action still makes scouts smile, so there's no reason to panic just yet. The heat he generates from such a low-effort delivery is plenty hot: 94 with natural sink, which he complements with a breaking ball that's unusually sharp and reliable for such a young player: it could be a real plus pitch soon. He's a few years away from MLB readiness, but he should still be a good one when he arrives.
