The Philadelphia Phillies select a different kind of two-way player in MLB Pipeline mock draft.
are projected to take a very interesting player in a new mock draft. In MLB Pipeline's newest projections, Jonathan Mayo has the Phillies slated to take Jurrangelo Cijntje, an ambidexterous pitcher from Mississippi State. There hasn't been a pitcher of his skillset in MLB since Pat Venditte.
In 14 games, he pitched to an 8.10 ERA and despite his ability to miss a lot of bats, sporting an 11.3 K/9, he struggled with control. In the 50 innings he threw that season, he walked 34 batters, ending up with a 6.1 BB/9. When talking about Cijntje, the fact that he pitches both right and left handed is always going to be the first thing that comes up. However, much like a switch hitter, he is better from one side of the mound than the other. Although he is a natural lefty, Cijntje is a better prospect from the right side.
Most think that as a southpaw, he would end up a reliever despite there not being much velocity. According the his, he would be a "Marcus Stroman-esuqe" pitcher from the right side. Clearly, his future in pro ball is as a right handed pitcher, especially if he can be a starter touching 98.
