Here’s a quick scouting report on the three pitchers the Chicago Cubs acquired in today’s Derrek Lee. I’ll add more as more information becomes available:

Robinson Lopez: He’s a 6-foot-2, 190 pound 19-year-old right-handed pitcher from the Dominican Republic. Lopez is 3-8 with a 4.37 ERA for the Low Single-A Rome Braves with a 6.80 SO/9 and 1.37 WHIP.

According to ScoutingTheSally.com, he has showed elite velocity (mid-90’s fastball) and the ability to handle older competition. He works quickly at attacking hitters with a fastball and he can work on either side of the plate. He mixes in the curveball when ahead in the count and rarely throws the changeup in game action.

He has a problem working out from the stretch and his tempo slow significantly with men on base.

Curveball is at 76-78MPH and has a good feel for his changeup.

Ty’Relle Harris: 23-year-old right-handed pitcher who pitched for the University of Tennesee. He’s a big guy at 6-foot-4 and 235 pounds. He is a combined 1-2 with a 2.90 ERA in 30 appearances (1 start) in the Minors this season. He has a 10.87 SO/9 and 1.21 WHIP.

Jeff Sullivan of the SBNation says that Harris has a career upside in middle relief.

Harris was accused of assault and vandalism charges while a sophomore pitcher at the University of Pacific in January 2007 and was kicked off the team, according to CBS13 news. The report says that he slapped an 18-year-old female UOP student then broke her house window. Given the information at hand, it’s unknown if he was found guilty of the crime. One reader at Bleed Cubbie Blue found an article by Jason Anderson of the Record.

Harris, speaking publicly for the first time in an exclusive interview with The Record late Monday night, said he received stitches in his hand and wrist after several of the woman’s friends “jumped” him during a party at a north Stockton home.

“The girl got in my face, we started arguing back and forth, and then she slapped me,” Harris said. “All her guy friends jumped on me, and it became a brawl right away. She’s still right there in my face, and I’m just fighting. I’m flailing and swinging and trying to get guys off me, and she got hit with an open hand. I just hit her out of the way.”

Harris combined for a no-hitter in early August when he three 3 1/3 innings. He struck out six and walked one in his Double-A debut.

Jeffrey Lorick: 22-year-old left-handed pitcher who pitched for the University of Viginia. Drafted by the Atlanta Braves in the 20th round (598th overall) of the 2009 draft. In 2010, he is a combined 3-6 with a 2.24 ERA in 27 appearances for both the Myrtle Beach and Rome Minor League teams. He has a 7.39 SO/9 and a 1.22 WHIP.

Jeff Sullivan of SBNation says that Lorick “doesn’t have a ton of raw stuff and, as a collegiate arm, has been putting up just average numbers against younger competition.”

When he was drafted by the Braves in 2009, he had a low-90’s fastball.

Rotoworld.com says that Lorick is “far from a “top-of-the-line” pitching prospect at this point.
