Endl went 10-2, 2.34 and hit .411-18-63 as a senior at NCAA Division III Wisconsin- Whitewater to earn a spot on Baseball America's Small College All-America Team in 2004. The lefthander, who also earned academic all-America honors and is a substitute teacher in the offseason, has risen rapidly as a pro thanks to his knowledge of pitching and ability to use both sides of the plate. He was leading the Carolina League in ERA before undergoing season-ending surgery on his non-throwing shoulder in early August. Endl is expected to be back at full strength in spring training, throwing his 88-92 mph fastball along with his slider, curve and a changeup he just began incorporating into his arsenal last season. He does a good job of moving his pitches around in the strike zone, but needs to gain more consistency with his overall pitch quality and location. The Braves rave about Endl's poise. He's slated for Double-A in 2006.
