    Righthander Brett Jensen hasn't been as dominant as when he set a Cornhuskers record with 16 saves a year ago, but he still has been tough to hit. Jensen gives batters a different look, as a 6-foot-7, 190-pounder who pitches from a sidearm angle. He gets a lot of life on his fastball, which has sat at 88-90 mph at times and at 85-87 at others this spring. His keys in pro ball will be to develop a more consistent slider and to trust his changeup more against lefthanders. A senior, he turned down the Nationals as a 23rd-rounder a year ago.
