WTM’S PIRATE PLAYER PROFILES

Creasy has a projectable frame, but so far only throws in the upper 80s, touching 90 MPH.  He has good mechanics, with loose arm action that projects for added velocity going forward.  He keeps his fastball down in the zone, and also throws a curveball.  He was the #40 prospect out of North Carolina and had a commitment to NC State, but signed with the Pirates in mid-July.

2011
R:  0-0-0, 1.69 ERA, 1.88 WHIP, 5.1 IP, 5.1 BB/9, 5.1 K/9

Got into three GCL games late in the season.

The Pirates generally push their more highly regarded high school pitching prospects up to State College the year after they’re drafted, so that’s where Creasy is likely to head.
