LHP Josh Smoker (EC Braves): Now throwing consistently in the low 90’s with the same type of polish he showed as an 86-88 pitcher. 2. RHP Brandon Hamilton (Knoxville Yard): Pro body with present pro stuff. Threw 90-93 with a true mid-80’s slider with good tilt. 3. RHP Jarrod Parker (Summit City Sluggers): The hardest thrower at the 17U championship, Parker touched 95 mph and doesn’t use much effort to do it. 4. RHP Evan Danieli (NJ Twins): Threw 88-92 but more impressively, can spin the ball and repeat his delivery at 6-8. 5.
