Miguel Del Pozo

Organization Prospect Rankings

• 
  Ranked Miami Marlins #27 prospect in 2015
  Del Pozo showed an average curveball as an amateur and everything else was below-average, including his fastball, which now touches 96 mph. His curve, at times a bit slurvy, has a nice bite and finish, and the Marlins love his makeup. One talent evaluator identified Del Pozo as the safest bet to reach the majors among Marlins pitching prospects. Working exclusively in relief in the first half of 2014, he went 0-4, 6.15. He was a different pitcher after the break, lowering his ERA to 3.62 and holding opponents to a .233 average. Del Pozo also throws an average changeup with good action from a deceptive delivery, and he works with an aggressive tempo. The Marlins are debating whether to try Del Pozo, who logged 164 innings through four seasons, in a starting role at high Class A Jupiter thanks to his three-pitch mix.
