A+: Dillon Gee RHP
A+: 8-6, 3.25 ERA, 21 GS, 127.1 IP, 117 H, 49 R, 46 ER, 6 HR, 19 BB, 94 K
AA: 2-0, 1.33 ERA, 4 GS, 27 IP, 18 H, 4 R, 4 ER, 1 HR, 5 BB, 20 K
Gee’s 3.25 ERA was 7th best in the FSL.
What he is: A 22 year old RHP who had a very nice 2008 with superb control. Gee is a three pitch guy working off a 89-91 mph fastball, an soft curveball (69-75) and a changeup which had some movement the night I saw him in Florida.
Where he came from: The Mets drafted Gee in the 21st round in 2007 from UT-Arlington
When he grows up: It’s impossible to project stardom for a righty with a fringy fastball. However, Gee throws so many strikes that he cruised up to double-A in his first full professional season, and for a 21st round draft pick, that’s a success story in itself. He should begin 2009 where he ended 2008; with the B-Mets.
Other Good Candidates: None really. Dylan Owen was a possibility
