Additionally, I found these prospect nuggets about Moore;
- 8th round pick by TB in the 2007 MLB draft
- Former N.M. 4A player of the year
- Scout quoted as saying Moore possesses an "overpowering" fastball
- Clocked as high as 94 MPH in high school
- By all accounts, his secondary offerings need work
- Brother pitches or pitched at the University of New Mexico
- Comes from a military family
I placed him on my watch list, but am waiting for more information before using a roster spot on him. In extremely deep leagues, he might be worth a flyer, but I would hold off for now and monitor him closely. It's probably too late for a promotion at this point, but I'd love to see it. A 0.64 ERA and 17/5 K/BB ratio in 14 August innings warrants it.

Ive been watching Moore also. The depth of the Rays farm system for pitching prospects has me looking elsewhere until he passes others or gets dealt.
You have a point. The same could be said about Boscan in that case. However, in many deep leagues waiting until a logjam clears itself up means missing out out guys. Take the Rangers catching situation for example. If a player is good enough to push the pile, that's usually exactly what happens. It remains to be seen if Moore will be that good.
you can't discount the fact that he is a lefty and only 19...
True, even if he spends the entire year in A- full season next year, he will still be 20 and on track for a promising career.
He's a really cool guy!!!!!!!
