07/14/2008 - College PREP - Cedar Hill (DFW), TX Brier is a young RHP with near above average arm strength. His fast ball is heavy displaying sink and run. He does need more development of his off speed pitches. Breaking balls shows a tight spin with a 10/4 shape but struggles with release point. Change up is average showing some sink. His best off speed pitch is his split finger that works best with his arm action. Delivery is solid but needs some polish and work on mechanics. Kruse is young with time to develop and if off speed pitches come around, he will get some looks from the college coaches.
