“Projection, strike-thrower, velocity ceiling,” said Jeremy Booth, CEO and president of the Future Stars Series. “There’s a guy that’s a little bit different, but not much, that we took with Milwaukee, who’s named Jorge Lopez. He was from Puerto Rico, and we took him in the second round. (Rodriguez) has a chance to have that starter profile in the next four or five years, but that’ll be up to him. He’s got enough stuff and enough feel to make that transition.”
