Braves Quote And Video For The Day ... Brandon Beachy

The only Braves prospect listed on this week's Baseball America Prospect Hot Sheet is pitcher Brandon Beachy. For those who don't know, Beachy was undrafted out of Indiana Wesleyan University in 2008 and signed with the Braves. Since then he's rocketed through the Braves system and firmly established himself as one of the organizations top-5 pitching prospects this season. Money quote from BA:

Triple-A hasn't slowed down the 23-year-old, who in his last two starts has a 13-0 K-BB mark with three runs allowed in 11 innings

Beachy was interviewed by Kelly Boring from Fox Sports South last Monday:


Great interview. Told me just about everything I wanted to know about Beachy.

He’s such a great guy. Awesome to see the success he’s had. Pretty neat to be able to say I was at his first start this year.

I wrote a novel, it's about baseball, you should buy it:

Kelly Boring? What an unfortunate last name.

But good stuff on the video. Nice to see our guys success.

She makes up for it with her connections to baseball and attractive figure.

Anyone have a synopsis of the interview?

Firewalls are a pain.

Don't kiss an ass if it's in the process of shitting on you.

I really would like to see this guy pitch. He definitely seems like a genuinely nice guy. Keep up the good work!

I’m thinking that we will be seeing Beachy and Diamond in spring training next season. Hopefully Stephen Marek will get a look at some point as well.

Marek's on the 40...

So I wouldn’t be surprised to see him in September.

Glad to see such a story in the Braves minors!

I hope everything works out for this kid and he gets his big shot sometime in he near future. Keep up the good work Brandon!

Nice story. SUPER nice guy. Hope things continue to go his way and he makes it to the show!

Well that's just Beachy!

It had to be done.

Anyway, that was a great watch (though it didn’t tell me the main thing I wanted to know, but we won’t get into that). I hope we see him up in the bigs in the near future!

He looked single to me.

LOL

Thank you. I thought so as well.

Cool interview. Can’t wait to see what he can do next year. I twas funny when a guy on some blog named BB his #33 best prospect & everyone got on his case saying he shouldn’t even be in the top #100. The guy came form a tiny school & has been pitching great. Im sure he’s not the 1st guy un drafted to turn into a good prospect.

Whatever happened to the Mid-Season Community top 30 list?

Pre Season list is still shown on the home page. I ranked Beachy 8th and felt like a fool. Not anymore!

Heyward is pretty good

Cool video

Easy to watch…..
Hope to see him pitching in the Ted in the near future.

You can help other people, but you can never live their lives for them.
