Blackwell A Prospect To Watch
Creek grad Shawn Blackwell was named by Baseball Prospectus author Kevin Goldstein as a player to watch in the Texas Rangers organization.
When asked which Rangers prospects can potentially move into Goldstein’s “Top 11 Prospects” list in 2011, he mentioned Blackwell.
“Blackwell is a big kid with three pitches, and that is always a good starting point,” Goldstein said in an interview with Baseball Time in Arlington writer Jason Parks. “He has a very impressive arm, and he was a very nice sign for Texas. He’s a guy, much like (Jurick) Profar, who you have to give Texas a lot of credit for identifying and signing.”
Blackwell was drafted by the Rangers in the 24th round (724th overall) of the Major League Baseball first-year player draft last summer after a stellar career at Creek. He signed with the Rangers in August.
