2004 Top Draft Pick
Eric Campbell
Left-handed pitcher Taylor Tankersley, taken 27th overall out of the University of Alabama, went 1-1
with a 3.38 ERA in six starts for Class-A Jamestown. He doesn't have an overpowering fastball, but his bulldog mentality and smarts
make him a solid candidate to move
quickly through the system. The son of a nuclear physicist, he received a $1.3 million signing bonus and
should start 2005 at Class A Greensboro.

Difference Maker
New closer Guillermo Mota is an interesting choice as Armando Benitez's replacement. It would be difficult for anyone to follow a 47-save performance like the one Benitez mounted in his one-and-done South Florida tenure. But Mota, a career setup man through his first six big league seasons, has blown 11 of his 16 save chances. He also wore down at the end of last season, when he went 0-3 after Sept. 1 and his ERA ballooned to 7.79 in his final 14 outings. He has an overpowering fastball at times but tends to lean too much on his changeup, which he learned from ex-Dodgers teammate Eric Gagne. More power and less finesse would suit Mota well.
