Analysis:
Willie Hood- Already 23 years old the right-hander has a starter's frame but lacks the command typical of a starter. It would not be surprising to see Cleveland try to work with Morehouse as a starting pitcher to work on a third pitch. However, it seems probable that he'll be deployed as a bullpen piece. The soon-to-be former Texas Longhorns righty sits 93 to 95 and touches 97 mph. He has a gyro slider in the 80's and deploys a change-up on occasion but it's underdeveloped at this point. The right-hander generates a low approach angle from a ¾ arm slot. Morehouse has a lean athletic frame with the potential to add additional strength (even as a 23-year-old) with that, possibly more velocity. This could be a good partnership between an underdeveloped talent and a good pitching development organization. Morehouse started his collegiate career at Dyersburg State before transferring for his last two seasons at Texas.
