Prospect of the Day:  RHP Cody Ponce, Helena

With the 55th-overall pick in the 2015 draft, the Brewers selected right-hander Cody Ponce. The organization had been connected to the big hurler in the week leading up to the draft, with some suggesting he was in the conversation for the 15th pick, so it ultimately was an unsurprising selection when he was available in the second round. Ponce can run his fastball up to 95-96 mph and shows flashes of three-or-four pitches, depending on the outing. I spoke to one non-Brewers scout after the draft, who raved about Ponce and said he was “all in” on the Cal Poly Pomona alum. After a quality pro debut with the Helena Brewers, it will be interesting to see how the righty responds to a jump in competition. He competed against lesser talent in Division II; however, he performed very well in the Cape Cod League, so perhaps that concern isn’t as warranted as it would otherwise seem on the surface.
