Walker Buehler is a 6'1", 160 pound right handed pitcher for Vanderbilt University who was drafted in the 14th round of the 2012 MLB Rule 4 draft by the Pittsburgh Pirates, but went on to pitch for the Commodores. Buehler has four pitches, a good fastball, curveball, slider and change, giving him a nice repertoire. Buehler does not put full effort into his delivery, but he has had some trouble repeating it, which has given him control issues at times. I believe that Buehler will start, and it is unlikely that a team picking him in the first round would view him as a reliever; although some people are concerned about his small size, I don't think that it should effect his path to the big leagues. His fastball is his best pitch, usually sitting 90-94, but he can get it up to 96 with ease, and puts good movement on it, his slider and curveball usually receive 50-55 grades, but some scouts say there is no clear difference between the two pitches, and instead call it a slurve, but I think that he will be able to use both a curve and slider at the next level, his changeup is considered average. I view Buehler as a high floor/low ceiling type guy, who should fit into the middle of a big league rotation, and could be on the fast track to the big leagues. The Twins are said to like Buehler, and have been watching him for quite some time, but he was set back by injuries, giving him less time to be evaluated, but personally I view Buehler as a 10-15 guy, but since he won't be around at #73 the Twins probably wouldn't hesitate to take him if the other players that are higher on their draft board are gone at #6.
