He was a late-inning stud all through college and continued in his first pro year. He has an 88-90 fastball with a good slider. He's an outstanding strike thrower, missing bats down in the zone with a low, three-quarters delivery. He has presence, confidence and instincts on the mound with a history of success.

He was nails in Fort Wayne.

We're trying to blend these two things so they're working in unison, so they're not working against each other. It's hard to draft the type of players you want if you're not positive in the development plan, and it's not an indicator to have success to have a development plan that doesn't mirror the type of players that you get attracted to you.

You have to let them go if you know they're going to be able to handle the bad day; handle the life, handle the pressure, the intensity. If he gets things rocking and rolling the right way, I'm not going to stand in his way.

We really like Cesar. He has everything you're looking for.

Looking at the young players we have from Latin America, I've seen some interesting players.
