BA#93
93. Noe Ramirez, rhp
Cal State Fullerton
Ramirez was lightly recruited and undrafted out of Alhambra (Calif.) High in
2008, but he developed into a top-two-rounds candidate during three stellar
seasons at Cal State Fullerton. Ramirez is 29-5 in his Fullerton career, and
his 1.76 ERA this spring is the best of his career. He was slowed by elbow
tenderness earlier this spring, and he missed two weeks with a sprained ankle
later in the season, but he returned strong. Lean and wiry at 6-foot-3, 180
pounds, Ramirez has gotten stronger since high school, increasing his
fastball velocity from the 86-88 mph range to the 88-91 range now, peaking at
92-93 early in games. He generally commands his fastball well, but his
bread-and-butter is his offspeed stuff. Ramirez credits former Fullerton
great Ricky Romero with teaching him his changeup grip, and he throws his
83-84 mph change with the same arm speed as his fastball, and it has
splitter-like action and deception, rating as a plus to plus-plus pitch. His
slider still gets sweepy at times, but it has improved as is now an average
offering. Ramirez is a fearless competitor with outstanding feel for pitching
and one of the best track records in the draft. He has the stuff and makeup
to become a mid- to late-rotation starter in the big leagues.
