Generally, a delivery with effort, or inconsistent repeatability means you’ll be a reliever eventually. It’s why I think Swagerty is a reliever in the end.

Though, if you’re raw and only have two pitches with the ability to be average or above, you’re generally a reliever as well.

Mills sounds like both to me.

My guess is he is 2 pitch pitcher.

I wish they would have expanded on that. Why?

http://www.futureredbirds.net/2011/05/25/draft-prospects-visiting-busch-stadium/
Tyler Mills, RHP, University of Michigan … 6-2, 200 … Age: 21 – Mills is a draft-eligible redshirt sophomore. He was All-State in high school, but his results have not matched his previous achievements since joining Michigan. He is finally a full-time member of the pitching staff and has a 5.66 ERA this season with 29 Ks in 35 innings. This would be a player the Cards would draft for his projectability and potential – not off his current stats.

He seems to have the raw stuff. Another year of seasoning could push him into the top 4-5 rounds.
