Al Skorupa at Bullpen Banter has a fantastic in-depth scouting report up today of Drew Hutchison, complete with video and breakdown of his mechanics, fastball, slider and change-up. This is the most complete scouting report I've seen on Hutchison and a tremendous read.

Bullpen Banter also started its Top 100 countdown today, with 5 prospects and discussion posted each day. These are also very good infomation sources and I would recommend checking them out.

Thanks MjwW

Al worked very hard on this piece, and it shows. I know I speak for him when I say we appreciate the support.

Back up now

Sorry for the inconvenience.

The article proved a little too popular and crashed the host for the gifs. Moved them and relaunched. Should be good now.

Pat Hentgen article part 5

Here, Pat compares Drew to a young Marcum (but with a little more heat)

I forgot about that

Remember reading the series, but at the time the name didn’t mean much (I wasn’t really following the minors). Hentgen really hit the nail on the head with that one, in terms of calling the breakout

Nice writeup, I liked the info on his secondary pitches

I had heard the change was a plus pitch but knew nothing about his slider or his two-seam fastball.

I loved this bit:

Please note that Hutchison has no “N” in the middle of his name. I’ve seen it often misspelled “Hutchinson.”

Hic sunt fortuna dracones
There is only 1 "n" in Hutchison
