Predict End of Season 2016 Top Prospects

Kodi's issue with control is a mix of youth/learning art of pitching & how lively and nasty his movement is. Right now he more just throws it & lets the movement do the rest.. He needs learn to harness stuff which you hope comes with age, experience, & good coaching.

From what I have heard he does not control the ball well in the zone.

 

Typically that would lead to a lot of home runs a la Dave Bush or Marco Estrada.

Wow if his control is concerning and he still only gives up a .228 AVG., 0 HR, 3.28 GO/FO ratio, 9.8 K/9, and a sub 3.00 FIP as a 19 year old that was placed aggressively then I am really excited to see what he does in the future.

 

Yes there are some control issues, but he has been phenomenal outside of that. He has serious stuff and if he can polish up he can be a real force. Easily has the highest ceiling of any pitcher the Brewers have if you ask me. Seriously the kid is only 19...he has so much time to grow.

Maybe eventually. Not necessarily if there is enough movement. We'll se what happens when he gets to the higher levels where the players can handle a breaking ball better.
