I was a huge fan of the Hernandez pick when we made it. To me one of the highest (if not the highest) upside LH starters in the system.

College junior passed over in the draft, able to sign with anyone. No team controls his rights.

Not sure how because he is a Junior in College and a free agent? Anyone know how that’s possible?

Anyway, college lefty. Go here for the videos. Search for “Bileckyj” There are like 8 videos which are each infuriatingly 2-4 seconds each. Learn to stitch, Lessons2go!

At draft time he was 6’1″ and 200ish lbs and had a sinking FB that sat in the upper 80s and hit 90-91 at times. He also had a good CB and the makings of a good CH. His command was very good and was known as a smart pitcher. He also had good mechanics. He is 20 yrs old and his stats indicated he regressed from 2009 to 2010 though he was in different leagues those 2 years. Haven’t seen anything written on him since. I remember I was high on the pick when we made it for the round we got him in.

After the numbers he put up at JC last year, I guess I’m a little surprised to see him get the opening day nod.
