MLB Draft 2014: Marlins select Tyler Kolek with No. 2 pick image

The Miami Marlins have selected Tyler Kolek, a RHP from Shepherd (Texas) HS, with the No. 2 pick in the 2014 MLB Draft.

Here’s what some experts have to say about him:

"Simply put, Kolek has the best fastball of the prep class, and maybe of any pitcher in the entire draft class, college included. It routinely hits the 97-99 range, and some have seen triple digits on their radar. He doesn’t command it exceptionally well yet, but if that comes, look out." — MLB Draft Insider's Christopher Crawford

"No one in this draft class throws as hard as consistently." — MLB.com's Jim Callis
